Split last string

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have some strings like these:

1. AAA-BBB-CC-DDDD-ZZZ

2. AA-BBBB-C-DDD-ZZZZ

3. A-BB-ZZZ

4. AA-ZZZZZZ

......

I have to split string and get the last string(Z..) that after the last '-'.

Best regards,

Hi,

Try this:

1. split the string into table at '-'.

2. describe table to get the no of records

3. read table index sy-tfill.

As Prasenjit says something like this will do it.

  DATA: lt_string TYPE TABLE OF string,
        lr_last TYPE REF TO string,
        lv_lines TYPE i.

  SPLIT 'AAA-BBB-CC-DDDD-ZZZ' AT `-` INTO TABLE lt_string.

  lv_lines = LINES( lt_string ).
  READ TABLE lt_string REFERENCE INTO lr_last INDEX lv_lines.

  WRITE: /, lr_last->*.

Hi Munur,

You can use the function module STRING_SPLIT by using the delimiter as '-'. This will meet your requirement.

Hi,

Refer code:-

DATA : itab TYPE TABLE OF string,
       wa LIKE LINE OF itab,
       v_lines TYPE i.

PARAMETERS : p_string TYPE string.

START-OF-SELECTION.

  SPLIT p_string AT '-' INTO TABLE itab.
  DESCRIBE TABLE itab
  LINES v_lines.

  READ TABLE itab INTO wa INDEX v_lines. "<--you get the desired string

Hope this helps you.
