I agree that you don't need AppleScript to get rid of formatting in FileMaker.

I've discovered that Set field["this field"] = this field doesn't always work.

I usually set the field to Trim(this field) & " ". This works well assuming that you don't have blanks at the beginning or end you want to preserve.

Left(this field&" ",Length(this field)-1)

would be more general.
