Work with INTEGER and STRINGS

Former Member — Fri, 11 Aug 2006 15:52:39 GMT

Dear all,

i have the following problem. How to convert int to string and back in ABAP?

the second question, if I get a string "S1A0001" how can I check the first and the third byte, if they are equal to 'S' and 'A' then convert '0001' to integer.

And if I have int-"1080025" check, whether the first byte is equal to "1" and the third one is "8" and if so, to convert the rest "0025" to string.

Thanks in advance.

data: v_value(7),

v_int type i, " integer value

v_str type string. " string value

v_value = 'S1A0001'.

if v_value+0(1) = 'S' and

v_value+2(1) = 'A'.

v_int = v_value+3(4).

endif.

v_value = '1080025'.

if v_value+0(1) = '1' and

v_value+2(1) = '8'.

v_str = v_value+3(4).

endif.

data: v_str1 type string,

v_int type i.

if v_str0(1) = 'S' and v_str2(1) = 'A'.

v_int = v_str+3(4).

endif.

if v_str0(1) = '1' and v_str2(1) = '8'.

v_str1 = v_str+3(4).

endif.

l_var = variable containing the value either S1A0001 or 1080025.

Please note the defn

data : l_int type i,

l_str type string.

if l_var(1) CA sy-abcde and l_var+2(1) CA sy-abcde.

l_int = l_var+3(4).

elseif l_var(1) CA '0123456789' and l_var_2(1) CA '0123456789'.

l_str = l_var+3(4).

endif.

In the above, I have given generalized checks as to 1st and 3rd char being alphabet or numeric and depending on the same do the needful, surely u can replace it with single characters if it is very specific to your requirement.

And if I have

p_code TYPE text8.

"S1A00005"

and want to get "S2A00006", how can I add to text 2 and 6?

The same with int, to convert "10001" to text "A10002".

l_int = 10001

l_int = l_int + 1

concatenate 'A' l_int into l_str.

is that ur requirement ?

data: v_num(1) type n,

v_num2(5) type n.

v_num = p_code+1(1) + 1.

v_num2 = p_code+3(5) + 1.

concatenate p_code+0(1) v_num v_num2 into p_code.
