hi,

LOOP.

IF i < STRLEN( <string> ).

chr = <string>+i(1).

i = i+1.

ELSE.

exit.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

Hi,

You can read it like this.

Data : len type i,

a type c,

b type i.

i = strlen( string ).

Do i times.

b = sy-index - 1.

a = string+b(1).

write a.

enddo.

Well depending on you character set you really have to take into account the fact that you might be dealing with a multibyte character set.

The best bet would be to transform your string into a char[] character array and walk through it. This should hopefully negate the differences between multibyte and single byte character sets.

Enjoy

Hi, maybe this problem has already been solved.

But I have a interesting solution for it.

Paste in following:

DATA: STR(100) TYPE C,

ITAB TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF CHAR1.

STR = 'HELLO WORLD'.

CALL FUNCTION 'RKD_WORD_WRAP'

EXPORTING TEXTLINE = STR

OUTPUTLEN = 1

TABLES OUT_LINES = ITAB.

BREAK-POINT.
