ABAP_DESCRIPTION
In the text field text all the occurrences are searched for (using count and find ) that correspond to a regular expression. When a search is successful, the subfield found is read out and displayed with the help of the match function.
Instead of using the count function, you could also use an unlimited DO loop that is left using EXIT if the result of
find has the value -1.
