Question : Trim text type field in sql server

Hi,

What function can  I use to trim a text type field in sql server?  The user is trying to use web merge application and the data is showing up with some nasty carriage returns/line feed.

I tried rtrim but it does not like this type of data field.  As well, I tried this  on the field after retrieval from database...this is in peoplecode:


   
         &FIND_QUOTE3 = Find(Char(10), &RecLine.DESCRLONG.Value);
         If &FIND_QUOTE3 > 0 Then
            &NEWSTR3 = Substitute(&RecLine.DESCRLONG.Value, Char(10), "");
            &RecLine.DESCRLONG.Value = &NEWSTR3;
         End-If;
         
         &FIND_QUOTE4 = Find(Char(13), &RecLine.DESCRLONG.Value);
         If &FIND_QUOTE4 > 0 Then
            &NEWSTR4 = Substitute(&RecLine.DESCRLONG.Value, Char(13), "");
            &RecLine.DESCRLONG.Value = &NEWSTR4;
         End-If;

>>the data is showing up with some nasty carriage returns/line feed.<<
If they really are CrLf then it is CHAR(13) + CHAR(10).
