Hi. I have the next problem.

Let' supose that I have a variable wich contents the name of a data element (ls_element = NAME_ORG).

I want to define another variable using the content of the previus variable (ls_variable TYPE NAME_ORG).

How can I do that??

Hello,

try using the CREATE DATA statement:


DATA type_name TYPE TYPENAME.
DATA dyn_data TYPE REF TO DATA.

* Dynamically create the variable dyn_data
type_name = 'VBAK'.               " <-- or any other valid type
CREATE DATA dyn_data TYPE (type_name).

Use a field symbol to work with the dynamically defined variable.

Best regards

David

Hi,

Firstly, you can get NAME_ORG into one variable using ((ls_element).. like..

lv_temp = ((ls_element).

Once you get this.. use CREATE DATA.. to create lv_variable.
