Hi experts,

I need to find in a string the point number... For exemple if var = 1.300.000, I have to find two points. So I used the Keywords "SEARCH" :

SEARCH var FOR '.'.

data pos type i.

clear pos.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

pos = sy-fdpos.

SEARCH var FOR '.' STARTING at pos.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

flag_errore = 'X'.

ELSE.

move var to valore.

ENDIF.

ENDIF.

but wheh I execute SEARCH var FOR '.'. I have sy-subrc = 4... Maybe I make an error when I use this istruction?

SEARCH is obsolute, use FIND instead

example

DATA: result_tab TYPE match_result_tab.

FIND ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX `((ab)|(ba))`

IN 'abba'

RESULTS result_tab. l
