Hi,

Use this....


DATA : lv_field type char20 value 'asdfghj00001',
       moff type i,
       lv_strlen type i,
       lv_length type i.


find first occurrence of regex '\d' in lv_field match offset moff.

lv_strlen = strlen( lv_field ).

lv_length = lv_strlen - moff.

write : / lv_field+moff(lv_length).

Hope it will helps

HI,

See if one variable has value like abc456.

simply declare one variable with type N.

example ..


data:  
  w_var1(20) type c value 'ABC1101',
  w_var2(20) type N.

w_var2 = w_var1.

write : / w_var2. 
Then simply it writes ....  1101.

hope u got it..

this is the concept of type conversion...................

Hi,

Use Replace as follows;

DATA lv_text TYPE string VALUE 'ab000cdeSDFf34534gh1ASDF234ijk5abc0'.
WRITE : /,'Before Replace :',lv_text.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '[A-Za-z]' IN lv_text WITH ''.
WRITE : /,'After Replace :',lv_text.

Output:

Before Replace : ab000cdeSDFf34534gh1ASDF234ijk5abc0

After Replace : 00034534123450

Remember that there is no space between the single quotes in the WITH clause of the REPLACE statement.

Hi,

You can also use;

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '[[:alpha:]]' IN lv_text WITH ''.
