 >> Does anyone have a function to strip extraneous spaces out of a field?

I have used the C function strtok for this purpose.  Specify space as the
delimiter and since it ignores all consecutive delimiters, it just feeds you
back the individual "fields".  See the RPG Redbook "Who knew you could do
......." at www.redbooks.ibm.com for a worked example.
