Hello All,

I got a problem with unicode check...

Following is the snippet of the code..

DATA: OEFLT(1) TYPE X VALUE 'CE',ASBEN(30) TYPE C.

REPLACE OEFLT WITH 'ö' INTO ASBEN.----> Unicode error...

How do I do this..

Thx in advance,,

Sri.

Hi Sri,

The error is very clearly described during syntax check -

"OEFLT" must be a character-type data object (data type C, N, D, T, or STRING)

The variable you have declared is of type X, and hence the error.

I am not sure of what you are trying to do with the REPLACE statement, though.

Hi Sridhar,

The resolution of your problem would be declaring a constant of type abap utilities class static variable which corresponds to the hexadecimal value 'CE' and use it in the place of PFELT.

Thanks,

does this serve your purpose....

DATA: oeflt(1) TYPE x VALUE 'CE',asben(30) TYPE x.

data test(1) type x value 'ö'.

REPLACE oeflt WITH test INTO asben IN BYTE MODE.

rgds,

Hi,

Currently I m on an upgrade project. So the programs which I m going thru are not mine, and basically I don't know what the program is meant for....

Anywaz thx for all the help...

Hi Sridhar,

Use the function module NLS_STRING_CONVERT_TO_SYS for all conversions of Hexadecimal values.

This code will give you an idea of how do we go about , when we get these type of errors.

REPORT ZV1_TEST19 .

DATA: CR TYPE X VALUE '0D',

LF TYPE X VALUE '0A',

tab type x value '09'.

data:v_info(12) type c value '121#232 33'.

data: v_sep type x value '7C',

v_xstr type xstring,

v_ch type string,

v_ch1 type c.

class cl_abap_char_utilities definition load.

constants:v_crlf(2) type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.

data:v_cr type c,

v_lf type c.

v_cr = v_crlf+0(1).

v_lf = v_crlf+1(1).

write:/ v_cr,v_lf.

v_xstr = v_sep.

call function 'NLS_STRING_CONVERT_TO_SYS'

exporting

lang_used = sy-langu

source = v_xstr

IMPORTING

RESULT = v_ch

SUBSTED =

EXCEPTIONS

ILLEGAL_SYST_CODEPAGE = 1

NO_FE_CODEPAGE_FOUND = 2

COULD_NOT_CONVERT = 3

OTHERS = 4.

v_ch1 = v_ch.

write:/ cr,

lf,

tab.

Thanks,

Ravi

If you are on 4.7 or higher, try transaction UCCHECK. The unicode explanations are more detailed then the editor does.

Hello, I used the NLS_STRING_CONVERT_TO_SYS function module, but it always returns the same hex value '23002300' -> ##.

The input value is 0900 and 0A00. you know why ? thanks for your help.

The value I expect is # -> 0900 and # -> 0A00
