<div id="ygrps-yiv-974612785">Has anyone figured out how to truncate or trim the &quot;~&quot; from a field? I have<br/>
the following calculated field set up TRIM(SalesRepList,~ ) and it is not<br/>
changing the result from what I get when using the salesreplist by itself.<br/>
Any ideas?<br/>
<br/>
Thanks,<br/>
<br/>
