 Newbie Help - Trim function in Label

I am trying to teach myself how to program. I want to set up a screen where a
label would read "city" "state" and "zip" leaving out all spaces etc.

I know this involves the Trim function. But how can I use it?

I have read how to use Trim in Crystal Reports but can not find anywhere how
to put it on a simple screen for a simple address program. Any help
appreciated.

If possible please email answer.

Thanks.

I guess you want to read city, state, and zip into a label?  What are you
reading it FROM?  Give and example.  What exactly does the string or
strings look like before the process, and what does the string or strings
look like after the process.  Then maybe I can describe the process.  You
may need more then the trim function.  Trim only removes leading and
trailing spaces.
