tostring function??

[Former Member]

Is there an ABAP version of a toStrng function in Java.

I want to input a structure/table name and I get in out put a string with all the contents of the structure as a string. It would be nice if I have options to have a field separator or if it is fixed length.

Thanks

Sure....notice here that "S" is a string.

report zrich_0003.


data: imara type table of mara with header line.
data: xmara type mara.

data: s type string.


select * from mara into table imara
          up to 5 rows.

read table imara into xmara index 1.

s = xmara.


write:/ s .

tables:mara.

data:l_fieldname(30),

stri type string.

select fieldname from dd03l into l_fieldname where tabname = 'MARA'.

concatenate l_fieldname stri into stri separated by '|'.

endselect.

write : stri.

I am just going to use the transfer statement as my end goal is to write the contents to a file.

Thanks for your help
