If the text file just has one line you do this with Dialog Manager. Create a stored procedure:
FILEDEF INFILE DISK filename (LRECL 256
-RUN
-SET &INFIELD=0;                
-READ INFILE &INFIELD.A256B. 
-SET &INFIELD=RTRIM(&INFIELD);
-TYPE &INFIELD.LENGTH

Sorry, RTRIM is a new "simplified" function in 7.7.06. You could use the legacy function TRIMV
   
-SET &INFIELD=TRIMV('T', &INFIELD, 256, ' ', 2, 'A256V');
