Hi to count the number of character in text... use the following code.

data: l_length type i,
       text(200).

text = 'My TEXT'.

l_length = STRLEN( text ).

l_length = 7.

Hi,

Please check the code below:

To read the last characters of a string:

DATA: offset TYPE i.

DATA:str(15) TYPE c.

v_string = STRLEN( gt_dummy ).

v_string = v_string - 20.

       V_LEN TYPE I.

CALL FUNCTION 'STRING_LENGTH'
  EXPORTING
    STRING = V_STR
  IMPORTING
    LENGTH = V_LEN.

WRITE : / V_LEN.

hi

<b>use the inbuilt function strlen</b>

Number of characters in arg; blanks at the end of data objects with a fixed length are not counted, although they are counted in type string data objects. If you use a non-Unicode double-byte code, a character that occupies 2 bytes is counted twice.

<b>example</b>

data: v_len type i,

v_str type string value 'gggugik'.

v_len = strlen( v_str ).

write:/ v_len.
