<b>REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF ‘-’ WITH SPACE into lv_string .</b>

REPLACE<strl>WITH<str2>INTO<c>[LENGTH<1>].

ABAP/4 searches the field <c> for the first occurrence of the first, <1> positions of the pattern <str1>. If no length is specified, it searches for the pattern <str1> in its full length.

To replace a string in a field with a different string, use the REPLACE statement.

REPLACE <str1> WITH <str2> INTO <c> [LENGTH <l>].

The statement searches the field <c> for the first occurrence of the first <l> positions of the pattern <str1>. If no length is specified, it searches for the pattern <str1> in its full length.

Then, the statement replaces the first occurrence of the pattern <str1> in field <c> with the string <str2>. If a length <l> was specified, only the relevant part of the pattern is replaced.

If the return code value of the system field SY-SUBRC is set to 0, this indicates that <str1> was found in <c> and replaced by <str2>. A return code value other than 0 means that nothing was replaced. <str1>, <str2>, and <len> can be variables.

DATA: T(10) VALUE 'abcdefghij',

STRING LIKE T,

STR1(4) VALUE 'cdef',

STR2(4) VALUE 'klmn',

STR3(2) VALUE 'kl',

STR4(6) VALUE 'klmnop',

LEN TYPE I VALUE 2.

STRING = T.

WRITE STRING.

REPLACE STR1 WITH STR2 INTO STRING.

WRITE / STRING.

STRING = T.

REPLACE STR1 WITH STR2 INTO STRING LENGTH LEN.

WRITE / STRING.

STRING = T.

REPLACE STR1 WITH STR3 INTO STRING.

WRITE / STRING.

STRING = T.

REPLACE STR1 WITH STR4 INTO STRING.

WRITE / STRING.

The output appears as follows:

abcdefghij

abklmnghij

abklmnefgh

abklghij

abklmnopgh

Hi Praneeth,

The correct Syntax is,

replace all occurrences of '-' in lv_temp with space.

Hai Praneeth

Basic form

REPLACE f WITH g INTO h.

Addition

... LENGTH len (length specification for field f )

Effect

Replaces the first occurrence of the contents of field f in field h with the contents of field g . All fields are handled in their defined length; this means that closing blanks are not ignored.

The return code value indicates whether the string f was found in h and replaced by g :

SY-SUBRC = 0 String replaced.

SY_SUBRC = 4 String not replaced.

Example

DATA FIELD(10).

MOVE 'ABCB' TO FIELD.

REPLACE 'B' WITH 'string' INTO FIELD.

returns:

FIELD = 'AstringCB', SY-SUBRC = 0

Note

The fields f and g in the REPLACE statement should not overlap. Otherwise, the result is undefined.

Addition

... LENGTH len ... (length specification for field f )

Effect

Searches for the string f in the field h not in its (full) field length, but in the length len .

Example

DATA: PATTERN(5) VALUE 'ABC',

LEN TYPE I,

REPL_STRING(5) VALUE '12345',

FIELD(12) VALUE 'abcdeABCDE'.

REPLACE PATTERN WITH REPL_STRING

INTO FIELD.

does not change FIELD , since 'ABC ' does not occur in abcdeABCDE ' .

LEN = STRLEN( PATTERN ).

REPLACE PATTERN LENGTH LEN

WITH REPL_STRING

INTO FIELD.

changes FIELD to 'abcde12345DE' .

Thanks for all your replies.

But i am not getting space in between,the two strings are concatenated without space in between.

Thanks

hi then u need to use split command and then use concatenatation

data : a(10),b(10),d(40).
	D = ‘Apple/Orange’.
	Split d at ‘/’ into a b.

Concatenate a b into d separated by ‘ ’.
	Write:/ d.

[Former Member]

hii Praneeth

use

<b>SPLIT STRING AT ‘-’ INTO P1 P2 P3 P4 .

CONCATENATE P1 P2 P3 P4 INTO P SEPARATED BY SPACE .</b>

I tried it ..it worked .

Hi Naresh,

The problem is I am not sure how many occurences of - will be there in my string.In that case i think this will fail.

[code]In that case declare one itab and concatenate those

check the modified one

REPORT abc.

DATA : BEGIN OF itab OCCURS 0,
            str(50),
       END OF itab.

DATA : cha(50) VALUE 'cha-sek-jskjfsjf',
       str(2000).

SPLIT cha AT '-' INTO TABLE itab.

loop at itab.

 concatenate str itab-str into str separated by space.

 endloop.

 write : str.
