Hi experts,

I want to use the "concatenate" function but it doesn't work with data with type DEC.

How can I convert DEC data (to CHAR for example).

Thanks for support.

Regards,

David

Hi David

Move the decimal value to a temporary character variable and then use for concatenation.

I hope below example can help you understand.


data: l_float(15) type p decimals 2 value '123.34',
      l_string type string.

move l_float to l_string.

write:/ l_string.

concatenate 'Value:' l_string into l_string separated by space.

write:/ l_string.

Kind Regards
