Atul, If you need to stop spaces at the left or right side of the data string use LTRIM() and RTRIM(). For spaces in the string you will need to use REPLACE($FieldID$," ","") You may need to check for additional spaces and loop through the string. I think REPLACE() will only affect the first instance of the " ". All of these are best done in a filter as a set fields action. HTH,

The data can be entered using the user tool/ mid-tier and webservice/import tool. We are on ARS 6.3, Oracle 10g and Solaris.
