Replacement for Underscore - Hexadecimal '1F' in Unicode System

Hi gurus,

Can anyone provide the replacement for hexadecimal value '1F' in a Unicode system? Is there any table available?

Regards,

Lijo Joseph

Hi Lijo,

For special characters for unicode you can use attributes of class CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES. However there is nothing for underscore, so I guess underscore can be used in any codepage.

Peter,

I have checked in the mentioned class. but didnt find anything. So you mean that we can use Undescore directly as a character itself?

Lijo,

<b>1F</b> is nothing but a unit seperator in Hexa decimal. I believe you are using this in excel file. If so you can use ','(comma) instead of that and make the outputfile extention as .csv.

So ',' will work as a unit seperator in .csv file which you can open as excel or txt.

Let me know if you have any questions.

rgds,

TM.

Check include LSCMS_APIF01 in form extract_data there is a constant defined:

 x1f        type x value '1F',

and it's used for statement:

*     check if character must be escaped
      if xstrlen( l_x ) > 1 or l_x(1) < x1f or l_x(1) > x7f or l_c ca unsafe.

Hai

Check the following Statements

data v_var1 type x value '1F'.

data v_len(5) type n.

constants:

c_ecc6_tab(1) type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.

constants:

c1(3) type c value 333.

data: begin of itab occurs 0,

line(20) type c,

end of itab.

data: begin of itab1 occurs 0,

line1(20) type c,

line2(20) type c,

line3(20) type c,

end of itab1.

concatenate c1 c_ecc6_tab c1 c_ecc6_tab c1 c_ecc6_tab c1

into itab-line.

concatenate c1 v_var1 c1

into itab-line.

open dataset c1 for input in text mode encoding default.

describe field c1 length v_len in character mode.

do 5 times.

append itab.

enddo.

data xtab1 like itab1.

data v_newvar like itab1-line1.

do 10 times.

itab1-line1 = 'abc'.

itab1-line2 = 'def'.

itab1-line3 = 'ghi'.

append itab1.

clear itab1.

enddo.

v_tabix = sy-tabix.

Thanks & regards
