LTrim
Returns a copy of a string with any leading spaces removed.
Syntax
LTrim(Val)
Parameters
Val
Type: Text
Text value from which you want to remove leading spaces. See also Specifying text strings as arguments.
(return)
Type: Text
Copy of Val with leading spaces removed.
Remarks
LTrim removes white space (such as space and tab characters) that appears at the beginning of the input string. LTrim uses the rules of the input locale when interpreting white space.
If the current data value is NULL, Val is "" and the return value is "".
Example
This example uses the LTrim function to return a copy of the contents of the address variable with any leading spaces removed:
address.LTrim()
