also instead of calling a function many times
create a function or a proct
Sample incomming string

declare @somestring varchar(100)
set @somestring = 'aaa bbb cccc eee fff f gggg h i aa '
--sample guts of function / proc
while charindex(' ',@somestring)>0 begin
set @Somestring = replace(@somestring,' ',' ')
end
print @somestring
---output aaa bbb cccc eee fff f gggg h i aa
