Hi Tarran!

You could create a new PUBLIC FUNCTION in your code-behind file which contains all your Trims and Replaces.

Assume your public function is called doSomething():

webform.aspx.vb

public function doSomething(byval cValue as string) as string
     return trim(cValue)
end function

webform.aspx

... doSomething(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"FieldName"))

HTH

DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "FieldName")

and I am curious how I would manipulate this information that is being binded?
