Hi,

In the variable text, leading and closing blanks are completely removed and any other directly consecutive blanks are all replaced by exactly one space character or - if NO-GAPS is specified - are also removed completely.

See the example.

DATA: BEGIN OF sentence,

word1(30) TYPE c VALUE 'She',

word2(30) TYPE c VALUE 'feeds',

word3(30) TYPE c VALUE 'you',

word4(30) TYPE c VALUE 'tea',

word5(30) TYPE c VALUE 'and',

word6(30) TYPE c VALUE 'oranges',

END OF sentence,

text TYPE string.

text = sentence.

CONDENSE text.

Hi,

You can remove the spaces using the following key word.

Condense.

Eg: text = 'a b c d'.

condense text with no gaps. now output abcd.

Plz. try this one and I am not sure the spelling and syntax you can press F1 on condense statement you can the help and example also.

If any doubts reply.
