Replacing special characters

a = '27#'.

search a for '#'.

write : sy-fdpos.

From this code how would I drop the # sign so that the result is a = '27'. Would I use REPLACE and SPACE?

REPLACE ALL OCCURENCES OF '#' IN field WITH SPACE.

Just:


DATA: a(3) VALUE '27#'.
REPLACE '#' WITH '' INTO a.

(No space between the single quotes)

But after further checking, I don't think this is what you want.
