Contains only function (CO) - Finding single quote in string

Former Member — Tue, 22 Mar 2005 19:58:33 GMT

I want to use the CO function to dertermine valid characters, including a single quote.

i.e if x CO 'ABCD''.

What is the proper syntax?

Its a little funny, two (') represents one ('). See the example below

REPORT ZRICH_0004 .

parameters: p_check(10) type c.

* Contains a space, A, B, C D, or an "'".
if p_check co ' ABCD'''.
write:/ p_check.
endif.
