Convert SAPScript text linse to normal stream text format

Hi Gurus.
We have a custom popup FM that displays text lines from a file provided by SAPScript text format.. (after u2018call function u2018READ_TEXTu2019).
However, for example, the Tab indent markers in this text u2013 represented by two commas u2018,,u2019 are printing  instead of spaces representing the indent in our popup.
We are searching a FM that takes the SAPScript text format and converts it to plain text format (before our Z_popup is called) where the Tab markers are replaced by spaces (in our case this is four spaces for each Tab mark).
We have already tried FMu2019s: CONVERT_text; CONVERT_ITF_TO_STREAM_TEXT; CONVERT_ITF_TO_STREAM_TEXT. But none of them seem to fulfill the requirements stated above.
Can anyone please advice?

Hi Arnie,
Instead of searching for FM you can manually code which is flexible.
"after gettting text from READ_TEXT in lt_tline.
Data: lt_string type table of string,
         lv_string type string.
CONSTANTS: c_par  TYPE char2 VALUE ',,'. " Sign for tabs
  LOOP AT  lt_tline INTO  wa_tline.
       CONCATENATE lv_string  wa_tline-tdline INTO lv_string SEPARATED BY ' '.
       REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF c_par   IN lv_string WITH ' '.
        Append lv_string to lt_string.  "if needed in string table
  ENDLOOP.

Kiruba

  • Mail.app - Moving email with attachment to a subfolder causes the email to convert to text format and lose the attachment

    I am Lion on Mac Book pro.
    When I move a mail with attachement to a folder, sometimes, it loses its mime-type and becomes a text formatted message. Hence the contents of the attachments are added as text to the mail and I cannot download the attachments then.
    This does not happen always, but almost 3/10 times.
    Thanks.

    What type of mail account is this (POP, IMAP, .Mac)? If IMAP or .Mac, what are your Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors > Drafts settings?
    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Turn OFF all the port configurations except the one needed to connect to Internet and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
    Open Keychain Access > Keychain First Aid and verify/repair the keychain.
    Try also turning OFF the Search For Certificates options in Keychain Access > Preferences if any of them is ON — take a look at the following articles for more information on this particular issue:

  • Why convert HTML to sapscript text

    Hello,
    I have a view that contains a "FormattedTextEdit" I would like to save the text that the user entered. For this I used the function module "READ_TEXT" and methods "CREATE_FROM_SAPSCRIPT".
    My problem is converting a text "HTML" to "SAPscript".
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi,
    You cannot convert HTML to sapscript/smart form. But you can convert sap script/smart form to HTML form using CL_WD_FORMATTED_TEXT class.
    There is no such provision given by SAP to convert HTML to other formats.

  • SSRS report - A single selection dropdown list converted to text box

    Hello everyone,
    We created a single selection dropdown parameter (City parameter) on a report. The data in this parameter is populated using MDX query. Also, it is filtered based on selection of another single selection dropdown list (Country parameter) of a report.
    The problem is when there is no cities for the selected country the dropdown list is gets converted to free type text box and user can insert city data in it. Why SSRS is not keeping it as empty dropdown list with no data?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hello Charlie,
    We developed a fresh report only with two parameters but still the dropdown control gets converted to text box in our case. We have two single selection parameters, Location and Customers. Based on selected Location the customer
    dropdown gets populated.
    Location Parameter Query
    WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS [Location].[Location Name].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS [Location].[Location Name].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME MEMBER
    [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [Location].[Location Name].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
    SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS , [Location].[Location Name].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS FROM [Model]
    Customer Query
    WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS
    [Customer].[Customer Name].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION
    MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS
    [Customer].[Customer Name].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME
    MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [Customer].[Customer Name].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
    SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel],[Measures].[Amt]} ON COLUMNS,
    nonempty([Customer].[Customer Name].ALLMEMBERS,[Measures].[Amt]) ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@LocationName, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Model])
    Regarding parameter settings on General tab for both the above parameters we did not select any of the following values, all these checkboxes are empty:
    Allow Blank Value ("") , Allow null value, Allow multiple values.
    I think it has something related to [Measures].[Amt] that we used in customer parameter. We are now trying to take other two parameters where we would be not using the [Measures].[Amt] to filter the data. Will update you soon.

  • Converting a text file into a String

    I need to convert a text file (in whatever format, in my case it would be xml and xsl files) in a String.
    I made this methods:
    public static String createStringFromFile(File f) {
            StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
            try {
                FileInputStream fInp = new FileInputStream(f);
                byte[] byteArray = new byte[fInp.available()];
                int bLetti = fInp.read(byteArray);  
                if (bLetti == fInp.available()) {
                    for (int i=0; i<fInp.available(); i++)
                        buf.append(Byte.toString(byteArray));
    else
    throw (new IOException("Errore nella lettura del file"));
    fInp.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    ErrorManager.getError(e);
    return (buf.toString());
    public static String createStringFromFile(String fileName) {
    StringBuffer buf = new StringBuffer();
    try {
    FileInputStream fInp = new FileInputStream(fileName);
    byte[] byteArray = new byte[fInp.available()];
    int bLetti = fInp.read(byteArray);
    if (bLetti == fInp.available()) {
    for (int i=0; i<fInp.available(); i++)
    buf.append(Byte.toString(byteArray[i]));
    else
    throw (new IOException("Errore nella lettura del file"));
    fInp.close();
    } catch (Exception e) {
    ErrorManager.getError(e);
    return (buf.toString());
    There are no compilation or runtime errors, but the result string is empty. Not null, empty. What should I do? :)

    Do you really want to use bytes and so on when java does it all for you?
    Here's how I did it, hope it's useful.
    public String getFileAsString(String fileName){
         StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
         try{
         BufferedReader bRead = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(new File(fileName)));
         String str = "";
         while( (str = bRead.readLine()) != null ){
              buffer.append(str);
         }//end while
         bRead.close();
         }catch(Exception e){
         System.err.println("in getFileAsString(): " + e.toString());
         }//end try
         return buffer.toString();
    }//end getAsString()

  • Convert mm/dd/yyyy text format to date format

    I imported a csv file and the date column is in text format.  How do I convert it from m/d/yyyy text format to yyyy-mm-dd DATE format in Numbers v 3.1?
    Thanks for any help you can give!

    UPDATE: I found that your formula didnt produce the correct result
    It changed mm/dd/yyyy to yyyy/dd/mm — rather than the desired yyyy/mm/dd
    By hacking at it, I found that changing the D column formulas around fixed this.
    Your original function:
    D2=RIGHT(A2,4)&"-"&MID(A2, B2+1, C2−B2−1)&"-"&LEFT(A2,B2−1)
    Changed:
    D2 =RIGHT(A2,4)&"-"&LEFT(A2,B2−1)&"-"&+MID(A2, B2+1, C2−B2−1)

    2) to be able to set the font size of the destination file ( destFilename)
    Am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Type Library
    Kindly Help.
    Thanks in advance

    We didn't say it doesn't work. We said it isn't supported.
    There are a number of other ways to make a PDF. The one which would
    give the most control is if your application directly printed to GDI,
    controlling the font directly. This could print to Adobe PDF.
    You could look for an application that gives control of font for
    printing.
    You could use a text-to-PostScript system and distill the result. You
    could even look for a non-Adobe text-to-PDF.
    Working in the unsupported and dangerous world you chose, the font
    size for text conversion is set (and this is very bad design from
    Adobe) in the settings for Create PDF > From Web Page. There is no API
    to this.

  • About converting a text member to a list

    Hi there everyone!
    I'm trying to convert a prepared text member to a property
    list.
    the text cast member:
    [#boxes:[#b0: [#rect: rect(61, 392, 695,
    465)],#b1:[#rect:rect(501,358,688,460)],#b3:[#rect:rect(99,415,199,493)]],#points:[#p0:[# loc:point(677,428)],#p1:[#loc:point(92,397)]]
    the code I tried:
    a = member("walkable").text
    dWalkable = value(a)
    put dWalkable
    but the result is always : <VOID>
    how can I convert the text cast member to a property list?

    The reason you are getting void is because after converting
    it from a
    string, what you have left is not a properly formatted list.
    I think
    you just need to add a closing square bracket at the end and
    then it
    should work.

  • How to convert the text field into currency field

    Hi,
    I have an requirement to converting the text field into currency.
    If I convert directly it gives dump.
    If I convert this to Numeric means it takes the decimals also as whole value.
    Is there any FM to convert the text field into Currency field.
    Please advice me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I am on an SRM sytem, which unfortunately does not have th FM: PSSV_TEXT_INTO_FIELD_CURRENCY.
    But I also need to transfer a string value like '12,99' to a field with type curr.
    Can i Do that manually, or is there another FM?
    I have already checked code with write to or pack/unpack.
    But without success yet.
    Something like this:
    DATA: g_str(11) type c.
    DATA: g_p type p.
    WRITE '12,99' TO g_str CURRENCY 'EUR'.
    is no use for me. Finally I need to move g_str to my curr-field, which causes st22.
    also: PACK g_str to <curr-field or g_p> dumps.
    Help appreciated.
