>I am useing an EditBox to enter a drawing title into my table. After the title is input there are extra chractors in the string, two heavey vertical bars. This causes a problem when I need to include this string in SPT. How can I strip these charactors?

Most likely it's the end of line combination CRLF. Try

* Editbox LostFocus
This.Value = CHTRAN(This.Value, CHR(13)+CHR(10), "")
*Or Editbox Keypress
LPARAMETERS nKeyCode, nShiftAltCtrl
IF nKeyCode=13
  NODEFAULT
