Hi,

the parameter ascii is the hex-code as string:

It returns "41" which means 4 * 16^1 + 1 * 16^0 = 65

If you want an OO-approach für converting to other codepages, you can use class CL_ABAP_CONV_OUT_CE or CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE (there are some examples in the documentation).

Regards,

Ulrich

Hi Gulsah,

The hexadecimal for 'A' is 41.

65 is the hexa for 'e'.

Try debuging the code and you can check it out yourself.

DATA: char_code(2) TYPE c.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <test> TYPE x.

   ASSIGN 'A' TO <test> CASTING.
   WRITE <test> TO char_code.

   WRITE char_code.

Cheers!
