Concatenate separated by new-line

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

How do I concatenate two strings separated by a new-line.

I mean I want a variable having two strings that are concatenated by next line.

Regards,

AFAIK there is not special character like '\n' in ABAP. perhaps this a solution:

CONCATENATE string1
            string2
  INTO string3
  SEPARATED BY special_string.

SPLIT string3
  AT special_string
  INTO TABLE itab.

LOOP AT itab INTO line.
  WRITE: / line.
ENDLOOP.

Thanks for the reply.

But I have a different problem.

Iam using ALV Grid. And I want to display the title with multiple lines.

For Example:

<b>BOM Changes

Change Number: 500000.

Board Number : Board1.

Plant : Plant1.</b>

And Iam using classes. I mean Iam using set_table_for_first_table to display the ALV Grid.

AFAIK the ALV grid is not able to display a multi-line title ...

HI Raju

Please check class: CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES.

data: l_cr(1) type c value cl_abap_char_utilites=>cr_lf,
      l_lf(1) type c value cl_abap_char_utilities=>linefeed.

One of the above will certainly help you. Am not on SAP now to check the same. Use this for concatenating.

CONCATENATE str1 str2 INTO out SEPARATED BY l_cr.

Kind Regards
