When you assign a field-symbol with any variable then any changes in its value would reflect in the variables value.

For example if you have assigned it with an independent variable or with any column of internal table with the statement ASSIGN <fs>... then <fs> = 'value'

This 'value' would reflect in the respective variable...

All you have to do is MODIFY itab...

Hi,

for example, assign a field symbol to an internal table:

DATA :

i_table TYPE TABLE OF SFLIGHT.

FIELD-SYMBOLS :

<fs> TYPE SFLIGHT.

LOOP AT i_table ASSIGNING <fs>.

...

ENDLOOP.

No me i want to do the opposite:

i have <fs> type any. the fs is filled (table).

I want move the content (records of <fs>) in an internal table or char(250) for example.

The program dump when i put: move <fs> to char or to table..............

Hi Simo,

Try this way.

Loop at itab assigning <FS>.

<FS>-text = 'Add Text to Internal table itab'.

endloop.

In our first statement the the itab work area is assigned as <FS> so reference is made.

Now when you change the contents in this reference automatically the internal table value also changes.

Hope this would have helped you.

Thanks,

Say if you have value in a field symbol <fs>.

declare a character

DATA: value(60) TYPE C.

IF NOT <fs> IS INITIAL.

value = <fs>.

ENDIF.

This should work for assigning a value from a field symbol to the character.

I shall check for assigning to any table & let you know soon.

Thanks

You will have to assign the <fs> with appropriate variable at first...then u can move the data..

If it is of different tupe thenit will giv u a dump.

THE CODE:

data: v_char(1025).

<fs> type any.

move <fs> to v_char.

The runtime error is: OBJECTS_MOVE_NOT_SUPPORTED

Conversion of type "v" to type "C" not supported.

Hi,

For your code, You first need to assign some variable to field symbol.

Have a look.

data char(3) type c.

field-symbols : <fs> type any.

assign char to <fs>.

<fs> = 'aaa'.

move <fs> to char.

write : / char.

like this it is working.

Thanks so much for all your answers.

I found the solution for my problem.

If you are interested, this is the syntax what i need :

LOOP AT <l_t_messtab> ASSIGNING <l_s_messtab>.

ASSIGN COMPONENT 'T_MSG' OF STRUCTURE <l_s_messtab> TO <l_box>.

move <l_box> to CHAR.

etc..............

endloop.

FIELD-SYMBOLS:

<l_t_messtab> TYPE table,

<l_s_messtab> TYPE ANY,

<l_box> TYPE C.

NB: <l_t_messtab> is complexed structure alimented by standard program.
