Hi..

As you say u r a begineer first lesson is

SEARCH IN SCN BEFORE POSTING..

what u can do is

consider the string is in the variable p_string

find the string lenght using STRLEN. get the value to a var for eg lv_var

do lv_var times.

now u can make use of the system variable SY-ABCDE

enddo.

i am not giving the full logic.. find it o;ut ursel,f

Hi,

Try this



DATA: var TYPE char25 VALUE 'ght5678',
      moff TYPE i,
      mlen TYPE i,
      alp TYPE char10,
      num type char10,
      len TYPE i,
      off TYPE i.
FIND REGEX '([[:alpha:]]*)' IN var
     IGNORING CASE
     MATCH OFFSET MOFF MATCH LENGTH MLEN.
*WRITE: moff.
*WRITE: mlen.
len = strlen( var ).
*WRITE: len.
alp = var+0(mlen).
num = var+mlen(len).
WRITE:/ alp, num.

Hi,

write like this...Just offset the value..

data:

data(10) type c value 'ght5678',

data1(4) TYPE c,

data2(4) TYPE c.

data1 = data+0(3).

data2 = data+3(4).

write:/ data1,

/ data2.

THE CHARS MAY NOT NECESSARILY COME FIRST ALWAYS.. THE NUMS ALSO MAY CUM

Well, since he started shouting and can't precisely describe what he wants to do, I'd personally rather back off from helping any further.

data : s1 type string value 'char1234'.
DATA: result_tab TYPE match_result_tab,
      res type match_result.
DATA: s2 type string,s3 type string,s4 type string.
DATA: ii type i,c1 type c.
ii = strlen( s1 ).
s4 = s1.
WHILE ii NE 0.
  c1 = s1+0(1).
  TRANSLATE c1 TO UPPER CASE.
if c1 ca sy-abcde.
  CONCATENATE s2 s1+0(1) into s2.
else.
  CONCATENATE s3 s1+0(1) into s3.
endif.
SHIFT s1 left.
ii = ii - 1.
ENDWHILE.

WRITE /: s4,s2,s3.

Output:

char1234
char
1234

hope this is your output

Don't use spelling that you'd use in an SMS message or in Instant Message. Spell words out in FULL. And if you type your message IN ALL CAPITALS, even if it is an accident, then you are shouting.
