Display Special Character

Hi,
  I have developed a report which display the result in ALV.  I found that the character '&' was converted to another symbol.  Is there any FM or thing that can resolve this?? Besides, when I put '&' in the forum search, it returns error.  Does SAP support special character??
Regards,
Kit

Hi Kit,
You could try something with special characters :
e.g. this code
&#171 material &#187
produces this output
« material »
Even better is this one &#60 material &#62.
kindly reward if found helpful.
cheers,
Hema.

  • Display special character on web page

    Hello,

  • Display special character for 'Artihmetic mean'

    I can't find the character for 'Arthmetic mean', it's 'x' with a line above, any ideas!?
    I've searched several font (Symbol, Wingdings etc) but didn't found that special character...!

    Oh, I do apologise. I saw the character on wiki and assumed it was a character, rather than a graphic.
    Usually, to create interesting unicode characters, you can combine diacritics. For instance, xbar is X followed by ¯;

     (might not display on unsupported browsers)
    However LabVIEW doesn't support this, and will print x ¯ and I can't find any info on how else it might be implemented.
    You might be able to find a hack in this document
    And in the meantime, you can kudo this suggestion

  • Text Field in FB03 doc are correct but displays special character when TXT

    Hi SAP experts,
    Can anybody try to help with a very complex issue in FB03 documents?
    In SAP the documents shows Line Item Text with a simple description, for example:
    TEXT: VENDOR US#34 INVOICE

    Hi SAP experts,
    Can anybody try to help with a very complex issue in FB03 documents?
    In SAP the documents shows Line Item Text with a simple description, for example:
    LINE ITEM TEXT: VENDOR US#34 INVOICE
    When the job scheduling team runs an interface that gathers all the FB03 documents to be sent to another legacy, it generates very big TXT files of accounting documents.
    When you open the TXT file, the text :
    VENDOR US#34 INVOICE
    is transformed into :
    VENDOR USÂ@34 INVOICE
    Which means # is transformed into special characters making failure in the load in the Legacy.
    This happens when text contains # - ´ ##
    Can anybody shed any light as to why TXT transforms the original text into special characters?
    Regards

  • How do I get Special character Euro symbol € to display ?

    Hi,
    How do I get the euro symbol € to display in Flash from
    PHP file created in DW ?. It does not display it properly. I have
    simplified the PHP code I have is:
    <?php
    $msgtoflash = "This is the Euro Symbol &#8364";
    print ("&Databaseinfo=$msgtoflash");
    ?>
    The &#8364 is a special character code for HTML.
    If I use the $ or £ symbols it works perfectly but not

    The way to get the euro symbol to display in Flash is to use
    XML. I have
    tested this, and it works:
    euro.php
    <?php
    header('Content-type: text/xml');
    echo '<root>
    <elem>This is the euro symbol:
    &#8364;</elem>
    </root>';
    ?>
    ActionScript 2.0 to display the value of <elem> in a
    dynamic text field
    called myText:
    var myXML:XML = new XML();
    myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
    myXML.onLoad = handleLoad;
    myXML.load('
    http://localhost/test/euro.php');
    function handleLoad(success) {
    if (success) {
    var theRoot:XMLNode = this.firstChild;
    myText.text = theRoot.firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
    } else {
    myText.text = 'Not working :(';
    Handling XML in ActionScript 2.0 is like poking needles in
    your eyes,
    but it's the only way I have been able to get the euro symbol
    from an
    external source into a Flash movie.

  • Special character display issue

    Hi,
    I've been struggling with this issue for some time now and
    have not yet found a solution. Basically I am trying to display the
    letter 'á' in bold within a dynamic text field, where the text
    is parsed from some internal script.
    There is nothing wrong with the script as it works for other
    special characters. I have embedded the correct glyphs, and even
    tried all glyphs.
    I have tried several methods of encoding the character in the
    scipt such as Unicode Escape, Numeric Entity and URL encoding; no
    luck with either. For other special characters I have simply
    embedded the glyph and typed the special character into my script
    using the charmap instructions and they have worked fine but for
    some reason when I want to make it bold it just wont display. The
    method I've used to embolden the text is show below, please note
    this has worked fine for other characters and the bold version of
    the font contains the glyph in the charmap.
    "<font face=\"AvantGarde LT
    Bold\">Lávese</font>"
    This results in: Lvese (in bold) skipping the á
    I'm starting to wonder if this is a problem with the software
    itself. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to give them a go.
    Thanks in advance for any assistance
    P.S. my e-mail is [email protected]

    Pl identify which exact version of 10g, along with the database characterset.
    Going by what you have stated, your database characterset is most likely WE8ISO8859P1, which does not recognize the single quote (or apostrophe) or the bullet point.
    You will need to use a characterset that supports these characters - Oracle recommends AL32UTF8
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/ch6unicode.htm
    If you can recreate this database, use AL32UTF8 then perform your conversion.

  • SM Special Character Displays as Bullet

    Hello,
    I'm using a form in Acrobat Standard 7.0 - OSX.
    When using the special character SM (Service Mark in superscript) it displays as a bullet. The TM which is also a superscript works fine.
    Can you think of any reason why?
    Thanks

    For the record there was a Acrobat Standard for Mac.
    When acrobat 6 came out, there was a standard and pro. But the standard version did nothing more than Mac's own PDF creation capability. Ther were such howls of Protest that when Acrobat 7 came out, there was no longer a  standard version. Please check you acrobat history. Standard for Mac could even create forms. then only thing it could do was create pdf's
    and also the was a standard and pro version of 5 also. The proversion had the print press capabilities built in. the standard version had the ability to create forms.  And I think 5.05a was the best version ever put out. You could even create PDF E-Books.

  • Special character in interactive report using filter

    Hi,
    I created an interactive report and in this report there is a filter to search any row from specific value linked to a specific column.
    As example this report displays a board with some columns like "SR number", "Status", "Description", ....
    If I use this filter with standard character all works fine :
    - in the filter's list of values I choose "Region" column
    - in the search field I put "SE"
    - click on go and the board is generated with all correct rows.
    If I use this filter with special character (french character in my case), this filter changes this special character and the request doesn't return any row.
    Example :
    - in the filter's list of values I choose "Statut" column
    - in the search field I put "Réception"
    - the filter's expression is modified from "Réception" to "Réception" so no row is returned (filter - Statut contains 'Réception' - no data found)
    I modified the character set used by the apex DAD changing the nls_lang parameter in the wdbsvr.app file from AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1 (database character set) to AMERICAN_AMERICA.AL32UTF8
    But when I check the apex DAD character set after the web server restart (about Application Express in my workspace) I get :
    NLS_CHARACTERSET: WE8ISO8859P1
    DAD CHARACTERSET: ISO-8859-1
    No change.
    I used the Application Express 3.2.0.00.27 with Oracle E-business Suite (11.5.10.2).
    Any help will be appreciated.

    But I already installed french language on apex.
    Unfortunately issue occurs yet.
    To install the french language I followed these steps :
    - I set the NLS_LANG to American_America.AL32UTF8
    - sqlplus sys/**** as sysdba
    - ALTER SESSION SET CURRENT_SCHEMA = APEX_030200;
    - and I executed the load_fr.sql script

  • Problem with special character in Unix file

    Hi All,
    Need a help here. We have unicoded our system recently.
    It's regarding a special character (umlaut) that comes through a 3rd party system to an Unix file. This gets displayed in AL11 file as # instead of ö.
    As our program picks the file from Unix, it also has the # but we want ö.
    We could have done some fixes in our code to fix if AL11 file at least had ö and we got # in our program.
    But it's the other way round. So, how can we get rid of this issue? Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Sanj.

    How Al11 is reading file ? Look for
    OPEN DATASET "yourfilename" IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT FOR INPUT
                                  IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS.
    If the above code is there .. you might need to play with different 'OPEN DATASET " options .
    Also look for Note 1174468 - Non-7bit-ASCII characters used in ABAP Workbench
                       Note 1227961 - Names of text fields with non-7-bit ASCII characters
