Fill variable with blank spaces

Former Member — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 20:53:56 GMT

Hi,

Im trying to fill a variable type c with blank spaces before the content, but it just wont work.

For example:

var(10) type c.

concatenate ' ' '12345' into var.

And when i run the program in debug mode, after the concatenate it still shows the value '12345' and the blank spaces are gone.

Could anybody tell me how to make this work, please?

Regards,

Roberto.

Try with this:

REPORT ZTEST_NP.

data: var(10) type c.

var = '12345'.

shift var right deleting trailing space.

write: var.

Hi,

Please try this.


DATA: VAR(10) TYPE C.
                                                                        
WRITE '12345' TO VAR RIGHT-JUSTIFIED.
