... are not mutually convertible in a Unicode program.

Former Member — Tue, 09 Jan 2007 14:03:19 GMT

when trying to write data to a file, I get this message:

error message:

"H_LINEBUFFER" and "I_YLSRCORD" are not mutually convertible in a Unicode program.

my declaration:

DATA: h_linebuffer TYPE string.

DATA: i_ylsrcord LIKE /bic/aylsrcord00 OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

place where I get the error:

loop at i_ylsrcord.

move i_ylsrcord to h_linebuffer.

TRANSFER h_linebuffer to h_file.

endloop.

DATA: i_ylsrcord LIKE /bic/aylsrcord00 OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

It's declared as an Internal Table while

DATA: h_linebuffer TYPE string.

It's declared as a field....That's why you can't assign i_ylsrcord to h_linebuffer. You can pass fields not tables to a field type....

Do you even need the string?

loop at i_ylsrcord.
*move i_ylsrcord to h_linebuffer.
TRANSFER  i_ylsrcord  to h_file.
endloop.

hi Joris,

loop at i_ylsrcord.

move i_ylsrcord to h_linebuffer. ---> You are trying to pass an internal table to a string

TRANSFER h_linebuffer to h_file.

endloop.

No, he is not, he is passing the header line to the string.

Hi Joris,

Try declaring h_linebuffer as below.

data: h_linebuffer(132).

Hope it helps..
