Function Module SAP_CONVERT_TO_TEX_FORMAT

former_member647955 — Thu, 11 Nov 2010 07:11:10 GMT

Dear ABAPers,

I find function SAP_CONVERT_TO_TEX_FORMAT module really useful to concatenate fields in internal table into one text delimited with character. But somehow I found that this function module delete space in the data. For example if I have text 'Convert to text', automatically the result is 'Convert to text' (only single space between 2 character). Does anybody know the solution for this issue?

This function module has importing parameters:

I_FIELD_SEPERATOR

I_LINE_HEADER

I_FILENAME

I_APPL_KEEP

I only use importing parameter I_FIELD_SEPERATOR to set delimited character. I don't know the function of other parameters and I can't find any documentation for it. Probably one of this parameter can prevent space deletion. Are there anybody can confirm about it? Or should I find another function module?

Kindly need any help on this issue.

Thanks

Regards

Hadi

Hi Hadi,

<li>I have gone through the function module mentioned. They are condensing extra spaces. You can check with below code.

CONDENSE <F_SOURCE>.

<li>If you dont want the way function module works, You can copy to ZSAP_CONVERT_TO_TEX_FORMAT, Remove CONDENSE statement in the code.
