the line of error is compute erfmg = tab-erfmg / 100 .

value of tab-erfmg is 00200.

and erfmg is of type char 6 .

can anyone suggest why it is thrwoing a dump and what is the role of compute .?

thanks,

Abhishek,

Change the type of the variable to I or P or N depending on the req.

That will not give you any dump...

Thanks

hi declare result varibale as type n instead of type C.

demo code -

data d1(5) type c.

data d2 type n.

d1 = '00200'.

d2 = d1 / 100.

write: d2.

TRY TO TAKE IT IN TYPE P VARIABLE AND CALCULATE THAT AFTER CALCULATION YOU CAN TAKE IT IN CHAR VAR.

JUST CHECK IN ABAP EDITOR MENU

GOTO---->ATTRIBUTES.

FIXED POINT ARITHMETIC IS TICKED OR NOT ?

JUST MAKE A TICK THERE.
