SAPSCRIPT Condense option

Former Member — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 05:02:51 GMT

Hi ,

I am displaying a value in script as below,

[&VAR1(C2)&] and say VAR1 contains 1, output is appearing as [1 ].

If VAR1 contains 21 , then [21].

My requirement is in first case i.e. when it is 1, trailing space should not appear, i.e. instead of [1 ]----> [1] should be displayed.

is there any other formatting option to achieve this.

Pls note if i use only &VAR1(C)&, then value are not displayed properly when VAR1 has 2 digits.

i.e. when VAR1 is 21 it is displayed as [1].

Regards,

Raghavendra
