In VFP9 you could use RTRIM() function

cString = RTRIM(cString,0, SPACE(1), CHR(10), CHR(13))
* or 
cString = RTRIM(cString, SPACE(1), CHR(10), CHR(13))

>cString = "This is what I want to keep!"                         + ;
>          Space (10) + Chr (13) + Chr (10) + Chr (13) + Chr (10) + ;
>          Space ( 1) + Chr (13) + Chr (10) + ;
>          Space ( 1)
