Comparison operator for character-type operands issue

[Former Member]

Hi Colleagues,

I am lost ....

I have the following values in my variables

INPUT_PATTERN1 = ZSD_O1100

WA_LOOKUP_FINDER-LINE = FROM /BIC/AZSD_O1100

But the If condition below is not executed ?

IF ( wa_lookup_finder-line CP input_pattern1 ).

ENDIF.

Could you inform me what to correct ?

Thanks

Try using IF wa_lookup_finder-line CP *ZSD_O1100 *.

Line is not executed? Or is executed and returns non-zero code? If so, change to 'CS' contains string, since you're not really supplying a pattern.

Hi Peter,

You can use the following wild card character '*'. It is recognizing the pattern. You can have a look at the documentation for a detailed explanation.

Sample Code

DATA: str1 TYPE string,
      str2 TYPE string.


str1 = 'FROM /BIC/AZSD_O1100'.
str2 = '*ZSD_O1100*'.

IF str1 CP str2.
BREAK-POINT.
ENDIF.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Samantak.

Can you check this

concatenate '*' 'ZSD_O1100' '*' into INPUT_PATTERN1.
WA_LOOKUP_FINDER-LINE = 'FROM /BIC/AZSD_O1100'.
IF ( wa_lookup_finder-line CP input_pattern1 ).
endif.
