• The followoing are my requirements : *

1) I want to count the number of characters in this source file. This source file is stored in a structure ITAB.

2) Also I want to count the number of '/' slash in this source file.

3) I want to compare the number of characters in the source file till the last '/' to that of the number before '\' i.e., 1559, which is the cheksum number.

Please let me know on this ASAP. Points to be awarded to precise answers for all 3 questions. Thanks in advance.

Hello Debaprasad Narendra,

I guess the easiest way is to first convert the ITAB to a string.

DATA:

zlv_string TYPE string.

LOOP AT itab.

CONCATENATE zlv_string itab INTO zlv_string.

ENDLOOP.

Then you can use the FIND statement to answer your questions.

Regards,

John.

Hi,,

have a look at this code.

data:

w_char(256) type c value 'i love india'.

data:

w_temp like sy-index,

w_index type i.

data:

w_letter type c valu 'i'.

do.

search w_char for w_letter .

if sy-subrc eq 0.

w_temp = w_temp + 1.

w_index = sy-fdpos + 1.

w_char = w_char+w_index.

else.

exit.

endif.

enddo.

i think this code will help u to solve u r problem plzz reward if it is usefull

Debaprasad,

what are the fields in itab? As per your quey i think you have one field.

If yes..

DATA : v_num TYPE i,

v_count TYPE I value 1,

v_char_cnt TYPE i,

v_slah_cnt TYPE i..

v_num = strlen( itab-field ).

do v_num TIMES.

IF itab-field+0(v_count) CA SY-ABCDE.

v_char_cnt = v_char_cnt + 1.

v_count = v_count + 1.

ELSEIF itab-field+0(v_count) CO '/'.

v_slah_cnt = v_slah_cnt + 1.

ENDDO.

Don't forget to reward if useful......

Hi,

initially

loop at itab

split itab at '/' into string.

if sy-subrc eq 0.

w_num = w_num + 1.

endif.

w_int = strlen( string ).

w_sum = w_int + w_sum+1.

endloop.

here u will get w_num is number of slashes

w_int = lettercount before /

w_sum eq number of letters in the file.

Plzz reward points if it helps.

Hello

Please check the code as below

1) I want to count the number of characters in this source file. This source file is stored in a structure ITAB.

-

---

data cnt type i.

Loop at itab.

cnt = cnt + strlen( itab-data ).

endloop.

-

---

Now the variable cnt will have the total number of characters in the file.

2) Also I want to count the number of '/' slash in this source file.

-

---

data : cnt_slash type i.

data : cnt_line type i.

loop at itab.

cnt_line = strlen( itab-data ).

do cnt_line times.

if itab-data+sy-index( 1 ) = '/'.

cnt_slash = cnt_slash + 1.

endif.

enddo.

endloop.

Now cnt_slash will contain the number of '/'s in the ITAB.

-

---

3) I want to compare the number of characters in the source file till the last '/' to that of the number before '\' i.e., 1559, which is the cheksum number.

-

---

data : slash_pos type i.

data check_sum type i.

data : cnt_line type i.

data : cnt_chars type i.

loop at itab.

cnt_line = strlen( itab-data ).

do cnt_line times.

if itab-data+sy-index( 1 ) = '/'.

slash_pos = sy-index + 1.

cnt_char = cnt_char + 1.

endif.

if itab-data+sy-index( 1 ) = '\'.

check_sum = itab-data+slash_pos( sy-index ).

slash_pos = sy-index + 1.

else.

cnt_char = cnt_char + 1.

endif.

enddo.

endloop.

Now cnt_char will have total character - check sum characters. Check_sum will have the number between '/' and '\'.

1) I want to count the number of characters in this source file. This source file is stored in a structure ITAB.

loop the itab

concatenate all the fields into a TEMP string

use DESCRIBE FIELD temp length len

where len a variable of type i

use an accumalator to store this len value as

total_size = total_size + len

Use this code for the following 2 questions

DATA: RESULT_TAB TYPE MATCH_RESULT_TAB.

FIELD-SYMBOLS <MATCH> LIKE LINE OF RESULT_TAB.

FIND ALL OCCURRENCES OF '\' IN INFILE RESULTS RESULT_TAB.

LOOP AT RESULT_TAB ASSIGNING <MATCH>.

AT LAST.

LV_POS = <MATCH>-OFFSET.

ENDAT.

ENDLOOP.

Thanks. The second part of my question was answered. Please let me know about the first and the last part.

[Former Member]

1) What i meant by the third question is:

The number of chracters(say i_count) until the last '/' (forward slash) should be equal to the number before the '\' (backward slash) i.e., 1559(say w_count). Now that this number(w_count) is in a structure, how do i check that the (i_count = w_count).

2) Also how do I delete the last record of an internal table. ??
