how can I get last character from a field of type char(12)?

in this field it may possible that it have only 3 char(ie. 'abc').

and how can append a character in the end of field(char 12)of data base table.

in this field it may possible that it have only 3 char(ie. 'abc').

Hi Anutosh

Capturing the last charecter can be done by either right-justifying he field and then taking the last char or by measuring the length of the string and then take offset accordingly.

Coming to the second part of your question (how can append a character in the end of field(char 12)of data base table?) once you get the length of the existing string say 3 char long ('ABC'). now add a new char at 12th position in the string if you want it in the end or at the strlen(string lenght) position if you want it immediately after your actual string.

see if this is what you are looking for...

REPORT yytest88 LINE-COUNT 20 NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.

parameters : p_scr1(12) obligatory default 'ABC'.

data : wa_test(12) value ' X'.

overlay p_scr1 with wa_test.

write 😕 p_scr1.

Hi

DATA: STRING(12) TYPE C VALUE 'ABC',

WA LIKE STRING.

DATA: LEN TYPE I.

  • Calculate how many positions are filled:

LEN = STRLEN( STRING ).

WRITE STRING(LEN) TO WA RIGHT-JUSTIFIED.

STRING = WA.

Hi ,

how can I get last character from a field of type char(12)?

in this field it may possible that it have only 3 char(ie. 'abc').

DATA : STR_LENGTH TYPE SY-TABIX,

V_OFF_SET TYPE SY-TABIX.

STR_LENGTH = STRLEN( Field ).

V_OFF_SET = STR_LENGTH - 1.

Field1 = Field+V_OFF_SET(STR_LENGTH ).

Hi Anutosh,

For your frist question move the field towards right side using 'RIGHT-JUSTIFIED' and take the offset of the field.

Hi Anutosh,

Try this..

DATA: V_FLD(10) VALUE 'ASD',

V_LEN TYPE I,

V_LEN1 TYPE I,

V_TEXT.

V_LEN = STRLEN( V_FLD ).

V_LEN1 = V_LEN - 1.

V_TEXT = V_FLD+V_LEN1(V_LEN).

WRITE:/ V_TEXT.
