Counting the Field characters.

Hi Experts,
Can you tell me how to count the field character.Suppose i want to maintain the equipment description then how can i know how many characters it will accept.i know i can count by putting the character but can you tell me the way such that system should tell.
There is someway like press F1 and so on.
AR

Hi Amit,
The equipment discription is stored in table ITOB field SHTXT.
use tcode SE11. give input as ITOB and go to line having field SHTXT. There you will be able to see character length.

Dynamically count the field

I have a scenario where the target field of one idoc segment should get populated ie. field should count how many other different segments are generated in the target.for example
segment A comes to 2 times then say field of segment C should be 2 in the target

You can use the following UDF's for increment and initialisation of the counter
Increment the Global Variable Counter
public String incrementCounter(String a,Container container){
//write your code here
if(a.equals(" "))
Object o = container.getGlobalContainer().getParameter("CNTR");
Integer ii;
if( o == null ) ii = new Integer(0);
else ii = (Integer)o;
ii = new Integer( ii.intValue() + 1);
container.getGlobalContainer().setParameter("CNTR", ii);
String temp = ii.toString();
return temp;
else return " ";
Intialise the Counter
Object o = container.getGlobalContainer().getParameter("CNTR");
Integer ii = new Integer(0);;
container.getGlobalContainer().setParameter("CNTR", ii);
return "1";

Setting a reverse counter of the # of characters as form is being filled.

Hi,
This question maybe a little strange.
I was wondering, if it's possible to have a <counter> that counts the # of characters as it<s being typed into the field that I'll create in a form using Acrobat Pro.
I've seen this function before, but in other forms, where if the the field is limited (to example: 100 characters), then, whatever I input into the field, will be shown in a <same-time> fashion... so if I were to type in: ABC (I'd have 97 characters left within that field).
Is this a field that could be created? or maybe a function that wouldn't require a script?

HI GKaiseril:
I'm really not good with scripts and those I've encountered so far were basic.
Is what you have above the actual script? Or, it's a description of the script?
Can you explain the script?
If it's too complex, could you suggest another way that doesn't require a script ? Or, a simplier script (if that exists?)
The reason why I wanted a 'count-down' character meter, is because I will have a text field with lots of words/text. In order to limit that entry (since it'd be exported into .xls format) and that has a limit of about 1,000 visible characters, I want to set a limit of 900 characters within that 1 field. As a reminder for those entering the info.
If you think there is another simpler way to remind end-users, please do share.
Thanks,

How to COUNT all data Characters in an IDOC ?

Hi All,
I am doing an IDOC-->File scenario.
As per the Third party system requirements, I need to COUNT all the Data characters (Minus the EDIDC record) and write this value at the end of the trailer record in the file.
Example:
EDIDC--> SAPR3, LS...
E1KNA1M-->SHIRIN, UK, SW1DPL
E1KNBKM-->SHIRIN, CITIBANK
So in this example I should sum up(COUNT) all the characters(of Data) belonging to segment E1KNA1m and E1KNBKM. So here COUNT is '28'. So I need to write the value '28' at the end of the file.
I want to know, is it possible to count data in XI mapping or should this be done in R/3 itself and appended as a COUNT field to the IDOC.
Appreciate any suggestion help on this. All I want to know which is the best practise/place to count the data characters in this scenario.
Thanks
Shirin

Hi,
Thanks for explaining.Really appreciated.
Just to confirm,
in Java edit Section I have added the following data: Please let me know if that is correct.
Imports:
Global Variables: len
Initilisation section: 0
Clean-up:
Similarly in UDF I have entered the following data:
Label/Description: Calculate length
Cache: Value(radiobutton)
Arguments: a
Next screen:
Imports:
public String Calculate(String a, Container container)
Then entered ur code.
When I save and activate I get the following error
Starting compilation Source code has syntax error: D:/usr/sap/XRD/DVEBMGS02/j2ee/cluster/server0/./temp/classpath_resolver/Map2494b0c0596b11dda115001a4b52813a/source/com/sap/xi/tf/_MM_ALLOCATION_RESPONSE_.java:32: <identifier> expected public /*!_$ClNRep_*/_MM_ALLOCATION_RESPONSE_(){} ^ D:/usr/sap/XRD/DVEBMGS02/j2ee/cluster/server0/./temp/classpath_resolver/Map2494b0c0596b11dda115001a4b52813a/source/com/sap/xi/tf/_MM_ALLOCATION_RESPONSE_.java:210: ';' expected } ^ 2 errors

Hi Radhika,
To change bank key length, follow below path.
1. Go to table V_005_B and select your country and then click on overview. Change digit what ever you want as per country requirement.

Counting the number of characters entered into a page item

Is there a way to count the number of characters that are entered into a page item. I've got a field that can contain up to 20 characters. If 20 are entered I can do a = on my search, if less than that, then I have to do a wildcard search. I currently do a substr on the field to see if position 21 is null and position 20 is not null, then I have a 20 character field. Is there a more efficient way to do this and also is there a way to actually show the character count as the page item is being populated

Hello user8014695 (name please),
Try coding the select for your search as
select ...
from some_table
where some_field like case when length(trim(:YOUR_ITEM)) = 20 then :YOUR_ITEM else :YOUR_ITEM || '%' end
Note - I included the trim() assuming blank characters before or after shouldn't count.
To show the character count as the item is being keyed-in, Google "javascript character count" for lots of ways to do this. To work these solutions into ApEx, check the ApEx help/documentation for incorporating JavaScript into your application - specifically the references on accessing page items using JavaScript.
Hope this helps,
John

Count number of Characters in CLOB field

Hi all,
I posted this on another database, but I think it really belongs here. I have a CLOB field that stores reports in HTML markup languate. Here's an example of a report.
 </title> </head> <body contenteditable="true" text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff"> this is a test for a bilateral modifier </body> </html> 
I'm trying to provide a query that counts the number of characters that is not a HTML tag nor whitespace. I've attempted to use a combination of the length and replace function which first replace all HTML tags and whitespaces with nothing and then uses length to calculate the number of characters. Here's what the function looks like.
 length(trim (both ' ' from replace (replace (replace(replace (replace(replace(replace(replace (replace(replace(replace (replace(replace (replace(reports.report_text ,'</head>',''),'</title>',''),'<body contenteditable="true" text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff">',''),'</body>',''),'</html>',''),'',''),'',''),'',''),'',''),'',''),'',''),'',''),'',''),'>','')))
 
For the example above, the number of characters counted in the outputs is 66, which is clearly incorrect. I need to only count these characters for the example above "thisisatestforabilateralmodifier", but there is still white space that remains after I do the sequence of replaces. If someone can help, it's be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

If you can convert your html string to valid xml you can do the following:
michaels> SELECT str, LENGTH(REPLACE(REPLACE(XMLTYPE (str).EXTRACT ('//text()').getclobval(),CHR(10)),' ')) length
FROM (SELECT
'<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body contenteditable="true" text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff">
 this is a test for a bilateral modifier
</body>
</html>' str FROM DUAL)
STR LENGTH
<html> 32
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body contenteditable="true" text="#000000" bgcolor="#ffffff">
 this is a test for a bilateral modifier
</body>
</html> Otherwise regex_replace would be an alternative (on 10g).

Hi Guys,
1) Can anybody tell me which table contains the field CNTRC (short description is Counter Reading) ?
2) CNTRC is available in the structure RIMR0. In a situation like this, how do we identify the table name?
Thanks in Advance,

Dear Vijay
The counter reading is available in IMRG table in field CNTRR. It is available in exponential form. you need to convert to decimal from using the FM FLTP_CHAR_CONVERSION_FROM_SI

the problem that I have in the routine, is that, he/she repeats the last bill alternative to all the positions of the cost classes.
the routine is the following one:
clear CS_RECORD-ZZ_LOKKT.

Make the back of the car a 3D layer. Add a camera. Animate the camera so the motiion looks right.
Another option, track something in the frame that is in the same plane as the back of the car. Track scale. Apply the tracked scale information to the back of the car layer.
A better way to get better suggestions. Post a screenshot of the video or better yet, upload the video to You-tube and let us see what you are trying to do.

How do you count the multiple columns of a field in a table
Whenever you have a problem, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables involved, and also post the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g., 11.2.0.2.0).
See the forum FAQ: https://forums.oracle.com/message/9362002
"Field" isn't a standard database term. Some people say "field" when they mean "column", but I don't think that's what you mean ("How do you count the multiple columns of a column .."). Do you want to know how many times a column is used (as opposed to NULL), or the number of different values in a column? You really need to show what you want.

How to count the number of characters

Dear All,
Can anyone tell me a Function Code or sample code to count the number of charactes in a text.
Regards,
Vijay

hi
use the inbuilt function strlen
Number of characters in arg; blanks at the end of data objects with a fixed length are not counted, although they are counted in type string data objects. If you use a non-Unicode double-byte code, a character that occupies 2 bytes is counted twice.
example
data: v_len type i,
v_str type string value 'gggugik'.
v_len = strlen( v_str ).
write:/ v_len.
