Hello


data: str1 type string,
str2 type string,
i type i.

str1 = '1234567890987654321'.

i = strlen( str1 ).
i = i - 3.
str2 = str1+i(3).
write str2.

data v_len type p.

v_len = strlen( v_string ).

subtract 3 from v_len.

write: v_string+v_len(3).

data : var1 type string.


parameters : p_var1 type string.

move p_var1 to var1.
write : var1+5(3).

Hi use this code,

parameters:pp(60) type c .

data l type i.

data ll type i.

data cc(3) type c.

l = strlen( pp ).

ll = l - 3.

move pp+ll(3) to cc.

write : cc .

Hi,

See F1 help for SHIFT Statement, you can use it as;

SHIFT text RIGHT DELETING TRAILING pattern.
