Reward if helpful.

Hi Jim,

You need to use CS in this case.

Hi

You have to use CS -Contains String for your purpose

see the others

CO--Contains Only

CS--Contains String

CN--Contains Not Only

CA-- Contains Any

NA--Contains Not Any

NS--Contains No String

CP--COntains Pattern

NP--No Pattern

Hi,

CP : Covers Pattern: True, if the content of operand1 fits the pattern in operand2. Wildcard characters can be used for forming the operand pattern, where "" represents any character string, and "+" represents any character. Upper/lower case is not taken into account. If the comparison is true, sy-fdpos contains the offset of operand2 in operand1, whereby leading wildcard characters "" in operand2 are ignored if operand2 also contains other characters. If the comparison is false, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1. You can select characters in operand2 for a direct comparison by adding the escape symbol "#" before the required characters. For these characters, upper/lower case is taken into account, wildcard characters and the escape symbol itself do not receive special treatment, and trailing blanks in operands of type c are not cut off.

CS :

Contains String: True if the content of operand2 is contained in operand1. Upper/lower case is not taken into account, trailing blanks of the left operand are taken into account. If operand1 is of type string and initial, or of type c and contains only blank characters, the logical expression is false, unless operand2 is also of type string and initial, or of type c and only contains blank characters. In this case the logical expression is always true. If the result of the comparison is true, sy-fdpos contains the offset of operand2 in operand1. If the result of the comparison is negative, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1.

<b>When you know the exact string to be searched , you can go for CS</b>

hi,

chk out this

<b><b>CO</b></b> Contains Only: True, if operand1 only contains characters from operand2. Upper/lower case and trailing blanks are taken into account for both operands. If operand2 is of type string and is initial, then the logical expression is false, unless operand1 is also of type string and is initial, in which case the logical expression is always true. If the result of the comparison is negative, sy-fdpos contains the offset of the first character in operand1, that is not contained in operand2. If the result of the comparison is positive, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1.

<b>CN</b> Contains Not Only; True if a logical expression with CO is false, that is, if operand1 contains not only characters from operand2. sy-fdpos is set in the same way as for CO. If the comparison is true, sy-fdpos contains the offset of the first character in operand1 that is not contained in operand2. If the comparison is false, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1.

CA Contains Any: True, if operand1 contains at least one character from operand2. Upper/lower case and trailing blanks are taken into account for both operands. If operand1 or operand2 is of type string and initial, the logical expression is always false. If result of the comparison is positive, sy-fdpos contains the offset of the first character in operand1 that is also contained in operand2. If the result of the comparison is negative, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1.

<b>NA</b> Contains Not Any: True if a logical expression with CA is false, that is if operand1 does not contain any characters from operand2. If the result of the comparison is negative, sy-fdpos contains the offset of the first character in operand1 that is also contained in operand2. If the result of the comparison is true, sy-fdpos contains the le of operand1.

CS Contains String: True if the content of operand2 is contained in operand1. Upper/lower case is not taken into account, trailing blanks of the left operand are taken into account. If operand1 is of type string and initial, or of type c and contains only blank characters, the logical expression is false, unless operand2 is also of type string and initial, or of type c and only contains blank characters. In this case the logical expression is always true. If the result of the comparison is true, sy-fdpos contains the offset of operand2 in operand1. If the result of the comparison is negative, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1.

<b>NS</b> Contains No String: True, if a logical expression with CS is false, that is if operand1 does not contain the content of operand2. If the result of the comparison is negative, sy-fdpos contains the offset of operand2. If the comparison is true, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1.

<b>CP</b> Covers Pattern: True, if the content of operand1 fits the pattern in operand2. Wildcard characters can be used for forming the operand2 pattern, where "" represents any character string, and "+" represents any character. Upper/lower case is not taken into account. If the comparison is true, sy-fdpos contains the offset of operand2 in operand1, whereby leading wildcard characters "" in operand2 are ignored if operand2 also contains other characters. If the comparison is false, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1. You can select characters in operand2 for a direct comparison by adding the escape symbol "#" before the required characters. For these characters, upper/lower case is taken into account, wildcard characters and the escape symbol itself do not receive special treatment, and trailing blanks in operands of type c are not cut off.

<b>NP</b> No Pattern: True, if a logical expression with CP is false, that is, if operand1 does not fit the pattern operand2. If the comparison is false, sy-fdpos contains the offset of operand2 in operand1, whereby leading wildcard characters "*" in operand2 are ignored if operand2 also contains other characters. If the comparison is true, sy-fdpos contains the length of operand1.
