How can i use STRLEN function in a sapscript ?

I want to know lenght of a variable (&EKKO-TZX01&) and if's less than 40 char's I want put spaces until 40 char's.

It's possible in sapscript ?

For ur requirement

You can replace leading spaces in a value with a fill character. Use the F option with the character immediately following the F in the specification as the fill character.

Syntax

&symbol(F f )&

f = fill character

Eg.:

Initially if &KNA1-UMSAT& -> 700.00

&KNA1-UMSAT(F*)& -> **700.00

So u can use &ekko-txz01(F )&
