Try this.

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF ',' WITH ' ' IN string .

condense string.

Hi,

You cannot use Replace all occurences in 4.6c.You can use replace.

data str(5) value '34,45'.

REPLACE ',' WITH '' into str.

condense str no-gaps.

write str.

Replace all occurrences doesn't work in 4.6c

what you can do is a

while sy-subrc = 0.

replace ',' into regex with ''.

endwhile.

condense regex no-gaps.

Hi,

REPLACE syntax in 4.6c is

REPLACE f ...WITH g

...INTO h.

Replaces the first occurrence of the contents of field f in field h with the contents of field g.

If you want to replace all the commas with blank space ,

DO.

REPLACE ',' WITH ' ' INTO l_f_string.

if sy-subrc <> 0.

exit.

endif.

ENDDO.

Hi

Check this..also from 4.6C

REPLACE ',' WITH ' ' INTO H_FIELD.

Hope this Helps.

Hi Sophia,

In place of replace statement you can also use Translate statement.

Example:

DATA : v_text(4) value ', '.

Data : v_str type string.

string = 'This is, one, of the, demo, of, translate,statement'.

TRANSLATE v_str USING v_text.

Here v_text contain the pattern in which you want to covert the string . so in this example all the , are replace by space.

Reward points,if useful.
