Conversion to number from a charactor

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have the charactor as "00002A" OR "00001D".

Here I want to change 00002A to 21, means, A is 1, B is 2, C is 3 and so on..

Same 00001D sould become 14.

How to achieve this functionality?

Thanks,

hi,

Search for the alphabet and replace it with the value.

u can use 'SEARCH' command for this.

SEARCH

Searches for a string.

Syntax

SEARCH <f>|<itab> FOR <g> [ABBREVIATED]

[STARTING AT <n1>]

[ENDING AT <n2>]

[AND MARK].

Searches the field <f> or the table <itab> for the string in field <g>. The result is placed in the system field SY-FDPOS. The additions allow you to hide intermediate characters, search from and to a particular position, and convert the found string into uppercase.

REPLACE

Replaces strings in fields with another string.

Syntax

REPLACE <str1> WITH <str2> INTO <c> [LENGTH <l>].

This statement searches the first occurrence of the first <l> characters of the search pattern <str1> in field <c> and replaces them with the string <str2>.

Hope this helps u,

Hi,

Assumptions :

1. Length should be same for all

2. LAst 2 chars only get the values.

DATA : v_string(10) VALUE '00002A' ,

v_cnt TYPE I,

v_cnt1 TYPE I,

v_cnt3 TYPE I,

v_data(2) ,

v_data1(5).

v_cnt = Strlen( v_string ).

v_cnt1 = v_cnt - 2.

v_data = v_string+v_cnt1(2).

v_data1 = v_data+1(1).

CASE v_data1.

WHEN 'A'.

v_cnt3 = 1.

CONCATENATE v_data1+0(1) v_cnt3 INTO v_data1.

WHEN 'B'.

v_cnt3 = 2.

CONCATENATE v_data1+0(1) v_cnt3 INTO v_data1.

ENDCASE.

Like you can calculate .But if data length is dynamic and if last letter is 'J' value will be 10 so adjust your program dynamically.

data: alpha type c length 26 value 'ABCDE...XYZ'.

store all alphabets in it form A to Z

data: var, var1 type c value '00002A'. "watever ur value is

data: moff type i.

find first occurence of var+5(1) in alpha match offset moff.

concatenate var+0(5) moff into var1.

var 1 will have the value dat u want..

This will do..

Reward !!!
