Adding ALT255 to RSKC?

Question

Dear Friends,
I need to add space as a permitted character in RSKC and somebody in this forum suggested to add ALT+255 in RSKC. How do i do this?
Do i
1. Go to tcode. RSKC and press "ALT" on the key pad and 255 at the same time and execute it or
2. Go to RSKC and type "ALT255" or "ALT+255" in it and execute it.
Please suggest?
Thanks

Hi Raj,
I won’t recommend you to include weird chars in RSKC using ALT keys. You should rather replace all these kinds for chars with spaces.
Here is the transfer routine you can use for you field in transfer structure. This routine concatenate the sap allowed and user allowed chars(from RSKC) see if the char is not there it replace that with space.
I think this should work for you. Just replace –ZZZ with you transfer structure field.
DATA: L_USER_ALLOWED_CHAR TYPE RSALLOWEDCHAR,
        L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR(140) TYPE C,
        L_RESULT_STR_LEN TYPE I,
        L_STR_INCREMENT  TYPE I.
  CONSTANTS  C_SAP_ALLOWED_CHAR(58) TYPE C VALUE
    ' !"%&''()*+,-./:;<=>?_0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'.
  IF L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR IS INITIAL.
    SELECT SINGLE * FROM RSALLOWEDCHAR
              INTO L_USER_ALLOWED_CHAR
              WHERE ALLOWKEY = 'S'.
    CONCATENATE C_SAP_ALLOWED_CHAR
                L_USER_ALLOWED_CHAR-ALLOWCHAR
                INTO L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR.
  ENDIF.
  RESULT = TRAN_STRUCTURE-ZZZ.
  TRANSLATE RESULT TO UPPER CASE.
  L_RESULT_STR_LEN = STRLEN( RESULT ).
  L_STR_INCREMENT = 0.
  WHILE L_STR_INCREMENT <> L_RESULT_STR_LEN.
    IF NOT RESULT+L_STR_INCREMENT(1) CO L_ALL_ALLOWED_CHAR.
      RESULT+L_STR_INCREMENT(1) = ' '.
    ENDIF.
    ADD 1 TO L_STR_INCREMENT.
  ENDWHILE.
Thanks
