Default value for importing parameter

Former Member — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 10:33:03 GMT

Hi all,

I want to default a filename to the impoting parameter of Function module.

But it allows only 21 chars. Can anyone help me in defaulting a value more than

21 chars.

Thanks,

Keerthi.

I think its SAP standard which restricts only to use 21 characters

and by the way why u need to have more than 21 characters when u can always cut short the length and pass it

I'm sorry, but there is no magic way of passing a value containing more than 21 chars into a variable defined as char21.
