You do or do not want to trim spaces?

ltrim() - trims left

rtrim() - trims right.

Its not that I do or do not want to use those functions, the thing is they dont work.

I tried converting it to varchar,char, then ltrim/rtrim but somehow it does not work.

Please let me know if you have any other options.

Thanks,

Chandra

I just ran

SELECT command,len(command) FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobsteps

and didn't see and spaces at the end of command, are you talking about the grid output in query analyser?
