Subject: Concatenate two strings spacing issue

I know that I can easil concatenate two strings with the CAT 
function, 
however is there a way to eliminate any excess spacing?

In this particular case I have two strings which are 50 and 
10 char in 
length respectively.....I am concatenating the 10 char to the 
end of the 50 
but there are times where the 50 char string does not have 
anywhere close to 
50 and I'd like to strip out those spaces if possible.

I have tried using the trimR and TRIML functions but that did 
not seem to 
help.....

Suggestions?


If you bought it, it was hauled by a truck - somewhere, sometime.
