Former Member — Tue, 18 Apr 2006 05:21:05 GMT

Guys,

WRITE 😕 TEXT-120 NO-GAP,V_CNTLNS,'Hours'.

I want to remove the gap between the test-120 and v_cntlns.

I tried using NO_GAP keyword but it is showing gap.

please help on this.

regards,

vijay

Hi,

NO-GAP doest work in this situation.

I think you will have to concatenate both the variables

TEXT-120 and V_CNTLNS into another variable without spaces and then use it.

Thanks,

Rashmi.

Hi Vijay,

This will work

data : len type i.

len = strlen( text-120 ).

write 😕 text-120(len) no-gap,V_CNTLNS,'Hours'.

Hi Vijay,

There is no problem with your statement. I have written a similar statement using NO-GAP and it is working for me.

Can you tell me what V_CNTLS is?? Is it a selection-screen field?Or is it simply a variable?

In any case, it should work.

Regards,

SP.

Hello Vijay,

NO GAPS should work provided the TEXT-120 is completely filled. However if the length of TEXT120 is say 10 char and only 4 char are filled then No GAPS has no meaning. U will have to process this in a different way for this to work.

Hi vijay,

1. CONCATENATE

2. Instead of using no-gap,

use concatenate

3. Just copy paste this program.

It will WRITE as u want.

(instead of my variable a, u can replace

it with text-120.)

(also note that there are spaces in

a = '' (after Z )

like this.

a = ' 1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJ.............Z...................'

(dots are spaces)

report abc.

data : a(120) type c.

data : b(10) type c.

data : c(200) type c.

*----

a = ' 1234567890 ABCDEFGHIJ Z '.

b = 'AMIT'.

concatenate a b into c separated by space.

write : a , b.

write 😕 c.
