Hi folks,

How to include a comma in an amount? Also i want to delete the leading space between currency sign($) and the amount?

what i mean is, my present o/p in the SAPscript form is:

$ 16500.00

but i want as

$16,500.00

regards,

If you want to move the $ sign next to the amount, I believe that you need to do this in the print program and pass the entire value as a character field.

[code]

data: some_amount type p decimals 2 value '156000.12'.

data: char_amount(15) type c.

write some_amount to char_amount.

CONCATENATE '$' char_amount into char_amount.

CONDENSE char_amount no-gaps.

shift char_amount right DELETING TRAILING space.

[/code]

I am trying. Meanwhile, i have created an element in the paragraph formats as LI with tab alignments as centre,left,right,right for four tabs. But, system is throwing message- Unable to call PC editor(unkown paragraph format <LI>).What could be the reason in your view?

Have you misspelled the paragraph format, is it LI or L1(L, one)?

No. It is LI only. Only window's word kind of editor is not opening, the other editor is fine where the message is thrown.
