Hi,

Try this,

DATA : wf_len type c.

wf_len = strlen(wf_string).

Wf_len = wf_len - 3.

write : wf_string+wf_len(3).

Regards,

Sachin M M

hi Atiul,

use this


data v_len type p.

v_len = strlen( v_string ).

subtract 3 from v_len.

write: v_string+v_len(3).

regards,

Peter

DATA a TYPE string VALUE 'satharra'.

data b TYPE i .

b = STRLEN( a ).

b = b - 3.

WRITE a+b(3).

try it this way:

Data:
  w_string type string,
  w_strlen type i.

w_string = 'abcdecbsjdbjkl'.

w_strlen = strlen( w_string ).

w_strlen = w_strlen - 3.

w_string = w_string+w_strlen(3).

Write:
  w_string.

Regards and luck,

Pritam.

Hi,

RIGHT(@SHORT_TEXT,3)

Displays the last three characters of the string. For example, a value of FINALCOST would be displayed as OST.

Hope that helps.

Hi,

data: name type char length 10.

data: len type i.

name = 'sap.sdn'.

len = strlen(name).

len = len - 3.

name1 = name0(len).

write: name1.

SUBSTRING function could be the best way.

DATA(lv_string) = 'ABCD1234.xls'. "dummy string DATA(lv_ftype) = substring( val = lv_string off = ( strlen( lv_string ) - 3 ) len = 3 ). "to get "xls" (last 3 characters)

write: / xco_cp=>string( `ABCD1234.xls` )->to( -3 )->value.
