Dear Friends,

I have a requirement where I have to remove all the ( from a string.

My string is like this 'amitsharmav((((sdf(()]]hfg]]]'. Is it possible than please specify the ABAP command or the function module name.

Thanks & Regards

Use REPLACE

[ FIRST OCCURRENCE OF | ALL OCCURRENCES OF ]

[ SUBSTRING ] old

IN [ SECTION OFFSET off LENGTH len OF ] text

WITH new.

Hello


data: str1(50),
      str2(50).

str1 = 'amitsharmav((((sdf(()]]hfg]]]'.
str2 = '( ) [ ] '.
TRANSLATE str1 USING str2.
