Hi,

use STRLEN

Excample:

DATA: int TYPE i,

word1(20) TYPE c VALUE '12345'.

word2(20) TYPE c.

word3(20) TYPE c VALUE ' 4 '.

int = strlen( word1 ). WRITE int.

int = strlen( word2 ). WRITE / int.

int = strlen( word3 ). WRITE / int.

Hello,

You can use the command STRLEN.



w_len = strlen( <variable> ).

Hope this helps you.

Hi,

use strlen command to find the length of the string.

ex:

data length type i.

length = strlen (gv_get_header).
