Remove extra space in middle of text

J

JS

I have a field that has 2 spaces in the middle in some of the fields that are
in a table. For example... Accounting--(0001), where a - represents a single
space. some others do not have the 2 spaces... Marketing-(0002) I tried
using the following trim formula but it doesn't trim it down for me.
=trim([field name]) Any suggestions?
