tkinter textbox

i am using textbox (textbox1) for input in my program and storing it in string as:
Text=textbox1.get(0.0,END)
and then validating the Text but problem is that it is also taking spaces as input in Text but i want Text only to store string not spaces.is there any form of get() function to take only string not spaces upto END becoz my program then is not validating the correct string

You should use string methods to eliminate any unwanted spaces in the assignment. Example that eliminates leading and trailing spaces:
Text=textbox1.get(0.0,END).strip()
