hi,

use this syntax.

SPLIT f AT g INTO h1 ... hn.

check this excample provided by SAP.

Examples

DATA: NAMES(30) TYPE C VALUE 'Charly, John , Peter',

NAMES2 TYPE STRING,

ONE(10) TYPE C,

TWO(10) TYPE C,

THREE TYPE STRING,

FOUR(4) TYPE C VALUE 'FOUR',

DELIMITER(2) VALUE ','.

SPLIT NAMES AT DELIMITER INTO ONE TWO.

• ONE contains 'Charly' and TWO contains 'John , Pet'.

• SY-SUBRC is 4, because TWO was not large enough to

• accommodate the whole of the remaining string

SPLIT NAMES AT ',' INTO ONE TWO THREE.

• ONE contains 'Charly', TWO contains ' John',

• THREE contains ' Peter'.

SPLIT NAMES AT ', ' INTO ONE THREE TWO.

• ONE contains 'Charly', THREE contains 'John',

• TWO contains 'Peter'.

CONCATENATE NAMES '' INTO NAMES2 SEPARATED BY SPACE.

SPLIT NAMES2 AT DELIMITER INTO ONE TWO THREE FOUR.

• ONE contains 'Charly', TWO contains 'John',

• THREE contains 'Peter ', FOUR is empty.

SPLIT NAMES2 AT DELIMITER INTO ONE FOUR THREE.

• ONE contains 'Charly', FOUR contains 'John',

• THREE contains 'Peter', SY-SUBRC is 4, since

• FOUR was not large enough (spaces are significant

• characters!)

HI,

You can Split a String In Any no of Parts.

You will find SPLIT syntax in Help document.

hi suresh,

see the code

DATA: NAMES(30) TYPE C VALUE 'Charly, John , Peter',

NAMES2 TYPE STRING,

ONE(10) TYPE C,

TWO(10) TYPE C,

THREE TYPE STRING,

FOUR(4) TYPE C VALUE 'FOUR',

DELIMITER(2) VALUE ','.

SPLIT NAMES AT DELIMITER INTO ONE TWO.

• ONE contains 'Charly' and TWO contains 'John , Pet'.

• SY-SUBRC is 4, because TWO was not large enough to

• accommodate the whole of the remaining string

SPLIT NAMES AT ',' INTO ONE TWO THREE.

• ONE contains 'Charly', TWO contains ' John',

• THREE contains ' Peter'.

SPLIT NAMES AT ', ' INTO ONE THREE TWO.

• ONE contains 'Charly', THREE contains 'John',

• TWO contains 'Peter'.

CONCATENATE NAMES '' INTO NAMES2 SEPARATED BY SPACE.

SPLIT NAMES2 AT DELIMITER INTO ONE TWO THREE FOUR.

• ONE contains 'Charly', TWO contains 'John',

• THREE contains 'Peter ', FOUR is empty.

SPLIT NAMES2 AT DELIMITER INTO ONE FOUR THREE.

• ONE contains 'Charly', FOUR contains 'John',

• THREE contains 'Peter', SY-SUBRC is 4, since

• FOUR was not large enough (spaces are significant

• characters!)

Hi suresh Kumar,

Welcome to SDN.

You can split a string into parts as follows.

Example:

DATA:

string(50) TYPE c VALUE 'Venkat,Srinivas,Bhrammam',

w_variable1(10) TYPE c,

w_variable2(10) TYPE c,

w_variable3(10) TYPE c,

partition TYPE c VALUE ','.

SPLIT string AT partition INTO w_variable1 w_variable2 w_variable3.

WRITE:

/ w_variable1,w_variable2,w_variable3.

Hope this helps you.

Regards,

Rama.

Splitting Character Strings

To split a character string into two or more smaller strings, use the SPLIT statement as follows:

SPLIT <c> AT <del> INTO <c1> ... <cn>.

The system searches the field <c> for the separator <del>. The parts before and after the

separator are placed in the target fields <c1> ... <cn>.

To place all fragments in different target fields, you must specify enough target fields. Otherwise,

the last target field is filled with the rest of the field <c> and still contains delimiters.

If all target fields are long enough and no fragment has to be truncated, SY-SUBRC is set to 0.

Otherwise it is set to 4.

DATA: STRING(60),

P1(20) VALUE '++++++++++++++++++++',

P2(20) VALUE '++++++++++++++++++++',

P3(20) VALUE '++++++++++++++++++++',

P4(20) VALUE '++++++++++++++++++++',

DEL(3) VALUE '***'.

STRING = ' Part 1 *** Part 2 *** Part 3 *** Part 4 *** Part 5'.

WRITE STRING.

SPLIT STRING AT DEL INTO P1 P2 P3 P4.

WRITE / P1.

WRITE / P2.

WRITE / P3.

WRITE / P4.

The output appears as follows:

Part 1 *** Part 2 *** Part 3 *** Part 4 *** Part 5

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Part 4 *** Part 5

Note that the contents of the fields P1 ...P4 are totally overwritten and that they are

filled out with trailing blanks.

You can also split a string into the individual lines of an internal table as follows:

SPLIT <c> AT <del> INTO TABLE <itab>.

The system adds a new line to the internal table <itab> for each part of the string.

Hi Suresh,

See this example code ...

DATA: BEGIN OF file_all OCCURS 0,
          all(1000) TYPE c,
        END OF file_all.
CALL FUNCTION 'UPLOAD_FILES'
       EXPORTING
*           i_trunclen = ''
            i_filetype = 'ASC'
            i_xpc      = i_xpc
       TABLES
            file_all   = file_all
            tab_file   = tab_file
       EXCEPTIONS
            error_file = 1
            OTHERS     = 2.

  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
            WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
  ENDIF.

  LOOP AT file_all.

    SPLIT file_all AT ';' INTO it_file-bankl
                               it_file-banka
                               it_file-provz
                               it_file-stras
                               it_file-ort01
                               it_file-swift
                               it_file-bnklz
                               it_file-brnch.

"ur code...........
Endloop.

Hi Suresh,

Below is the syntax:

SPLIT <c> AT <del> INTO <c1>... <cn> INTO TABLE <itab>

[IN BYTE MODE|IN CHARACTER MODE].

This statement searches the character field <c> for delimiter strings <del> and the parts before and after the delimiters are placed in the target fields <c1> ...> u2026 <cn>, or into a new line of the internal table <itab>. In Unicode programs, you must specify whether the statement is a character or byte operation, using the IN BYTE MODE or IN CHARACTER MODE (default) additions.

Try to use this if this could help you.
