write tit.

write : / (20) tit.

Hi,

Simplest would be:

Clear tit.

tit+20 = 'Welcome to'.

Hello,

I donot know about the spaces on the RH of the string.

DATA: tit TYPE char120.

tit+20 = 'Welcome to SAP'.

WRITE: tit.

Hi,

This issue exist when we try to give some space along with concatenate statement.

But i tried with some logic as following,

As You need to print Welcome TO

So you take a work feild wf1 and assingn text "welcome" to it

And then SHIFT wf1 RIGHT BY 20 PLACES.

And take wf2 and assign text "To " to it.

And then SHIFT wa_temp LEFT BY 20 PLACES.

and then Concatenate wf1 and wf2

Hope this will work.

Nitin.

Hi Jose,

Try this:

Tit = '  Welcome to  '.

write :/ Tit.

Copy in your editor and execute.

Hi All,

We can't concatenate SPACES with Concatinate statement. It will automatically removes the extra space.

So here we need to shift space on the left and right side and then concatenate the work fields way i have given above.

data: car type char50.
car+20(20) = 'Welcome'.
car+40(10) = '             '.
write car.

This is tried and it gives you spaces just adjust according to your need...

Use the logic like this:

data: v_str type string.

CONCATENATE  '#####' 'welcome to' '#####' INTO v_str.
TRANSLATE v_str USING '# '.

write:/ v_str.

In the above '#' replaces with space.

Actually we can concatenate spaces using the following;

 CONCATENATE ld_one ld_two ld_three INTO ld_four RESPECTING BLANKS.

Hi Simon,

Actually, you try with this statement , we can not insert more then 1 space using this statement.

But in SAP 4.6 only and lower . Respecting blanks is only valid with versions next from 4.6.

OK. Well assuming he is using v4.6 or higher, this would be the perfect solution in my opinion.
