use SPLIT into table command. It will split your string into table lines, you can specify the splitter - which is in your case "/".

Hi,

you can try using regular expressions:

DATA: filename TYPE string VALUE '/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/dir5/file.ccc'.

REPLACE REGEX '(.*)/(.*)/([^/])*$' IN filename WITH '$1/Temp' .

as result filename = '/dir1/dir2/dir3/dir4/Temp'

Hello Ankush,

You can even use the offset and delete the entries.

DATA:filepath TYPE CHAR40,
      c_lv_filepath TYPE CHAR40,
      c_lv_filepath1 TYPE CHAR40.

filepath = '/dirname/filename/1011/abc.txt'.

c_lv_filepath = filepath+0(18).

CONCATENATE c_lv_filepath 'Temp' INTO c_lv_filepath1.

WRITE:/ c_lv_filepath1.

OUTPUT:

/dirname/filename/Temp.
