This variant uses the conversion table g1 to determine the SAP character, which is then used to determine the new character from g2. </P><P></P><P></P><P></P><P>Transaction SPAD allows you to display and maintain character sets. If one of the conversion tables does not exist, the runtime error CONVERSION_CODEPAGE_UNKNOWN occurs. Conversion combinations that are maintained as part of the runtime system for performance reasons do not trigger runtime errors, and you cannot change them using Transaction SPAD. </P><P></P><P></P><P></P><P>Example</P><P>DATA c(72) TYPE C. </P><P>TRANSLATE c FROM CODE PAGE '1110' TO CODE PAGE '0100'. </P><P></P><P></P><P></P><P>This statement converts the contents of field c from the HP-UX character set to IBM EBCDIC. </P><P></P><P></P><P>Note </P><P>Fields with types I, P, F, and X remain unchanged by the conversion. The syntax check only allows character fields for specifying the codepage. However, since the codepage is maintained in table TCP00 as a type N field with length 4, you should use this type. </P><P></P><P></P><P>Reward if helpful,</P><P>Regards,</P><P>Esha Raj</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 17 Apr 2008 05:23:36 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/trnaslate-string-from-code-page/m-p/3689913#M888516 Former Member 2008-04-17T05:23:36Z Re: trnaslate string from Code Page https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/trnaslate-string-from-code-page/m-p/3689914#M888517 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi,</P><P></P><P>Just had a quich look, translate is not allowed in unicode programs.
