how to use the FM 'SCMS_TEXT_TO_BINARY'

1462 Views

Hello SDNers,

I need to convert ASCII table content into binary for which I have used the FM 'SCMS_TEXT_TO_BINARY'.

data : GT_SDOKCNTASCS type SDOKCNTASCS,

gt_binary type table of BAPICONTEN.

DESCRIBE TABLE let_sdokcntascs LINES lv_lines.

GT_SDOKCNTASCS [ ] = leT_SDOKCNTASCS [ ].

CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_TEXT_TO_BINARY'

EXPORTING

first_line = 1

last_line = lv_lines

append_to_table = 'X'

TABLES

text_tab = GT_SDOKCNTASCS

binary_tab = gt_binary.

However when I check the output in my file i get some junk data. GT_SDOKCNTASCS gets converted to gt_binary however there is some special characters which get appended.

for example the contents in

GT_SDOKCNTASCS->line1 = hello

GT_SDOKCNTASCS->line2 = how are u

The output in binary comes as

hello

how are u 000000000000000000000000

00000000000000000000000000000000

000000000000000000000000000000000

Please suggest a solution.

Regards,

S Sarma
