Former Member — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 11:02:14 GMT

Hi all,

I have one phone number field. and the numbers are like 123-456-7891.

Now i need convert this so that it should not allow to contain spaces, hyphen, slash etc. while downloading it to a file.

It should contain only numbers.

How can we do this.

can anybody please help me?

Thanks,

sudheer

HI,

First replace '-' by space using REPLACE

then use CONDENSE to remove spaces.

Try this .

Use replace all occurrences ..

replace all occurrences of '-' in v_phone with ''.

condense v-phone.

Hi,

Please check this,

DATA:
w_num(15) type c value '123-456-7891' .
CONSTANT : c_hypen type value '-'.

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF c_hypen
IN w_num WITH space.

CONDENSE w_num .

Try this...

Data: str1(20) type c, str(2) type c, char1 type c.

Data: len type i, cnt type i value 0.

str1 = '123-456-7891'.

str2 = ''.

len = STRLEN( str1 ).

While ( i <= len )

char1 = str1+i(1).

IF char1 CO '123456789'.

CONCATENATE str2 char1 into STR2.

ENDIF.

i = i + 1.

EndWhile

WRITE:/ STR2.

Hope this would help you.

Hi sudheer,

if you are on ECC600 (ABAP640) or higher, you can use regular expressions


DATA: LV_PHONE TYPE STRING VALUE '123-456-7891' .
REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF REGEX [^0-9] IN LV_PHONE WITH ''.

should remove all non-numeric characters.

Regards,

Clemens
