Remove trailing spaces from file

I'm currently writing my sql results to a file and they have trailing spaces after each field. I want to get rid of these spaces and I'm using this code:

TVXTEMP=$(echo $TVXTEMP|sed -e 's/\ //g')

It doesn't work though. I'm not familiar with sedscript, and the other codes I've found online also does not work..

My file output is:
Code:
4531010001            |fname,lastname             |fieldvalue2             |fieldvalue3

I want remove all the trailing spaces from the file:
4531010001|fname,lastname|fieldvalue2|fieldvalue3

Thanks Smilie
