Validating only digits

Former Member — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 22:21:47 GMT

Hi All

I want to validate a field with digits only ( 0 to 9) . If it contains other than 0 to 9 digits like special characters then it should fail.

for e.g. : 384746 should be true

384-746 should be false.

If I use CA operand then it throws true even for 384-746 value

Can anybody let us know how to achieve it ? is there any FM available .

I got it with some extra logic to find it out whether it is a numeric or not BUT I need a direct method , one step validation

Responses are highly appreciated .

Try:


IF f1 CO '0123456789'.
* Good
ELSE.
* No good.
ENDIF.

Try like this:

[code]REPORT ZTEST_NP.

parameters: l_text(10) type c.

data: l_num(12) type c value '-+=@#$%^&*()'.

if l_text ca l_num.

write: 'false'.

else.

write: 'true'.

endif.[/code]

Thanks for ur response

If f1 = 65883 then it is fine

if f1 = 659-675 then it should fail

The above condition should execute .there are some cases where special characters are possible.

Hi,

The code provided by Rob will work in the cases you provided. What is the issue then.

Would you mind letting us know what the "special cases" are?
