SHIFT - fieldsymbol

Former Member — Wed, 25 Oct 2006 06:44:50 GMT

Hello,

In my program I have to use SHIFT inorder to shift the contents of the field symbol deleting the leading spaces.

Field symbol will be assigned of any type(c,n,d,P,).

Problem :-

When field symbol is assigned with a decimal value, The code short dumps.

Is there any other command which gives the same functionality. Or is there some thing i have to modify with SHIFT. Please let me know the solution.

Thanks

Hi,

Use the condense command.

Check http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/fc/eb33e6358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm for details.

hi,

use sth like this:

DESCRIBE FIELD <f> TYPE z.

  IF z = 'C'.
   shift <f> ....    
  ENDIF.

Hi,

Condense is used for strings.

That's funny, it does dump for me at all.



report zrich_0001 .

data: c(10) type c value '0000012345',
      p type p decimals 2 value '12345.67',
      n(4) type n value '0003'.


field-symbols: <fs>.


assign c to <fs>.
shift <fs> left deleting leading '0'.
write:/ <fs>.


assign p to <fs>.
shift <fs> left deleting leading '0'.
write:/ <fs>.


assign n to <fs>.
shift <fs> left deleting leading '0'.
write:/ <fs>.
