I have a text box that a user is allowed to enter what ever text they wish. I then take the text store it in a Database, and at a later time print it in a document. All that part I have done. The problem I'm having is I have a client that hits return at the end of their last sentance.

What I'm looking to do is take out any whitespace or un-needed carriage returns at the end of the string.
