Trim all fields on load

I need to trim all fields I receive in my load script.

Unfortunately LOAD trim(*) as * is not an option.

At this time I need to adjust the script for many field from 'fieldname' to trim('fieldname') as 'fieldname'. A tedious work.

I've looked around for some smart search and replace editor but no luck.

Any ideas?

Try using RTrim(LTrim(FieldName) as FieldName

Thanks...

Sorry, but how does that Help me?

Have you found any ideas? I have a similar issue that I need to trim only the right for every single field in my script. I know currently there is Verbatim that can be set to keep or remove trailing and leading spaces, but I have not seen any options to do only one side.
