How to count number of characters in a string?

Hi
I need to display values in a script. but the alignment getting distrubed if it is less than 20 charaters, for exmple material descirption is only displaying 20 characters in script. if it is less than 20 charcters the alignment getting changed.
please help me ...urgent..
thanks in advance...

solution to this problem in script is not to count the characters but to align them based on positions .
1.
Use the tab positions for that paragraph format to display the values in a finite format .
In this u need to give the position start and position end length and use the same in the script as
p ,,&itab-f1&
say my value has to print from position 125mm to 155 mm
i take one tab position for this paragraph format P and maintain the same in the output.
here ,, is the tab position .
See whether it is one character or 20 character it has to behave the same way it should not be misaligned .
check the tab position for that paragraph format in Tabs ..
regards,
vijay.

public class Stringcheck
public static int maxStringLength;
public static double minSize;
public static boolean testStringLength(String x)
// Insert method for counting number of chars in String x and name as 'int numberOfChars
if(number of Chars <= maxStringLength )
return true;
else

ummm, you dont need anything fancy. try:
String test = "this is the test string";
int length = test.length();

How to count number of words in a string?

Is it only possible by counting the number of white spaces appearing in the string?

Of course that also depends upon how accurate you need to be and what the string contains. It is completely possible that there might be a line break which doesn't have a trailing or leading space.
Like that.
In that case Flash's representation of the string is likely "...space.\n\nLike that.." In chich case "space.\n\nLike" will be a word.
Also if you split on space and there are places where there are two spaces in a row you could inflate your number. So somthing that changes newlines (and returns) to spaces, then removes any multiple spaces in a row, and finally does the split/count thing would be more accurate.
But it all depends upon what you need.

Is there a way to count the number of "-" in the strings below:
For instance:

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,

How to Count Number of completed line items in past 6 months / 12 months ?

How to Count Number of completed line items in past 6 months / 12 months ?
Hi,
I am trying to count "Number of Completed Line Items in Purchase Order Document" for my Key Figure ZPO_CNT.
Purchase Order document = ZEBELN
Line Item = ZEBELP.
I need to find and count if the Line Item has been received in the past 6 months from today and similarly in the past 12 months.
I have "Delivery Completed" field, ELIKZ.
So, based on this would I be able to calculate it in Query Designer?
If so, Please let me know how

Hello Deva
If youe want to calculate the completed line item for last 6 or 12 month then i think u will be displaying the query data for these montrhs...create a customer exit to give you date range and restric it in filter area....
Now Choose any of the below option
1. I would suggest to implement an additional key figure "counter" in cube and fill values with one for which delivery is completed.
Now use calculated key figure in Query Designer based on logic
IF counter = 1 THEN counter ELSE 0
OR
2. create a formula variable based on ELIKZ and use replacement path variable, it will display you no. of docs for which delivery is completed....
Award points if it solves your problem
Revert back in case of further assistance...
Thanks

How to count number of ones in table

Hello,
i created one table 16x32 each cell is updating 1 byte of data,how to count number of one in all cell,and is it right way to calculate check sum??
thank you

The simplest way is to call GetTableCellRangeValues with VAL_ENTIRE_TABLE as the range, next summing array elements.
But I don't understand your comment on checksum, so this may not be the more correct method for your actual needs: can you explain what do you mean?

How to count number of rows in table

can I get number of row in table except Count(*) in pl/sql
is there any other way

Also posted and answered here
how to count number of rows in table
count(*) will be the fastest way. It is only slow if the table has a vast number of rows, in which case why do you need to know the tables has 73552436467721 rows and not 73552436467737 rows. It doesn't seem to be much use. Either that or you are counting them a lot, which again seems rather pointless.

Hi Experts,
I dont have a defined Restricted key figure yet.
I have populated 0COMPL_DEL(Delivery Completed Indicator) and 0EBELN (Purchasing Document Number) and 0EBELP (Line Item Number in Purchasing Document) .
This is what I think how I need to calculate:
Number of completed line items in past 6 months:
If Delilvery Completed Indicator (0COMPL_DEL) = x, calculate No. of Line Items (ZPO_CNT) from 0CALDAY to 6 months
and
Number of completed line items in past 12 months:
If Delilvery Completed Indicator (0COMPL_DEL) = x, calculate No. of Line Items (ZPO_CNT) from 0CALDAY to 12 months
Please let me know if the logic is correct. If so, how I can create this in report

Number of characters in a string

Hi,
I need to find the number of characters in a string. For instance, i have a string type variable with the value "ABAP". How can i know how many letters "A" there are in that string? Is there any FM that does this?
Cheers,

Hi,
you can make use of string operation FIND as:
DATA: text1 TYPE string VALUE `A`,
         text TYPE string,
      off TYPE i,
      moff TYPE i,
      mlen TYPE i.
off = 0.
WHILE sy-subrc = 0.
FIND text1 IN SECTION OFFSET off OF
       `ABAP`
       MATCH OFFSET moff
       MATCH LENGTH mlen.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    WRITE / moff.
    off = moff + mlen.
ENDIF.
ENDWHILE.

Hi Srinu
You could achieve this by configuring error messages under the formula:-
Select the control properties and in the Input field at the Display tab write the formula
"IF((@<LEN(text)>10),'appropriate message','Records available')"
Note :- there is a LEN(text) under text functions in formula tab.
