Reverse WRITE TO ??

Posted on Nov 14, 2003 at 12:54 PM 13 Views

Hi, how do I convert an input string containing numeric data properly using the current user's settings? I.e. how do I get e.q. '1.234,56765' converted regarding decimals and thousands separator? I could not find any function doing just that, although every dynpro uses this functionality.

Any hint greatly appreciated.

TIA

Peter

    Hi Peter ,

    I am not sure of a FM but you could read table USR01 field DCPFM to determine the Decimal notation .

    Hi Peter,

    It sounds like you want to convert from external to internal format. If this is the case, you could look at class CL_FOBU_INPUT_UTIL, which was mentioned elsewhere in this forum for a similar issue. It might be what you are looking for.

    Good luck,

    Dave

    data nfmt(20) type c value '1.234,56765'.

    replace '.' with '' into nfmt.

    replace ',' with '' into nfmt.

    condense nfmt no-gaps.
