I've been caught out with ALLTRIM

I was under the impression that lcMemo=alltrim(mymemo) would remove
blank
lines and return the essential details of the memo
In my system, I need to know details of the very first line of a memo.
In
case the 1st line is blank, it use alltrim, and then
lcLine=mline(lcMemo,1)

It returns a blank
What is a better way?
AllTrim(Mymemo, 1, " ", chr(10), chr(13))

Will do what you are looking for.

Sytze, as Tracy points out, spaces and returns (chr(13) and chr(10)) are not the same thing.
