Mike, Ed ...
We had thought of using something like the examples you mentioned for our application however we only wanted to remove leading spaces and carriage returns that occured before the first character. We didn't want to remove spaces or carriage returns elsewhere in the memo field if the user entered them.
Is there a simple modification to the code samples you wrote that will handle removing leading carriage returns and leading spaces only?. If so I would love to use it and get out of the loop I wrote in a previous post.
