No, just place SmartTrim_IT() in the field expression.

In the UDF put something like:
Function SmartTrim_IT
* Creates a mailing address 
local lcAddress
lcAddress=''
if ....
  
endif
return m.lcAddress
You should write the code of this function by yourself.

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
