suppose the text field is w_char .

<b>data :

w_len type i,

w_places type i.

w_len = strlen( w_char ).

search w_char for ',' . <i>**( search returns the position of the searched character in the string )</i>

if sy-subrc eq 0.

w_places = w_len - sy-fdpos - 1.

endif.</b>

now w_places contains the no of characters after ','.

reward if it helps u..
