Hi Krishna,

insted u can declare that variable of type n. If you have 1 means it will display as 01.

or.

since that variable is of type c, by using strlength we can find out the length of the variable.

Hi Krishna

Use convert_exit_alpah_input FM to add zeros..

else

use lv_len = strln(variable).

lv_len will have the number 1 or 2 in ur case.. based on it you can add zeros.

Hi,

try the following code..

data : var type i,

var2(3) type n.

var = 2.

if var < 10.

var2 = var.

endif.

write /: var, var2.

var2 will ouput with leading zeros...

Hi,

Assign the value to a numeric field. It will automatically takes care of zeros.

Ex: x type char02,

y(2) type n.

x = '1'.

y = x.

Write: / y.
