if it is dats u can do a move char_variable to dats_variable.

Converting CHAR type to other data types

Dear SDN users,
would any of you know how to convert a CHAR data type to other data types for example hexadecimal etc., and convert them back? I suspect there must be some standard FMs available.
Thankyou for your responses.

Smitha

Hello smitha ,
I suppose you are assigning some variable of char type to a variable of integer type it will automaticaly (implicitly ) convert the type .
in some case we need to change the type explicitly like the above mentiioned .
Thanks and regards ..

Convert char to ascii code and vice versa

HI
Is there any function module to convert char to ascii code and vice versa.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
be careful if you have unicode running in your system. URL_ASCII_CODE_GET is platform-dependent so it will return the internal HERX representation of the character in your system - which is hopefully and in most cases ASCII.
Under unicode, we use double-byte characters here. I tried this function and the result CHAR_CODE is '00' regardless what character I specify for TRANS_CHAR. But the coding is so simple I corrected resultig in this sample code:
[P]
convert p_form to ASCII (internal) representation
DATA:
    l_ofs TYPE syfdpos,
    l_len TYPE sy-linsz,
    l_ascii TYPE i.
FIELD-SYMBOLS:
    <x> TYPE x.
l_len = STRLEN( p_ascii ).
DO l_len TIMES.
    l_ofs = sy-index - 1.
    ASSIGN p_ascii+l_ofs(1) TO <x> CASTING.
    l_ascii = <x>.
    WRITE: l_ascii.
ENDDO.
[/P]
Here, for each character of string p_ascii, the internal (ASCII) representation is determined and written to the output list.

Clemens

Convert char to dec

Dear all ,
    I have to convert char to dec , my requirement is to covert 12344434 to 123444.34 .

You can try like this.
DATA : v_tot_len TYPE i,
        v_off_len TYPE i.
DATA : v_off_text(50) TYPE c,
        v_dec_text(2) TYPE c,
        v_fin_text(50) TYPE c.
PARAMETERS : p_input TYPE text20 OBLIGATORY.
START-OF-SELECTION.
v_tot_len = STRLEN( p_input ).
v_off_len = v_tot_len - 2.
v_off_text = p_input+0(v_off_len).
v_dec_text = p_input+v_off_len(2).
CONCATENATE v_off_text v_dec_text INTO v_fin_text SEPARATED BY '.'.
Here I am inputting the text to be converted.

How to convert char to curr ?

Hi gurus.
Forgive me for the silly question.
I have a problem with data conversion from char to curr with 2 decimal places.
This is the scenario, I have a Z transaction which receives an excel file containing data from invoices and when the field contains a value such as 35,0 the program records the value 3.50 in the destination variable. But when the value is 35,45, it works.
Here is the piece of code:
WHEN '0007 '.
        TRANSLATE USING ITAB-VALUE. " '.
        ITAB-VALUE USING TRANSLATE',.'.
        CONDENSE ITAB-VALUE NO-GAPS.
        WA_OPER_MENORES-VL_BRUTO = ITAB-VALUE.
If I format the column in the excel file for numeric value with 2 decimal places also works, because when the value is formatted 35,0 change to 35,00. But I can not tell all the users hey formatt your files before upload to SAP.
To test I generate a simple report that reads the excel file and makes the conversion of the columns, like the code above, so I had no problems. I think there should be some configuration that has been changed in the transaction, but I'm new in ABAP, I come from "Java World" and I have no idea that could be.
I could just use a quick and dirty solution, adding a zero at the end of the column, when there is the 2 decimal places, but I prefer a clean solution.
Guys, is there any function module or class that does that kind of data conversion? If not, you could tell me what is the best practice to solve this problem?
thank you very much,
Ronaldo S. Vieira

How to convert char(1) to int32 datatype in pl/sql

Hello,
I am trying to convert char(1) to an integer data type to be put into an int32 variable in C#. I tried several options such as TO_NUMBER ,CAST(.. AS INTEGER), and CAST(.. AS SMALLINT) but they all return int64.
Is there a way to ensure the casting into a datatype that is compatible with int32 ?
Thanks

Oracle's SQL Datatypes are limited to NUMBER, BINARY_FLOAT and BINARY_DOUBLE.
There's a few others through PL/SQL including BINARY_INTEGER.
If you look in USER_ARGUMENTS you can see it is defined slightly differently.
Don't know whether / how .Net infers datatypes, but it is worth a shot.
create or replace function v (p number) return binary_integer is
begin
return p;
end;

Any way to Convert CHAR(8) field to QUAN(8)?

Any way to Convert CHAR(8) field to QUAN(8)?
Thank-You.

Hi
The MOVE statament automatically converts the data format
DATA: VAR_IN(8) TYPE C,
VAR_OUT TYPE P.
MOVE VAR_IN TO VAR_OUT.
It's important your char has only number and the point as separator of decimal part.

Infoobj is changed frm Char to NUMC

Hi Gurus,
I have an infoobject which is giving data to another infoobject.
We had a requirement to change the former info object from CHAR to NUMC and removing the ALPHA conversion routine.
Everything went on well in DEV system, I transported it to Q system.
There I faced a problem. The info object is not being activated in Q system. When i saw the problem the SID table CHAR and the info object was NUMC.
I tried to delete the master data which is already there in the info object it was not being deleted. I thought that if i delete the entries of this info object in the infoobject which is getting data from this infoobject, then i tried to delete the entries in the Info object again it is not getting deleted.
Can anyone please help in this situation what I need to do???
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Rajni

Check if the IO is used in some other areas using 'Where Used List' button..

Convert char cloumn to binry

how can i convert char to binary

Can you provide a bit more context?
Are you trying to change the definition of a column in a table? Or are you trying to cast a particular value from a table into a binary value in PL/SQL?
How much data are we talking about?
Have you looked at the UTL_RAW.CAST_FROM_<<data type>> functions? Is that what you're looking for?
