RegEx Replace Text -- strip leading and trailing spaces

[Matt Denton]

Hi Wouter and Trevor

Thanks for the replies.  Yes Trevor, I had a similar line of code and I 
couldn't work out why it didn't strip the RHS whitespace.  Anyway I was 
using RegEx because I thought it would be faster, but how elegant is:

> get word 1 to -1 of pString

... thanks so much Wouter!

Trevor I'll keep your:

> get matchText(pString, "(?s)^[ \t\r\n]+(.*?)[ \t\r\n]+$", tReturnVal)

... tucked away, I'm still getting my head around RegEx and some of its 
peculiarities and really I just want to understand what I was doing 
wrong.  Plus I thought I'd get a speed improvement, looks like not.

Thanks again,
