SPLIT statement

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Suppose i have a code which look like.

DATA : file_name1 type fileintern.

Data : file_name TYPE fileintern VALUE '/sst_data/ACE/cdc/send/vtdwh/bmw_atl_cdc_I062_it_prices.dat',

split file_name at 24 into file_name1 in character mode.

when i executed this code it giving some error

"The VALUE specification is longer than the corresponding field. The VALUE specification will only be passed to the field length!

i want file_name1 = /sst_data/ACE/cdc/send/

Thanks in advance

HI Abdul,

It is either:

file_name1 = file_name+0(24). or

split file_name at 'vtdwh/bmw_atl_cdc_I062_it_prices.dat'

into file_name1 in character mode.

REPORT ychatest.

DATA : file_name TYPE fileintern VALUE '/sst_data/ACE/cdc/send/vtdwh/bmw_atl_cdc_I062_it_prices.dat'.

SEARCH file_name FOR 'send'.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
  sy-fdpos = sy-fdpos + 5.
  file_name = file_name+0(sy-fdpos).
  WRITE : file_name.
ENDIF.

Hi abdul,

When you are sure of splitting at 24th character, why don't you offset it ?

file_name1 = file_name+0(24).

This would give you the correct result with out any hassel.

Award points if it helps.
