I have tried countless routnies and several DLL's to strip the white space at the right hand side of these emails (attached), and can not figure it out.
any ideas

What's wrong with stepping through each line and doing a @trim() ??

Just did a small test:
| Code: | list create,1
list create,2
list loadfile,1,X:\space emails.txt
%%stop = 0
repeat
%%item = @next(1)
if @not(@ok())
%%stop = 1
end
list add,2,@trim(%%item)
until @equal(%%stop,1)
list savefile,2,X:\out.txt |
Works just fine with the file you put out for download.

Maybe write some code to find out what the ascii values of the last few
characters of each line is. Your answer may be hidden there.

Garrett I looked at the file with a hex editor and there is nothing but @cr()@lf() at the end of each line except the very last line.
Nathan have you tried the code above from Dr. Dread yet?
