Hello Gurus!!

I want to replace the unwanted characters in the string by space and i want the total count of the string excluding the spaces.

For example if a string contains 18 characters and i have passed only 10 characters and now i want the total length as 10 only.

Please mail to me at emadduri@gmail.com

Thanks & Regards,

MLN.

Hi,

if your string contains # as invalid character.(repeate same process for all invalid characters) use REPLACE to remove this character. after replacing with space use CONDENSE to remove spaces.now use STRLEN to get length of the string.

ex:

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '#' IN string1 WITH space.

condense string1 with no-gaps.

x_length = strlen(string1).

first

replace the unwanted characters in the string

for this,

USE REPLACE command

and to shrink the string with leading/trailing spaces

use

CONDENSE V_STRING NO-GAPS.

THEN use STRLEN to calculate the length

v_integer = strlen( v_string ).

Hi narayana,

data: str1,str2 type string.

data: len1 type i.

replace all occurences of 'A' in str1 with space.

str2 = str1.

condense str2 no-gaps.

len1 = strlen (str2).

hope this helps u.
