Remove space

Former Member — Fri, 26 Oct 2007 13:50:37 GMT

Hi,

I am using following variables

DATA: a TYPE I.

DATA: b TYPE p DECIMALS 3.

DATA: c TYPE p DECIMALS 3.

And getting the output in the following way in the zebra printer. MM,CM,KG are fixed in zebra template.

400(result of ‘a’ field) MM

100.000(result of ‘b’ field) CM

1.234(result of ‘c’ field) KG

But I need to delete the space between result and mm and I want to display in the following way

400mm

100.000cm

1.234kg

I Am not able to use shift command because all the variables are not character fields. Please tell me the best logic for this. I will give points.

Thanks a lot in advance.

HI,

use condense keyword.

CONDENSE <field> NO-GAPS.

<b>example:</b>

DATA:abc(20) value 'wel come'.

CONDENSE abc NO-GAPS.

write:/ abc.

Hi,

You can try to use SPLIT command to split the string at SPACE ' '.

SPLIT str at ' ' INTO str1 str2.

CONCATENATE STR1 STR2 INTO STR3.

STR1 = STR3.

And then concatenate the strings.

Regards,

Sesh

Move the field content to a char type temp varaible .. remove the space using SHIFT or CONDENSE.. move it back to the original field..
