CONCATENATE STRING

[Former Member]

hi experts,

i have one problem when concatenate string.

{ for example:

condition 1: values of f1 = thane

f2 = mumbai

f3 = delhi

concatenate f1 ',' f2 ',' f3 ',' into f separated by space.

then f = thane , mumbai , delhi ,

this is ok.

condition 2: values of f1 = thane,

f2 = mumbai,

f3 = delhi,

concatenate f1 ',' f2 ',' f3 ',' into f separated by space.

then f = thane, , mumbai, , delhi, ,

but i want f = thane , mumbai , delhi ,

condition 3: values of f1 = thane

f2 =

f3 = delhi,

concatenate f1 ',' f2 ',' f3 ',' into f separated by space.

then f = thane , , delhi, ,

but i want f = thane , delhi ,

}

give me idea

Thanks.

well for condition 2 remove the commas before tha concatenate.

in condition 3 after your concantenate do following:

search f for '., ,.'.

if something is found the position of your pattern in string is beeing publishen in sy-fdpos.

the do:

data: lv_fdpos type syst-fdpos.

lv_fdpos = sy-fdpos + 3.

f = f(sy-fdpos) + f+lvfdpos.

FOR condition 2:

values of f1 = thane,

f2 = mumbai,

f3 = delhi,

concatenate f1 f2 f3 into f separated by ','.

then f = thane, mumbai, delhi,

Use CONDENSE Statement with f.

CONDENSE F.

Hi Ramayya,

 condition 1: values of f1 = thane
                               f2 = mumbai
                               f3 = delhi
 concatenate f1 ',' f2 ',' f3 ',' into f separated by space.
* then f = thane , mumbai , delhi ,
 *this is ok.
> 
 condition 2: values of f1 = thane,
                                f2 = mumbai,
                                f3 = delhi,
 concatenate f1 ',' f2 ',' f3 ',' into f separated by space.   " Use zseperated by ',' instead of Space
 then f = thane, , mumbai, , delhi, ,
 but i want f = thane , mumbai , delhi ,
 
 condition 3: values of f1 = thane
                                f2 = 
                               f3 = delhi,
 concatenate f1 ',' f2 ',' f3 ',' into f separated by space.
 then f = thane ,  , delhi, ,
 but i want f = thane ,  delhi ,

try this 
condense f.

use this syntax to acheive the thane , delhi..

replace ',,' with ',' into f.               "Use this syntax it will work

Hi.

I would do this within a loop, where you check if the string you would like to add to your list is in the correct format. like this: 'delphi'

- check if initial

- check if ',' in the string

In addition you are able to do this for as many strings as you want to.

DATA :F1(9),F2(9),F3(9),F(30).

f1 = 'thane'.

f2 = ''.

f3 = 'delhi'.

IF F1 <> '' AND F2 <> '' AND F3 <> ''.

concatenate f1 f2 f3 into f separated by ','.

ELSEIF F1 <> '' AND F2 = '' AND F3 <> ''.

concatenate f1 F3 into f separated by ','.

ENDIF.

WRITE f .

TRY THIS ..IT WILL SOLVE UR PROBLEM.

Hi,

Check the following code, it is working fine.

ata: thane(5) type c value 'thane',

mumbai(6) type c value 'mumbai',

f(15) type c.

concatenate thane ',' mumbai into f SEPARATED BY space.

condense f.

write f.

Please let me know if there are any further issues on this

[Former Member]

hi,

it very simple

use this code i will get it ..

condition 2: values of f1 = thane,

f2 = mumbai.

f3 = delhi.

concatenate f1 ',' f2 ',' f3 ',' into f separated by space.

then f = thane, mumbai, delhi,

but i want f = thane , mumbai , delhi ,

[Former Member]

Hello Ramya,

This will solve thee second part of your question

IF f CA ',,' .
  REPLACE ',' IN f  WITH ''.
ENDIF.

Explanation :

CA - Contains Any

Please revert back if the answer is not the expected .

well that wont work, this will remove exactly ONE comma.

you´d need this addition "ALL OCCURRENCES" of statement replace.

But still it wont wor cause then you wont have any commas at all in your string afterwards.

[Former Member]

Hello Florian Kemmer ,

I would like to add a point to your reply.We can replace all occurences of "',," with "," this would solve the problem rite?.I have tried to do that .Please correct me if I am wrong .

Try this:

Split the concatenate statement.

DATA f1(20) TYPE c VALUE 'Thane'.
DATA f2(20) TYPE c VALUE 'Mumbai'.
DATA f3(20) TYPE c. VALUE 'Vashi'.

DATA result(100) TYPE c.

IF f1 IS NOT INITIAL.
  CONCATENATE f1 ' , ' INTO f1.
ENDIF.

IF f2 IS NOT INITIAL.
  CONCATENATE f2 ' , ' INTO f2.
ENDIF.

IF f3 IS NOT INITIAL.
  CONCATENATE f3 ' , ' INTO f3.
ENDIF.

CONCATENATE f1 f2 f3 INTO result SEPARATED BY space.

WRITE result.

USE THESE STATEMENTS BEFORE YOU CONDITION STARTS.

SHIFT F1 RIGHT DELETING TRAILING ',' .
SHIFT F2 RIGHT DELETING TRAILING ',' .
SHIFT F3 RIGHT DELETING TRAILING ',' .

This will give you output as you get it in the first case, for every condition.
