Dear all,

I was trying to get values in an ALV grid recently and I noticed that the values are displayed as exponential values which didn't satisfy the client very much. So after a little research I found this function module that converted the exponential format to float format.

This form takes the exponential value in V_FLOAT variable converts it to the float value in V_CHAR P10_4 variable

FORM CONVERT CHANGING V_FLOAT V_CHAR P10_4.

   IF V_FLOAT IS NOT INITIAL.

   CALL FUNCTION 'CEVA_CONVERT_FLOAT_TO_CHAR'

   EXPORTING

     FLOAT_IMP  = V_FLOAT

     FORMAT_IMP = P10_4

     ROUND_IMP  = ' '

  IMPORTING

    CHAR_EXP = V_CHAR.

  ENDIF.

ENDFORM.

DATA: V_FLOAT TYPE F , V_CHAR(25), P10_41(10) TYPE P DECIMALS 3.     "CONVERSION OF STRING TO FLOAT STRUCTURE.

V_FLOAT = VALUE_BEFORE_CONVERSION.

PERFORM CONVERT CHANGING V_FLOAT V_CHAR P10_41.

VALUE_AFTER_CONVERSION  = V_CHAR.

Hope this simple routine is useful.

If you have any doubts, please don't hesitate to ask.

Regards,

Mohammed Mohsen
