Removing Spaces in Text Data

Hello,

In MS Access I have a field that contains data which looks like this example, GZQ 678239; GZQ 014312; etc. How do I remove the spaces to make it become (not just look like) GZQ678239; GZQ014312; etc. I noticed the trim function but don't think it applies here?

Thanks for your help,

John

Thanks for the help, appreciate it. I had actually looked at it again and solved my own problem. I used find and replaced, found any space, and replaced it with nothing, and it worked like a bomb, but thanks anyway.
