Removing specified caracters from string

Former Member — Thu, 23 May 2013 08:38:49 GMT

Hi all,

i have the following variable string :

DATA: ld_str type char100 value 'un TRES UN Dos Un Tres uN'.

Well, i need to remove all 'un' whatever the case sensitive. At the end i need to have the following string value : 'TRES Dos Tres'.

I supppose i need to use regular expression but i don't know to work with them.

Thanks for your help

Hi Eric,

Use the following code for removing the specified characters from the given string.

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX <your_pattern> IN <your_string> WITH space IGNORING CASE.

EX:

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX 'un' IN 'un TRES UN Dos Un Tres uN'

WITH space IGNORING CASE.

Output :

TRES Dos Tres
