Replacing strings

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Suggestions on how to replace strings seen in the output structure. For example: I am displaying a functional location structure(ABC) in the output. I need to have a button saying "Find/Replace". This triggers a popup box wherein, I will have to enter REplace ABC with DEF and pres the TICK button on the popup. I need to see all the ABCs in the structure being replaced by DEFs. Does anybody know how to do this.

Hi,

you could use function module 'RS_FIND_REPLACE_DIALOG'.

Thanks for the response. But I believe this function module gives a popup box. But inmy case, I am creating a popup box where the from value and the To value are entered. And then when the green tick mark is selected, the value entered as the From value is replaced with the value entered as the To value.

I didn't understand yet what you are looking for. You want to develop a function which is already existing in SAP standard?

Ok here is what I actually want. I am displaying a tree structure having the functional location and respective descriptions in the output. This output will contain a button saying Find/Replace. Once I press this button, I must get a popup which gives me fields like Replace FL from and Replace FL to. It will also have another fields saying Replace decsription from and replace description to. I am building this screen in SE51. Now when I enter values within this screen and press OKAY, the value entered in Replace from should be replaced by the values enetered in Replace to fields and the structure should now be seen with the replaced values. Can you tell me how this replace is done

From what i can see, i don't think you are a ABAPer. Get hold of a ABAPer to get the module pool programming done.

Hmm - why don't you use SAP standard instead of creating it on your own? And if you do - just debug the find and replace function in SAP - it will give you the steps you'll need as would looking at function module RS_FIND_REPLACE_DIALOG.
