Default delete trailing space in column

Have you tried =TRIM(ref)? In a column next to these dates, insert this
formula and copy down. Then copy the trimmed data and paste special as values
Then delete the incorrect column

The only problem is, when I attempt to change format, it wont take.
Found out the problem is a trailing space at end.

I have tried several delete space codes, but to no avail.

Please.... any suggestions to delete trailing spaces?
