The current statement requires a character-type data object.

Hello Gurus

I am getting error when I go for print preview / print option for my ALV report.

Error is :-

Runtime Errors OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE

The current statement requires a character-type data object.

At the statment

"STRLEN( obj )..."

, only character-type data objects are supported at the argument

position "obj".

In this particular case, the operand "obj" has the non-charcter-type type

"P".

<< Unformatable text removed - please post the portion of the dump that contains the error. >>

Can anyone please help me in this problem.

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

the error is giving by STRLEN operation.

Seems that you are trying to know how long is an amount. The error is not in the field catalog.

You have to jump the STRLEN instruction in case of number or packed variables.

Best regards
