Split String FM

Former Member — Tue, 27 May 2008 21:58:51 GMT

Hello,

Does anyone know a standard string FM that split string at an absolut place and consider if the N place is blank or not ?

My meaning is likely:

str = 'test one two three'.

I would like to split str at the 10th place but because it's in a middle of word split it in the 8th place ..

str1 = 'test one'

str2 = 'two three'

and not

str1 = 'test one t'

str2 = 'wo three'

I know that VB has few methods like that, I'm hope abap has it also ..

Thanks in advance,

Hi Rebeka,

Please check the following code. This would help. FM 'TEXT_SPLIT' does it correctly.

DATA: text(50) TYPE c VALUE 'test one two three',

text1(20) TYPE c,

text2(20) TYPE c.

CALL FUNCTION 'TEXT_SPLIT'

EXPORTING

LENGTH = 10

TEXT = text

IMPORTING

LINE = text1

REST = text2

check sy-subrc = 0.

write : text1 ,

text2.

Reward points if useful.
