Drew:
It looks as though Andreas has your root problem fixed. If you still need
to perform the trim, you can use
string newString = oldString.Trim('\0') (note the single quotes, not double
quotes)
I'm not sure why String.Trim(null); doesn't work. According to the help, it
should be exactly what you are after.
