sy-langu shows only beginning charcter than 2 charcters

[Former Member]

hi,

SY-LANGU uses only one charcter.

Eq: in my program i am using sy-langu. While saving it saves as 'E' rather than 'EN'.

Could you explain on this.

Due to conversion exit.

Function modules

CONVERSION_EXIT_ISOLA_INPUT Convert two-digit ISO language -> one-digit SAP language key

CONVERSION_EXIT_ISOLA_OUTPUT Convert One-digit SAP Lang. Key to Two-digit ISO Lang. Key

CONVERSION_EXIT_ISOLA_INPUT

CONVERSION_EXIT_ISOLA_OUTPUT

You can see the langu fiels in the SYST structure in SE11. Its is of 1 character therefore it stores only E of EN.

For EN it use the conversion routine ISOLA which has 2 length output.

Hope its clear.

Could you tell how can i display 2 characters

Eq:

for 'E' i should display 'EN'.

[Sm1tje]

For that you should use the conversion routines mentioned above.

[former_member195383]

as mentioned in the above answers use,

CONVERSION_EXIT_ISOLA_OUTPUT,

in the parameter INPUT pass 'E'

You will get 'EN' in output.

data lang(2).

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ISOLA_OUTPUT'

EXPORTING

INPUT = 'E'

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = lang.

The lang will now have EN

[awin_prabhu]

Use like below.

REPORT ztest.

DATA: lang TYPE sy-langu,

str(2) TYPE c.

lang = sy-langu.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ISOLA_OUTPUT'

EXPORTING

input = lang

IMPORTING

output = str.

write:/ str.

Hi,

select LAISO from T002 into l_lan where SPRAS = 'E'.

Then En will be fetched.
