How to print apostrophe ( ' ) using the WRITE statement

Printing apostrophes ( ' ) in ABAP is really tricky as in ABAP coding we have to give values in quotes like 'Ricky World'. So how to use WRITE: 'Ricky's World' ? If you try to type this it will give syntax error!

The trick is use three apostrophes instead of one.

1
2
3
DATA: LINE(20) TYPE C.
CONCATENATE 'You''' 'll be there.' INTO LINE.
WRITE:/ LINE.


or simply :

1
WRITE:/ 'You''ll be there.'.
