hi check the replace statement... hit F1 on replace and make ur code..

Basic form

REPLACE f WITH g INTO h.

Addition

... LENGTH len (length specification for field f )

Effect

Replaces the first occurrence of the contents of field f in field h with the contents of field g . All fields are handled in their defined length; this means that closing blanks are not ignored.

The return code value indicates whether the string f was found in h and replaced by g :

SY-SUBRC = 0 String replaced.

SY_SUBRC = 4 String not replaced.

Example

DATA FIELD(10).

MOVE 'ABCB' TO FIELD.

REPLACE 'B' WITH 'string' INTO FIELD.

returns:

FIELD = 'AstringCB', SY-SUBRC = 0

Note

The fields f and g in the REPLACE statement should not overlap. Otherwise, the result is undefined.

Addition

... LENGTH len ... (length specification for field f )

Effect

Searches for the string f in the field h not in its (full) field length, but in the length len .

Example

DATA: PATTERN(5) VALUE 'ABC',

LEN TYPE I,

REPL_STRING(5) VALUE '12345',

FIELD(12) VALUE 'abcdeABCDE'.

REPLACE PATTERN WITH REPL_STRING

INTO FIELD.

does not change FIELD , since 'ABC ' does not occur in abcdeABCDE ' .

LEN = STRLEN( PATTERN ).

REPLACE PATTERN LENGTH LEN

WITH REPL_STRING

INTO FIELD.

data:data(13) value '/ABCD/te_12' .

data:output(13).

output0(1) = ''.

output1(7) = data1(7).

OUTPUT+8(1) = '/'.

OUTPUT9(3) = data9(3).

WRITE:/ OUTPUT.

HI CKECK IT ,
