Hi srinivas,

Use string comparison operators like CA or CS.

Look at REPLACE statement documentation, try something lik


REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF 'TEXT' IN warea WITH ``. " or FIRST
CONDENSE warea. " remove leading/double spaces

Hi Srinivas,

To dynamically remove 'TEXT' from string, you can try below code:

data:lv_string type string value 'TEXT PRINTED IN BOLD'.

data:i_data type table of string,

wa_data type string,

lv_count type i.

split lv_string at space into table i_data.

describe table i_data lines lv_count.

clear lv_string.

do.

read table i_data into wa_data index lv_count.

if wa_data ne 'TEXT'.

concatenate wa_data lv_string into lv_string separated by space.

endif.

clear wa_data.

lv_count = lv_count - 1.

if lv_count le 0.

exit.

endif.

enddo.

Also as mentioned by Raymond we can use 'Replace all occurances' and its better approach too..
