Convert into CURR data type

Former Member — Mon, 12 Feb 2007 09:26:36 GMT

Hi all!!

I am reading from a text file, and one of the fields in my file, contains the value of the field LFM1-MINBW (min. orden value). Its data type is CURR a its domain WERT7. The problem is that I can't read the value of this field as a string, I mean, I can not directly read the value from the file, I need a conversion function, or something similar. Does anybody know hor can I gess the function to solve the problem? A function to convert from String into CURR data type??

Thank you very much!

can u take the field value into a character format first and then convert it to ur curr type .

data : v1 like lfm1-MINBW.

data : v2(15) type c.

v2 = '234123333.22'.

write:/ v2.
v1 = v2.

write:/ v1.

Hi,

You will have to populate the field from the file first in a Char variable then you can move the value using below code:

MOVE char_minbw TO I_LFM1-MINBW.

Here you need not have to use any Conversion Function.

Thanks
