DATA:

total TYPE string VALUE '99.8765888%'.

REPLACE total+5(5) WITH ' ' into total.

CONDENSE total NO-GAPS.

write: total.

you will get the output as 99.87%

If ur string has length as ur example or of same pattern of it will work.

Hi subhasis,

if you want to restrict and round off the number as well you can use the Function module "ROUND".
