Decimal to ASCII conversion

[Former Member]

Hello,

Does anyone know whether these is a function module to convert between decimal and ascii representations of characters?

For example, the letter 'A' is '65' in decimal representation.

What I want to ba able to do is convert the '65' back to an 'A' within my code.

Thanks,

report  zars no standard page heading
        line-size 170
        line-count 65(4).

data: content    type string ,
      xcontent   type xstring.

xcontent = '61'.
data: conv   type ref to cl_abap_conv_in_ce.
conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create( input = xcontent ).
conv->read( importing data = content ).

Here content contains the value "a"

Hello,

Thank-you for your answer. It did answer my question but I have been looking into this a little more and have a further question for you.

I have just been looking at the ASCII Character set and it shows 'A' = 65 (rather than 61) and it is this conversion that I am really looking for.

I guess the method you have given me does some kind of conversion between hexadecimal representation and alphanumeric representation but what I am looking for I think is a conversion between decimal representation and alphanumeric notation.

Is there another method which provides this?

I have looked at the other methods on class cl_abap_conv_in_ce but I don't think any of them do what I need to do.

If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

Thanks,
