[Former Member]

hi experts

i have a string like str_a = 'abc##123'

i try to : split str_a at '##' into r1 r2.

i wish r1 = abc, r2 = 123,but it doesn't work.

another question is i want to translate a char into a decimal, is there any fm?

pls help and thanks a lot!

This is working for me..

DATA wa_char(10) TYPE c value 'abc##123'.
DATA : wa_chr(4),
       wa_chr1(4).

SPLIT wa_char AT '##' INTO wa_chr wa_chr1.

write : wa_chr, wa_chr1.

For char to decimal you could check as below:

IF wa_char CO '0123456789'.
  wa_decimal = wa_char.
ENDIF.

Hi Liu,

use this way.

data : abc type string value 'abc##123'.

data : r1(3) type c,

r2(3) type c.

split abc at '##' into r1 r2.

write : r1, r2.

bye...

Hi Ilu,

I dont find any problem with the SPLIT statement with your try. Anyways please check the below code which may helps you. If it is from file processing then use CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB instead of '#'.

Data: str_a type string value 'abc##123',
      r1 type string,
      r2 type string.

START-OF-SELECTION.
split str_a at '##' into r1 r2.

write:/ r1,r2.

Use function module MOVE_CHAR_TO_NUM to convert character to numeric.

Thanks,

Hi,

Do as Vinaykumar has mentioned for the split statment.

For converting character to decimal , you can also try the PACK command.

DATA num(10) TYPE c VALUE '11000'.

DATA num_p(13) TYPE p DECIMALS 2.

PACK num TO num_p.

write : num.
write / num_p.

regards,

Advait
