TRIMming of loval

What's wrong with this picture , or, does trim only trim blanks and not 
nulls?
         select;
         when InitNameFmt=0;
          curlibout=C_LIBRARY;
         when InitNameFmt=1;
          curdirout=%trim(C_DIRECTORY);
         other;
          // Error - this choice location for rent
         EndSl;
         CurDirOutLen=%len(%trim(curdirout));
         dump(a);
CURDIROUT             CHAR(100)            '  
                        81                 '                    '   
                      VALUE IN HEX
