September 24th, 1999, 02:31 AM
I have a string that will always be 75 spaces then a url, i.e.
"(insert 75 spaces here)www.hotmail.com"
My question is how can i take those spaces out without refuring to the url, since it will be different everytime and may or may not have http:// or www. ?
Thanks in Advance.

Hi
How about something like :
'
' sUrl is your string with 75 spaces then a Url
'
Dim sTemp as string
If len(sUrl) > 75 then
sTemp = Right$(sUrl, len(sUrl) - 75)
sUrl = sTemp
End If

Hi!
I think the solution given by Chris Eastwood is ok, still one more solution
to this ,is to use ltrim(sting name), which will clear all the left
whitespaces swithout disturbing the url.
thanks.

If your trying to strip all of the spaces off of the left side of a string try the Ltrim$() function.
