Hello,

You can use Strlen,

DATA: int TYPE i,
      word1(20) TYPE c VALUE '12345'.
      word2(20) TYPE c.
      word3(20) TYPE c VALUE '   4         '.

int = strlen( word1 ).WRITE   int.

int = strlen( word2 ).WRITE / int.

int = strlen( word3 ).WRITE / int.

The results are 5, 0, and 4respectively.

Regards, Eduardo.

Why do you want to get this, do you want actual length of external view (output) of each field for each record or just actual maximal length by field or theorical maximal output length?
