Hi ,

Use formatting options like

wa_tab-fld = 'sunday creditors - GR / IR CLEARING ACCOUNT '

this is the actual data

if you want to split this data in the following way

&wa_tab-fld+0(16)& - it will print first 20 characters from 1 character (sunday creditors )

&wa_tab-fld+16(30)& - it will print 30 characters from 16th character (GR / IR CLEARING ACCOUNT)

if you give loke this

&wa_tab-fld+16& - it will print from 16th character to end (GR / IR CLEARING ACCOUNT)

Let me know if any concerns.....

Hi,

Better you call a subroutine from the script

And use..SPLIT Function.

Like

v_string = 'sunday creditors - GR / IR CLEARING ACCOUNT '.

SPLIT v_string by '-' into table it_string.

You will get two rows in it_string which can be used to futther operation...

like ::: it_sting[0] = ''sunday creditors '.

it_string[1] = 'GR / IR CLEARING ACCOUNT'.
