<p><b>New page</b></p><div><p>The $UNBLANK function returns the contents of an argument, removing leading and trailing blanks, and compressing multiple embedded blanks to one blank character. $UNBLANK is useful in conjunction with $READ. The user can respond to prompts for retrievals or comparisons in free form, without regard for leading, trailing, or embedded blanks. See the second example.</p><br />
<b>Example 1</b><br />
<p class="code">$UNBLANK(' JOHN JONES ') equals 'JOHN JONES'<br />
$UNBLANK('WASH., D.C.') equals 'WASH., D.C.' <br />
</p><br />
<b>Example 2</b><br />
<p class="code">BEGIN<br />
%A = $UNBLANK($READ('ENTER VALUE'))<br />
FIND.RECS: FIND ALL RECORDS FOR WHICH<br />
FIELD = %A<br />
END FIND<br />
