Special characters in short text to get replaced...

[Former Member]

Hi,

Iam working on a code.

Now I am doing something like follows:

LOOP AT IT_FMTABLES into IT_FMTAB.

P_TABLE = IT_FMTAB-STRUCTURE.

ENDLOOP.

IT_FMTAB is a structure and IT_FMTABLES is a internal table. There is a short text name gets populated in IT_FMTAB-STRUCTURE.

I want if short text (IT_FMSTRUCTURE) contains any of the fields like / or : charcters it should get replaced by '_'

Thanks.

Rajesh.

HI Rajesh

Use REPLACE..

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '/' IN IT_FMSTRUCTURE WITH '_'.

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF ':' IN IT_FMSTRUCTURE WITH '_'.

Hi,

How can I combine these two replace statement in one ?

Replace all occurrences of ':' in IT_FMTAB-STRUCTURENAME with 'to'.

Replace all occurrences of '/' in IT_FMTAB-STRUCTURENAME with '_'.

Try:

translate IT_FMTAB-STRUCTURENAME using '/_:_'.

HI,

I think we cant combine two replace statements...

u can use 2 replace statements nothing wrong in that..

U can use TRANSLATE command.

<b>TRANSLATE IT_FMSTRUCTURE USING '/_:_'.</b>
