Hello,

While executing the Zprogram ...I am receiving a run time error.

Got Runtime Error BCD_OVERFLOW

When I analysed the issue in ST22....Type P

Result is larger than one which is defined...

Any suggestion would be appreciated ...

Hi,

You may need to define the result field to be larger, if it is still

possible to do so.

there is another way you can handle this error...

You can give a try using this sample code:

***********************************

Data : l_number_str type string.

Catch system-exceptions convt_no_number = 1

convt_overflow = 2

bcd_field_overflow = 3

bcd_overflow = 4.

l_number = l_number_str.

endcatch

Hi,

what ever u r passing one variable to another variable that length is low .

ex.

data:a(10) type c,

b(5) type c .

a=1000000000.

b=a.

at that time u will get this error.
