SHIFT l_spare RIGHT BY l_sp_size PLACES.

Hi,

after concatenate use RESPECTING BLANKS addition.

[Former Member]

Hi,

you have to use RESPECTING BLANKS addition in concatenate statement.

For example,

concatenate 'name' ' ' into v_name separeted by ',' RESPECTING BLANKS.

HI ,ITS NOT WORKING FOR ME CAN YOU BRIEF ME AGAIN WITH A PIECE OF SAMPLE CODE .THANX IN ADVANCE ...

[Former Member]

Hi,

As of Web AS 2.0 we cannot use CONCATENATE statement as it ignores trailing spaces but from release 7.0 this statement can be used with new addition RESPECTING BLANKS to achieve the same. So to accomplish this task in 6.20 we can use the method UCCP of class CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE.

Check this sample code..may be it will help u..

REPORT  z_sn_space.


CONSTANTS: c_space TYPE syhex02 VALUE '00a0'. " Value for space

DATA: g_space TYPE string,
             l_pos type i.

TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_data,
        field1(8) TYPE c,
       END OF ty_data.

DATA: wa_data TYPE ty_data.
DATA: i_data TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_data.

* Get the actual value for a space
g_space = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>uccp( c_space ).

wa_data-field1 = 'Joy'.
L_pos = strlen( wa_data-field1 ).
Do 5 times.

wa_data-field1+l_pos(1) = g_space.
L_pos = l_pos + 1.
Enddo.

APPEND wa_data TO i_data.
