Maintain space between field entries.

I have a field where user will enter several file extension (without the "."). I'm drawing a blank as to how to make sure each one is separated by only one space.
I'm thinking basically on closeField I want to replace any consecutive spaces greater than 1 with a single space.

Somthing like this I suppose, but suspect it needs a repeat of some sort.
on closeField
put me into aString
replace (space & space) with " " in aString
put aString into me
end closeField

found this worked great.
put replaceText(fld "extent"," +"," ") into fld "extent"
