About Concatenate Stmt

Dear all
We will use concatenate stmt to join more than one field and at the end we may use seperated by space if we need a space. But insted i need a Tabular space between my fields. Also this one i am using with ALV. So i cannot use write statement and all.. Is there any option to put a tabular space between variables while concatenating..
Plz help me...

Hi,
Check this code.
data : role(15) type c value 'crick,ter',
role1(10) type c,
role2(10) type c.
write: / role.
data: tab_space(4) type c value ' '.
"WITHIN THE QUOTES GIVE A TAB SPACE.
SPLIT role AT ',' INTO role1 role2.
concatenate role1 role2 into role separated by tab_space.
write: / role.
I dont think using ALV would affect in anyway.. the way you display the field.
Reward if helpful.
Regards.

CONCATENATE STMT

Hi Guys,
 can any one send me the syntax for the concatenate stmt.
something like:
concatenate lines of itab into itab1-text seperated by space. Please if posiible copy it from the SAP help and paste it here.
Its urgent please reply as soon as possible.

Hi,
Concatenate var1 var2 into var3 separated by space.
Also go through the below help
CONCATENATE
Basic form
CONCATENATE f1 ... fn INTO g.
Addition: ... SEPARATED BY h
Note
Like all string processsing statements, you can only use character-type operands here.
If the type of an operand is not STRING, the operand is treated like a type C field, regardless of its actual type, even though no actual conversion takes place.
In an ABAP Objects context, a more severe syntax check is performed that in other ABAP areas. See Only character fields allowed in string processing.
Effect
Combines the fields f1 to fn (n >= 2) and places them in g.
Note that trailing spaces in source fields with type C are ignored (since they cannot be distinguished from "padding" characters). In C strings, on the other hand, they are considered. All fields fi (1 <= i <= n) are used in the length STRLEN( fi ).
The return code is set as follows:
SY-SUBRC = 0:
The result fitted into g.
SY-SUBRC = 4:
The result was too long for g and could only be transferred in the defined length of g.
Example
DATA: ONE(10) VALUE ' John ',
 TWO(3) VALUE 'F.',
 THREE(10) VALUE ' Kennedy',
 NAME(20),
 FIRST TYPE STRING.
CONCATENATE ONE TWO THREE INTO NAME.
NAME has the value ' JohnF. Kennedy'.
But:
MOVE ONE TO FIRST. "FIRST = ' John'
SHIFT FIRST CIRCULAR. "FIRST = 'John '
CONCATENATE FIRST TWO INTO NAME.
NAME has the value 'John F.'.
Addition
... SEPARATED BY h
Effect
Inserts the separator h between the fields fi.
h is used in its defined length if it is a C string.
Examples
DATA: ONE(10) VALUE 'John',
 TWO(3) VALUE 'F.',
 THREE(10) VALUE 'Kennedy',
 NAME(20).
CONCATENATE ONE TWO THREE INTO NAME SEPARATED BY SPACE.
NAME has the value "John F. Kennedy".
DATA SEPARATOR(4) VALUE 'USA'.
CONCATENATE SPACE ONE TWO THREE INTO NAME
 SEPARATED BY SEPARATOR.
NAME has the value "USA JohnUSA F.USA Ke".
The return code SY-SUBRC has the value 4.
Note
Performance:
You should use CONCATENATE instead of writing your own routines, since it is safer, quicker, and easier to understand. The runtime required to concatenate two 30 byte fields is approximately 14 msn (standard microseconds).

About Read stmt

Hi Friends,
can anyone .. Explain this below READ statement.
LOOP AT it_hrp1000.
    READ TABLE it_hrp1000 WITH KEY plvar = p_plvar
                               and otype = p_otype
                               and endda = p_endda2
                               BINARY SEARCH.
MY QUESTION IS,
WHY WE ARE USING THE ABOVE READ STMT WITH CONDITIONS IN PRG.. I MEAN WHICH WHICH SCENARIO..(SITUATION).
PLS.EXPLAIN ANY ONE.

Read statement is basically used to capture one particular record instead of looping over the whole table. With the read statment you can just get one particular row of the table , put it in a work area and process it as per your requirement.
please go through the following links to understand the fucntionality of read statement and how can we read lines of tables;

Account number in Standard text in SapScripts

Hello,
I've created a standard text where I've to print account number as 12--1234-1234567-123.
But REGUH-ZBNKL prints the bank number as 123456
Where 1st 2 digits (12) is bank number and 2nd 4 digits (3456) is branch number.
REGUH-ZBNKN displays the account number as 789012343
Where 1st 7 digits (7890123) is account no and last 2 digit (43) is suffix no.
How do I format these two numbers into one as 12-3456-7890123-043
That means if the suffix is 2 digit add a '0' in front of the suffix to make it 3 digit (i.e. 034)

Hi,
You can use a concatenate stmt to prefix '0'.
for eg:
 if ws_int < '99'.
 concatenate '0' ws_int into ws_int.
endif.
similarly you can use concatenate statement to build your string.
concatenate reguh-zbnkl0(2) reguh-zbnkl2(4)
 reguh-zbnkn+0(7) reguh-zbnkn ws_int separated by '-'
into ws_account.

Redarding Native SQL

Dear All,
     I am using one function module to get the details of Table Size History. In that i found select statement like this.
if schema is initial.
    concatenate 'select' tbst_columns 'from sap_tf_tabhist' into
       stmt separated by space.                             "#EC NOTEXT
else.
    concatenate 'select' tbst_columns 'from'
         schema into stmt separated by space.               "#EC NOTEXT
    concatenate stmt '.sap_tf_tabhist' into stmt.           "#EC NOTEXT
endif.
concatenate stmt '(''' tabname ''',''' curr_schema ''')' into stmt.
* Select the info
try.
    res_ref = stmt_ref->execute_query( stmt ).
    get reference of out_data into itable_ref.
    res_ref->set_param_table( itable_ref ).
    res_ref->next_package( ).
    res_ref->close( ).
    catch_std_db_error.
endtry.
In this select stmt they have used " sap_tf_tabhist " table to get the details of table history ..But i didn't find any table in SE11.
I want to know what is this "sap_tf_tabhist" stands?
If it is a table in MY SQL then how to see that table?

It does not make sense to write native SQL statement for a SAP table. That's why you have that code to access the MS SQL table. You should better check with system administrator for that table.

Hi Yusuf,
first u have to get the PRODH from MARA for a give table then u have to get the text of PRODH frm T179T.
sample logic :
SELECT MARA~MATNR
 MARA~PRDHA
 FROM MARA
 INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE I_MARA
 WHERE MARA~MATNR IN S_MATNR1.
SELECT PRODH
 VTEXT
 INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE I_VTEXT
 FROM T179T
 FOR ALL ENTRIES IN I_MARA
 WHERE PRODH = I_MARA-PRDHA.
dont use Nested Select Stmts.

How to concatenate multiple records into one

Hi everybody:
I want to know if exist some way to concat multiple records into one without using cursors. For example, I have a table named "Authors" like this:
Lan|Author
English|Ernest Hemingway
Spanish|Octavio Paz
Spanish|Mario Vargas Llosa
English|Sinclair Lewis
Spanish|Gabriel García Márquez
And I want to get this:
Author
Octavio Paz, Mario Vargas Llosa, Gabriel García Márquez
I have worked with SQL Server and I can do something like this:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.MyConcat (@lan varchar(10))
RETURNS varchar(5000) AS
BEGIN
declare @retvalue varchar(5000)
set @retvalue=''
select @retvalue = @retvalue + Author +',' from Authors where lan = @lan
return substring(@retvalue,1,len(@retvalue)-1)
END
ie, do not use cursors to concatenate records. However, with ORACLE, I have to do someting like this.
FUNCTION MyConcat(P_Lan IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
v_ret VARCHAR2(4000);
v_element VARCHAR2(4000);
v_cursor sys_refcursor;
BEGIN
OPEN v_cursor FOR SELECT Author FROM Authors where Lan = P_Lan
LOOP
FETCH v_cursor INTO v_elemento;
EXIT WHEN v_cursor%NOTFOUND;
IF v_ret IS NULL THEN
v_ret := v_element;
ELSE
v_ret := v_ret || ', ' || v_element;
END IF;
END LOOP;
RETURN v_ret;
END;
Exist some other way to do this?
Best Regards
Jack

Tks both for answer... I forgot to mention that I am using Oracle 10g. I read about LISTAGG() but this function is available for Oracle 11g release 2.
I wil read about the other techniques than Hoek mention
Best Regards.

Doubt about a null value assigned to a String variable

Hi,
I have a doubt about a behavior when assigning a null value to a string variable and then seeing the output, the code is the next one:
public static void main(String[] args) {
        String total = null;
        System.out.println(total);
        total = total+"one";
        System.out.println(total);
}the doubt comes when i see the output, the output i get is this:
null
nulloneA variable with null value means it does not contains a reference to an object in memory, so the question is why the null is printed when i concatenate the total variable which has a null value with the string "one".
Is the null value converted to string ??
Please clarify
Regards and thanks!
Carlos

null is a keyword to inform compiler that the reference contain nothingNo. 'null' is not a keyword, it is a literal. Beyond that the compiler doesn't care. It has a runtime value as well.
total contains null value means it does not have memory,No, it means it refers to nothing, as opposed to referring to an object.
for representation purpose it contain "null"No. println(String) has special behaviour if the argument is null. This is documented and has already been described above. Your handwaving about 'for representation purpose' is meaningless. The compiler and the JVM don't know the purpose of the code.
e.g. this keyword shows a hash value instead of memory addressNo it doesn't: it depends entirely on the actual class of the object referred to by 'this', and specifically what its toString() method does.
similarly "total" maps null as a literal.Completely meaningless. "total" doesn't 'map' anything, it is just a literal. The behaviour you describe is a property of the string concatenation operator, not of string literals.
I hope you can understand this.Nobody could understand it. It is compete nonsense. The correct answer has already been given. Please read the thread before you contribute.

I have a question about extracting pages. When I do the function, adobe saves the individual files as "<file name><space><page number>", so the files look like this "filename 1.pdf", "filename 2.pdf", "filename 3.pdf". Without too many gory details, I am using excel to concatenate some data to dynamically build a hyperlink to these extraced files. It casues me problems, however, for the space to be the the file name. Is there any way to change the default behavoir of this function to perhaps use a dash or underscore instead of a space?

No, you can't change the default naming scheme. You can do it yourself if you extract the pages using a script instead of using the built-in command.

A question about development of livecylcle forms

Hello, I have been asked to build complex static forms for a client of ours using Livecycle Designer version 8.2. The forms are static (fixed field) forms that will not interact with users in any way. We will be populating the form fields from a .NET api so there is no need for any kind of validation handling / submit buttons etc.   In that way the forms are relatively simple.
The problem I am running into is the desired form layout is complex and I am not sure about the most productive way to produce this layout. The form a need to produce must exactly match the content of the attached file called "TheGoal.pdf".   Unfortunately this comes as some kind of read only image produced from a word template and I am unable to manipulate the layout when I import this into Livecycle designer. The client wants me to create the form from scratch so they can have full control of the layout if changes are requested in future.
To get a start on this, I went through the tutorials that come with the product just so I could understand how the forms are built. I have attached a pdf file called "MyAttempt.pdf" that shows my initial attempts with the first few fields in the desired layout ("TheGoal.pdf").
I have considered a number of approaches and, the only thing, that sort of works is draw all the boxes using rectangle objects and then dropping the required fields into the rectangles. [Note: I have tried using tables and nested tables but I appear to be limited by the fact that tables only allow me to have a fixed number of columns and that nested tables always fille the entire cell of the parent table. ]
The problem I have run into right away is I am finding my current approach very labor intensive.   Any time I want to change anything like resizing a box I have to resize all of the other boxes on the form.   As the form grows in complexity I can see the whole thing becoming a maintenance nightmare.
In short my question is this:
What is the best approach for creating complex layouts like this? As an html developer I have been used to using tables to handle complex layouts in a way that can be changed relatively easily but that approach doesn't appear to work with Adobe LiveCycle designer.
Any thoughts or insights would be very much appreciated. [Sorry about the long explanation].
Thanks in advance.

I justed wanted to say thanks for all of the help.   I think I am getting closer to an agreed approach with the client that might work.
It looks like they will be fine with me just overlaying the fields on top of the Adobe image for most of the pages just because it will take a long time to create the layout manually for each one. There is one page that is dynamic in nature because the number of table items on that page can potentially increase to any number - that part I am thinking of handling dynamically.
Basically there will be a static image for each page except the dynamic one.   When all the fields are populated I will concatenate them all together and handle the page numbers in code. [I will be using VB code with the apToolkit to handle the form data binding and concatenation of pdf images].
Its a little messy but we think this effort should be less than trying to create that complicated layout on all of the pages.
If anybody has any thoughts on that or similar experience I would very much like to hear about it. [The image file is in the original post and it is called "TheGoal.pdf". Each page on that will be broken down to an individual image and page 2 is the part I will try to handle as separate dynamic form because the items in the "Property" section can increase to any number of items]

Use of Select stmts with Update stmts

Hi,
I want to execute the following update stmt...
UPDATE Test1_tab a
SET a.invpln_seq_no = (SELECT b.seq_no
FROM Test2_tab b
WHERE b.contract_id = a.contract_id
AND b.date_from = a.period_from_date)
WHERE a.invpln_seq_no != (SELECT b.seq_no
FROM Test2_tab b
WHERE b.contract_id = a.contract_id
AND b.date_from = a.period_from_date)
Here the problem is I have used 'SELECT b.seq_no FROM Test2_tab b WHERE b.contract_id = a.contract_id AND b.date_from = a.period_from_date' twice, one in the SET clause and the other one in WHERE clause...But it is the same SELECT stmt...So this same Select stmt runs twice when I run the whole update stmt I guess. Is there a way to do the above update, where it runs the SELECT stmt only once...
Any input is highly appreciated...
Thanks And Best Regards,
/Dinesh...

Then you can use Merge statement instead.
try this
merge into test1_tab t1
using
(SELECT a.rowid,b.seq_no SEQ_DEST
FROM test1_tab a,test2_tab b
WHERE b.contract_id = a.contract_id
AND b.date_from = a.period_from_date
AND a.invpln_seq_no != b.seq_no) t2

1. Use code tags when you post code.
2. Do not mix jdbc code with GUI code. Use a class for just the jdbc code and then use that class in your GUI code.
3. Do not use the ODBC to access MS SQL Server. It has a significant problem. Get one of the java drivers.
4. Your SQL is wrong. Learn the basics of SQL before writing java code that relies on it.

Hi
I dont see any internal table in the code looping...you are executing the same values which are taken from recording..
For Example:
perform fm_set_bdc_field tables t_bdc using 'RC29N-MATNR'
'0000013107'. " this is the value given during recording
perform fm_set_bdc_field tables t_bdc using 'RC29N-MATNR'
itab-matnr. "it should be replaced like this,so the material number you want to upload will be entered in the field.
You are getting sy-subrc = 0,because it is creating with the same values again.

I would like to get only specific channels from several .csv files and concatenate into one group.

Hello,
I am working with other groups and getting the data in daily .csv files. When I use the "concatenate groups" script along with a script on importing files, I end up getting a huge file that takes about an hour to concatenate. In order to reduce the amount of time and memory that this takes, I was hoping that someone could help me modify the script so that I could just list the channel name that I am interested in and concatinating only those channels rather than all of them.
For example, if voltage, temperature, pressure and time data are taken daily for 30 days, I would like to import only the temperature and time data (from .csv format) and concatenate into one group.
I have attached the .vbs files that I use.
Thanks in advance,
Alan

Hi Alan,
Actually, the feature you're asking for is already in the code of mine that you sent back. Look on line 11 of the main VBScript: ChannelSet = "" ' "" or "1-" (DataPlugin) or "Sheet1" (EXCEL Wizard)
If this "ChannelSet" parameter is set to something other than "" or "1-" then it is used in line 78:
Call DataFileLoadSel(FilePaths(i), DataPlugin, ChannelSet)
Yo can specify the channel indices to load with an expression like this:
ChannelSet = "[1]/[1],[3]"
Let me know if you have further questions,

How to Add/Concatenate to a text field, values selected in a combo box

I have a combo box form field that allows the user to select a value from a list and click on an Add button. The Add button should add/concatenate the vaue selected to a text field in order to create a list of values selected. I'm not sure how to do this using Javascript in Acrobat? I know I need to add the javascript to the Add button's Mouse Up action. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks so much - it works!

Let's say the text field's name is "Text1", and the combo is called "Combo1". You can then use this code as the MouseUp script of the Add button:
var f1 = this.getField("Text1");
var f2 = this.getField("Combo1");
if (f1.value=="") f1.value = f2.value;
else f1.value = f1.value + ", " + f2.value;
