Problems with display value in the cell of a table

[Former Member]

Hi experts!

I have this problem: I have a value of variable that is displayed in a cell of my table. This variable is type char, but the value is numeric for ex. 000000000176. I have to delete in this visualization this zeros. Is there a simple method for delete this zeros directly as property of the field of the table that I visualize in the web dynpro?

Use function module 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT' before the binding the table with the context

Hi,

You can use CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT Conversion Exits to trim the preceeding zeros.

DATA: TEMP TYPE C LENGTH 10 VALUE '000000123'.
DATA TEMP1 TYPE C LENGTH 10.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
  EXPORTING
    INPUT         = TEMP
 IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        = TEMP1
          .
" TEMP1 will have '123'.

I hope it helps.

Tks a lot, I have solved associating the routine conversion CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT at the data element and after, when I have binded the field, I formatted the variable selecting "compress input".

Go to the properties of context attribute to which this table column is binded. There is a option to remve leading zeros. or before binding the table to context node. remove the leading zeros by this statement:

shift <your variable containing values> left deleting leading 'O'. now bind the table to node.

unfortunately this property is not avalaible for variable type char... I have only the property "Formatting" and I have this options:

Compression: default value

compress input

do not compress input

I have selected "compress input" but I have always the zeros displayed...

Hi,

As Vishal suggested, you can use the SHIFT statement and try to replace Zeroes with spaces later..

Try this out........

Is there any restriction in using this C type...I mean why dont you use the 'I' or N types..
