Hi Anji/ Navaneeth,

Hi Sujatha,

Use CA string operation to check for the characters in a string.

DATA V_STRING TYPE STRING.

IF V_STRING CA '"''.

WRITE:/ 'STRING CONTAINS SINGLE QUOTES'.

ENDIF.

Thanks,

Vinay

Hi Sujatha,

just put this code and check

data: v_str type string.

constants: c_quote type c value ''''.

concatenate 'Navneeth' c_quote 'SAP' into v_str.

if v_str ca c_quote.

write 'Successfull'.

endif.

hope it solves your problem

Use the Quotes sysmbol that you see below the escape key in the key board.

if v_staring ca `'`.

endif.
