Could you post a short but complete program which demonstrates the
problem?

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.

My *guess* is that you think it changes the string you call it on - it
doesn't, as strings are immutable. Instead, it returns a new string
which is a trimmed version of the old string.
