Default Mergefield Formatting - Trim function? Word 2000

Hello,

Is there a way of 'trimming' a field in a merge? I have been supplied a data
file and one of the fields has trailing spaces which are being read as
character spaces. I suspect it is just a case of 'ask the person supplying
the data to correct it' however I just thought I would ask.

Many thanks,
Chris
