Hmm... okay, I stand corrected.

I think I was confusing myself with If statements.

String1 = 'ABC   '
String2 = 'ABC'

C           If    String1 = String2   (Evaluates to True or '1')

Okay, so all that needs to be done is to take the %Trim out and look
at the logic a little more closely.

Regards,

Jim Langston
