FIND doesn't find my pattern

[dominik_klaffke]

Hi all,

I'm using function

FIND `##` IN l_text MATCH OFFSET l_off.

to search the pattern '##' in string l_text. But the function fails and returns sy-subrc = 4. The pattern '##' is definitely included in l_text. What am I doing wrong?

Regards,

Dominik

Hi Dominik,

Try with SEARCH.

data l_text(20).

data d1 type i.

l_text = 'amit##tyagi'.

FIND '##' IN l_text MATCH OFFSET d1.

if sy-subrc = 0.

write d1.

else.

write ' not found'.

endif.

try sentence SEARCH.

SEARCH i_text FOR '###'

The had ## you see in not ##. it must be an end of line character.

Hi,

I tried

FIND `##` IN l_text MATCH OFFSET l_off IN CHARACTER MODE.

It doesn't work.

I'm sure it's an end-of-line-character. But how can I find 2 end-of-line-characters in a text if the solution above doesn't work?

Best regards,

Dominik
