Trim whitespaces in TestStand Step

[L_A_B]

Hi!

I was working on a project which required LabVIEW 2011 and TestStand 2010. The software had lots of LV modules already created. I reused some of them. However, I needed to trim whitespaces in TestStand which were coming from the string outputs of these LV modules. Nevertheless, I was surprised to discover that there is no TRIM string function in TestStand at all. I had to create a simple VI which just trimmed the whitespaces. I couldn't modify the previously created modules because they were used elsewhere and could affect the outcome of the other test systems. Why does TestStand lack this simple functionality?

Trim(), TrimStart(), and TrimEnd() were added to the TestStand expression language in TestStand 2012.
