Replace command is not working

Former Member — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 09:57:58 GMT

Hi,

I am using below code, but it is not replacing correctly.

data DWORK_VAL(510) type C.

DWORK_VAL = 'DWORK_VAL ~~~_{efghijklmnopqrstuvxyz}~~~'.

loop at text_content assigning <fs>.

search <fs> for DWORK_VAL.

if sy-subrc = 0.

replace DWORK_VAL in <fs> with 'ABCDE...ashdalkjhsd----

888*****'.

modify text_content from <fs> index sy-tabix.

endif.

Thanks,

If you are using field symbol , there is no need to use MODIFY.

You code should work properly.

Yes, you are using field symbol and it will change your table content directly.

example:-

Data : var1(6) type c.

Data : var2(6) type c.

Data : var3(15) type c.

Data : len type i.

var1 = 'GO'.

var2 = 'GONE'.

var3 = 'ABCDGOEFGH'.

len = strlen( var1 ).

REPLACE var1 LENGTH len WITH var2 INTO var3.

condense var3 no-gaps.

write:var3.

no need modify

I think it should work.

Can you post you complete code. (Along with internal table definition and definition of <fs>).

Moreover, it will be helpful if you can give test scenario in which you think data should get replaced.

Hi:

Instead of Field symbol, please use an internal table.
