This is pretty weird. I tried this on VFP6 SP5

? VAL('$95.0000                    ') &&returns 65631
? VAL('$95.0000                   ') &&returns 95.0010
? VAL(trim('$95.00                     ')) &&returns 95.0000
? VAL('$95.00ABCDEFGHILMNOHJYUIKDD') &&returns 95.0010
? VAL('$95.00                     '+'0') &&returns 65631
? VAL('    $95.00                     ') &&returns 95.0000
? VAL('     $95.00ABCDEFGHILMNOHJYUIKDD') &&returns 195.0000
? VAL('    $95 .00                     ')&&returns 195.0000
? VAL('    $95  .00                     ') &&returns 145.0000
? VAL('    $95   .00                     ') &&returns 95.0000
? VAL('    $95    .00                     ') &&errors with currency value is out of range
