how replace works?

Former Member — Fri, 04 Aug 2006 15:42:16 GMT

hi experts

my code is as follows

if I_KNA1-NAME1 CA ','.

replace ',' with ' ' into I_OUTPUT-NAME1.

else.

I_OUTPUT-NAME1 = I_KNA1-NAME1.

endif.

here i_output is internal table.

I_OUTPUT-NAME1 is not filled up. could you please tell me here the replace declaration is correct?

regards

Hi,

replace ',' with ' ' in I_kna1-NAME1.

I_OUTPUT-NAME1 = I_kna1-NAME1.

You can also use translate.

i_output-name1 = i_kna1-name1.
translate i_output-name1 using ', '.

HI,

<b>REPLACE <str1> WITH <str2> INTO <c> [LENGTH <l>].</b>

DATA: STR1(1) VALUE ','.

if I_KNA1-NAME1 CA STR1.

replace STR1 with SPACE into I_OUTPUT-NAME1.

else.

I_OUTPUT-NAME1 = I_KNA1-NAME1.

endif.

YOu can use the Translate command insted of this REPALCE command, just write like TRANSLATE I_OUTPUT-NAME1 USING ','.

Hope this helps

Thanks
