Appreciate all the help.

I tried the editreplace as it seemed to be the easiest solution and put a
space in the Find What field and nothing in the Replace field. That did not
work. It only worked for the few fields in which there was no character
string and just a space.

Will proceed to try the other suggestions.

if indeed the only spaces are at the end and nowhere else where they might
be needed you could also do an editreplace and replace space with nothing
(don't put anything in the replace box)

I have spreadsheets with tens of thousands of fields containing data. All
of
the data consists of a string of characters followed by a space. In the
end
I need to save the spreadsheet in a .csv format, WITHOUT the space in each
field.

Can anyone suggest a quick way to do this? Your help is appreciated.
