String - Blank line in between

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have a field that is of string data type. I am filling the string by concatenating some PO texts . Now I need to induce a new line in between the data based on a condition.

Or in other words i want to start some partof data on next line.

How can i do this?

thanks

Try concatenating the line feed cl_abap_char_utilities=>CR_LF

in your string.

Hello Dan,

You can use cl_abap_char_utilities=>CR_LF utility class variable in your logic. We used this in our project.

To add a new line you can use:

data: text type string.
data: l_newline type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline.

concatenate 'Use new line' l_newline 'here.' into text.

So you have:

Use new line

here.

Hi Alvaro Achin,

Its not working:

In output, i am getting Use new line #here.

i need it as :

Use new line

here.

Hello Dan,

Try to make use of the FM's:

CONVERT_STRING_TO_TABLE

LXE_COMMON_XSTRING_TO_TABLE

G_BOOL_CONVERT_STRING_TO_TABLE

SWA_STRING_TO_TABLE

SWDP_STRING_TO_TABLE

C14W_STRING_TO_TLINE

We used the FM "C14W_STRING_TO_TLINE" in our projects. This will automatically split line by line and append into an internal table.

In the debugger and list output it will look like "#" but if you download it to an ASCII file it will have a newline.

I don't think you can add new line in many features of abap (like messages)
