hi..

U can use<b> replace</b> statement

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

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.
