either float or packed.

Hi rohit,

You cannot perform calculations on fields of type C

Declare variables of type p decimals 2 and perform the calculations

Hi,

Declare all teh variables as TYPE P with decimals.

Then after doing teh calaculation teh values will be there in ws_dg_value.

Declare one more variable with max length needed of type C.

Then <b>v_var = ws_dg_value</b>.

Then<b> print v_var</b>. This will solve ur problem

Reward if thsi helps.
