RE: %TRIMR

Eval will always left justify.  %TRIMR removes trailing blanks only.  To 
remove leading blanks, use %TRIM, which removes leading & trailing blanks 
or %TRIML.   If you want to right justify it, you may need to use more 
logic than this to right justify a character field.  HTH.

 LOCATION will have the value '  Toronto, Ontario'.

                  EVAL      LOCATION = %TRIMR('  Toronto, Ontario  ')


This doesn't work like it's supposed to. The result is left-justified
(with the leading blank), not right-justified. Any ideas or suggestions?
