checking last digit

[Former Member]

one of my table field is character which is of 30 characters in length. But it generally has value 7 or 8 characters. I have to check whether the last character of the value is * or not....how can i do that..

Try this:

data: lv_length type i.

lv_length = strlen( itab-field ).

if itab-field+(lv_length) eq '*'.

*----

---

endif.

Thanks,

Once correction to the suggest code, I believe you would have to substract one form the length in order to get the right positioning, yes? And the lv_length shouldn't be in parenthesis.

data: lv_length type i.

lv_length = strlen( itab-field ).

lv_length = lv_length  - 1.

if itab-field+lv_length(1) eq '*'.

endif.

HI,

data : lv_data(20) type c.

lv_data = 'Hello'.

call function 'STRING_REVERSE'

exporting

STRING = lv_data.

lang = 'E'

importing

RSTRING = lv_data.

if lv_data+0(1) eq '*'.

Endif.

Thanks
