Hi Veerachamy,

Jusy offset the value..

Example..

data:
w_char(30) type c,
wtmp(30) type c.

w_tmp = w_char+0(27).

write: w_tmp.

it will remove the last three characters from the filed.

Hi veerachamy,

Just copy this code..it will work fine even if the field changes dynamically..

I took w_char as 30 char..u can give ur field name there...

data:
w_char(30) type c value 'asdfghjklpoiu',
w_tmp(30) type c,
w_tmp1 type i.
w_tmp1 = strlen( w_char ).
w_tmp1 = w_tmp1 - 3.

w_tmp = w_char+0(w_tmp1).

write: w_tmp.

Hope it resolves the issue...

Regards

Kiran

Hi,

Then find string length of your variable like below.

DATA: dat(30) TYPE c,

dat1 type string,

len type i.

dat = '123456789012345678901234567890'.

len = strlen( dat ).

len = len - 3. " To remove last 3 characters

dat1 = dat(len).

you can used this logic for it




data:  V_CHAR(30) type c,
       SWT_LENTH TYPE I,
       wearks(12) value '10000'.


SWT_LENTH = STRLEN( wearks ).  "get the lenth of ur variable

SWT_LENTH = SWT_LENTH - 3.

V_CHAR = wearks+0(SWT_LENTH).

write: V_CHAR.

shift the variable by 3 + (30 - length) places.

data : s1 type char30.
DATA : i1 type i.
s1 = 'asdasd12345'.
i1 = strlen( s1 ).
i1 = : 30 - i1, i1 + 3.
SHIFT s1 by i1 PLACES RIGHT.

WRITE s1.

Using OFFSET Methodology,we can get that as follows:

w_char type char30,

wtmp type char27..

w_tmp = w_char+0(27).

w_tmp contains only 27 chars by not taking last 3.
