String operation - urgent

Former Member — Wed, 01 Nov 2006 22:10:23 GMT

Hello all,

I have a string like

<b>It is followed on monthly basis. | Ag and Ba not analysed | because they do not appear in the normal process</b>.

Now I have to parse this string and look for the special symbol '|'. The symbol '|' means a new line. So in the above string case whenever I come across '|', I have to take the string left to it into a separate string. So in this case I should split the above string as


String1 = It is followed on monthly basis.
String2 =  Ag and Ba not analysed 
String3 =  because they do not appear in the normal process

Experts please help me in this case. Waiting..........

Hi,

Try this..

DATA: T_DATA TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF STRING WITH HEADER LINE.

DATA: V_STRING TYPE STRING.

V_STRING = 'ABC|DEF|'.

SPLIT V_STRING AT '|' INTO TABLE T_DATA.

LOOP AT T_DATA.

WRITE: / T_DATA.

ENDLOOP.

Thanks,

Naren

HI Naren,

THanks for the reply. I got only one final issue in this.

I may have consecutive '|' symbols. In which case, the output should come as follows


DATA: T_DATA TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF STRING WITH HEADER LINE.

DATA: V_STRING TYPE STRING.

V_STRING = 'ABC<b>||</b>DEF|'.

SPLIT V_STRING AT '|' INTO TABLE T_DATA.

LOOP AT T_DATA.
WRITE: / T_DATA.
ENDLOOP.

The output should be like;


ABC

DEF

Right now with your code I am getting like


ABC
DEF

Please help

Hi,

Check the internal table in the debugging mode..It is working fine..

IN the report I didn't give to display blank lines..That is the reason why it is not showing..

DATA: T_DATA TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF STRING WITH HEADER LINE.

DATA: V_STRING TYPE STRING.

V_STRING = 'ABC||DEF|'.

SET BLANK LINES ON.

SPLIT V_STRING AT '|' INTO TABLE T_DATA.

LOOP AT T_DATA.

WRITE: / T_DATA.

ENDLOOP.

Thanks,

Naren
