Concatenate BSEG fields.

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I ahve to download data in a text file from SAP.The format must be ' | ' or pipe delimiter. So i am using SAP_to_convert_tex_format.But this is not working for BSEG table. So i am using concatenate for all the fields and seperated by ' | '.while conatenating i am getting syntax error for the result it_bseg1.That declare it_bseg1 as character type .i declared it_bseg1 as

data : it_bseg1(4096) type c occurs 0.

can any body tell me how to solve this one.

i wrote concatenate all fields................into it_bseg1 seperated by '|'.

Thanks,

Gopi.

hi gopi anne,

define like this,

data: it_bseg1 type string.

try to avoid this.

data : it_bseg1(4096) type c occurs 0.

reward points if helpful,

You'll probably want to convert you currency fields to character first.

Please try this example program.

report zrich_0001 .

data: ibseg type table of bseg.
data: xbseg like line of ibseg.

data: istr type table of string,
      xstr type string.
data: xtmp type string.
field-symbols: <fs>.


select * into table ibseg from bseg
           up to 100 rows.

loop at ibseg into xbseg.

  do.
    assign component sy-index of structure xbseg to <fs>.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
      exit.
    endif.
    xtmp = <fs>.
    if sy-index = 1.
      xstr = xtmp.
    else.
      concatenate xstr xtmp into xstr separated by '|'.
    endif.
  enddo.
  append xstr to istr.

endloop.

call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download
  exporting
    filename                = 'c:test.txt'
  changing
    data_tab                = istr.
