You can use SPLIT statement.

DATA lt_substr TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF string.

SPLIT 'ABC#DEF#GHI' AT '#' INTO TABLE lt_substr.

In addition of Alex, Now LT_sunstr will have 3 row 1 will have ABC 2nd DEF and 3rd GHI. now if you want to show them on UI.

** demo code.

loop LT_sunstr to wa. (wa type string)

write wa.

skip.

endloop.

you need to know 2things in ABAP.

New line character in ABAP ..

Split statement in ABAP... Splitting Character Strings (SAP Library - ABAP Programming (BC-ABA))

Please read both before doing anything.,

Hello,

use the following line.

replace all occurrence  of '#' IN line with CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE.

By using this CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE , your data will be visible to you in ABC#.. etc format but that # will be symbol of new line. so data will store in DB in ABC#... format and on UI 

abc

bcd

format.

** Line, string input.

First check actual value of # in your string, # can be any non-displayable character, once you are sure, then you may use SPLIT statement.

Would be considered as spoon feeding,  (Read the Rules of Engagement)

(And a code for a single statement....)
