hi,

you can use this fm NUMERIC_CHECK to find out whether the given number is a number of has any characters other than number.

CALL FUNCTION 'NUMERIC_CHECK'
   EXPORTING
     STRING_IN        = NUM1
IMPORTING
*   STRING_OUT       =
    HTYPE            = stype
           .

Hello Ghadeer Zahaiqa.

There is no way to accept only letters.

As others above suggested, you need to write an explicit check.
