how to insert pipe symbol between fields ?

I have a workarea with many fields.

I need to concatenate '|' (pipe symbole) as a seperator and put those all the fields into work area (which is of 300 chars) ?

How to do this ?

Clear lstr.

DO.

ASSIGN COMPONENT SY-INDEX OF STRUCTURE F TO <F>.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0. EXIT.

ELSE.

if sy-index = 1.

lstr = <F>.

else.

concatenate lstr <F> into lstr separated by '|'.

endif.

ENDIF.

ENDDO.

Here F is your internal table and <F> is the field-symbol...while the final string is lstr
