Unicode Errors

Hi ABAPpers,

I am getting following Unicode errors.

1. "CPREL" must be a character-type data object (data type C, N, D, T or STRING).

field string).

for

tabix1 = strlen( cprel ).

Here cprel is a structure defined as

DATA: BEGIN OF cprel OCCURS 5000.

INCLUDE STRUCTURE pcl1.

DATA: sgart(2),

pernr LIKE pernr-pernr,

END OF cprel.

Please rectify.

Regards,

Rahul

You can find out the length of a single data object and not of the structure.

Error is in : tabix1 = strlen(cprel).

In place of cprel, you will have to use a data object.

Hope you found out the solution to your problem.

Hi Rahul,

Make sure that the datatypes of the structure fields are of the type C, N, D, T or String. The assignment to check the length of the fields in the structure will work if the fields are character-type. In this case the character type values are concatenated and length can be returned, but if we have a non-character type fields this will result in error .
