'#' means may be horizontal tab or New Line.

REPALCE ALL OCCURENCES OF CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB WITH CR_LF 
IN s_test .

REPALCE ALL OCCURENCES OF CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEW_LINE WITH CR_LF 
IN s_test .

Vijay Babu Dudla thank you.

But I get the message-> WITH CR_LF is not expected

at the simple coding below.

REPORT ZTEST19.

data hg type string.
hg = 'afafdfd#retretertre#vmnmnmnmmnbnm#'.


*REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB 
*WITH CR_LF IN s_test .
 
REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEW_LINE WITH CR_LF 
IN s_test .

Try using CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF.

data s_test type string.

s_test = 'afafdfd#retretertre#vmnmnmnmmnbnm#'.

REPALCE ALL OCCURENCES OF '#' WITH CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF

IN s_test .

you have to turn the WITH and IN operators around, then it should work.

Hi freineds

thank you all. The syntax problem is solved

but result is NOT OK.

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '#' IN s_test WITH CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF.

write: s_test.

result:

Hi,

have you declared the class thus?


*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
* Classes                                                              *
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*

* direct definition of CR, LF etc. Alternatively use HLP_CR, HLP_LF etc.
* to fill the separators in payment files!
class cl_abap_char_utilities definition load.

Best regards.

former_member182371 — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 13:03:48 GMT

Hi,

in your development after the TABLES declaration do:

e.g.

This is the tables declaration

TABLES: spfli.

This is the class declaration

class cl_abap_char_utilities definition load.

Best regards.

Re: express CR_LF

Former Member — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 14:44:03 GMT

pablo casamayor this is not what I am asking for.

Is it necessary to implement the class although

CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES is a SAP class.

If so can you please describe or show how must it

impelmented and overwrited ?

Regards

sas

Re: express CR_LF

Former Member — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 14:57:29 GMT

Not Necessarily. you can do it this way as well.

REPORT  ztest.
TYPE-POOLs: abap.
CONSTANTS: horizontal_tab TYPE  abap_char1  VALUE %_HORIZONTAL_TAB,
           cr_lf          TYPE  abap_cr_lf  VALUE  %_CR_LF.

DATA s_test TYPE string.
s_test = 'afafdfd#retretertre#vmnmnmnmmnbnm#'.

REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF horizontal_tab IN s_test WITH cr_lf.

Hope this Helps.

Hi,

go to transaction SE24 and see if class CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES exists.

If it does exist then it´s only necessary to declare the class.

By the way, what´s your SAP System version?

Best regards.

Re: express CR_LF

Former Member — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 15:20:54 GMT

I am using release SAP ECC 6.0.

Yes this class is existing but I dont understand what you mean

exactly.

Pablo to sum up:

I need a way on how to replace # with new line

or line feed.

I have the following command but it returns not the

correctly result.


data s_test type string.
s_test = 'afafdfd#retretertre#vmnmnmnmmnbnm#'.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '#' IN s_test WITH CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF.
write: s_test.

result:

afafdfd##retretertre##vmnmnmnmmnbnm##

Hi,

have a look at this:

http://www.sap-img.com/abap/string-handling-in-abap-removing-unwanted-char.htm

This is another option:

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/c924b874-0a01-0010-9192-b31f007a14ce

e.g.


l_input = '12345678'. l_regex = '([0-9])(?=([0-9]{3})+(?![0-9]))'. l_new = '$1.'. 
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX l_regex IN l_input WITH l_new.
This will insert a thousandu2019s separator

Best regards.

Hi,

try something like:


report ztest.

data s_test(255) type c.
data : ln type i.
data : pos type i.

s_test = 'afafdfd#retretertre#vmnmnmnmmnbnm#'.

ln = strlen( s_text ).

do ln times.
pos = sy-index - 1 .

if s_text+pos(1) = '#'.
 s_text+pos(1) = CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF.
endif.


enddo.


write :/ s_test.

Best regards.

pablo casamayor thanks but at your above given example

I get the same result as privous.

output is
afafdfd#retretertre#vmnmnmnmmnbnm#

nothing is replaced

Re: express CR_LF

former_member194669 — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 17:12:36 GMT

I think CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF have a value # then in that case why you are replacing the # with #

For testing this try to change all "a" in the string with cr_lf.


data s_test type string.
s_test = 'afafdfd#retretertre#vmnmnmnmmnbnm#'.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF 'a' IN s_test WITH CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF.
write: s_test.

a®s

thanks a lot of this clarification. Is it really true

that # is line feed.

If so how can I remove # and anyhow linefeeds.

The Requirement is to remove cross hatch without

deleting the linefeeds. Because if you have e.g. such

a text:

Radovan Karadzic trying to submit a letter##to the war crimes tribunal alleging u201Cirregularitiesu201D in his##treatment. The text reads u201CWould the registrar##please take this?u201D

It is not looking nice. Is there no way solve this problem
