issue with case sensitive

Former Member — Mon, 26 Mar 2007 17:51:24 GMT

Hi all,

I am reading data from a ztable into itab and displaying it in a table control.

iam moving itab to itab1.

The table control fields are modifiable .

when i click save i am comparing itab with itab1 even though i haven't made any changes

it says both the internal tables are not same.

one thing i found , i have couple character fields.

The case sensitive is changing for some of the fields.

LET ME KNOW HOW CAN I IGNORE CASE SENSITIVE WHEN I COMPARING TWO INTERNAL TABLES.

Thanks

one option is to convert them to UPPER CASE first & then do the comparison.

Hi Venki,

Before comparing the fields maintain them in the LOWERCASE/UPPER CASE.

Use TRANSLATE statement to convert them either to LOWER CASE/UPPER CASE.

Thanks,

Vinay
