I need to pass Null Value to couple of fields in Internal table and one of them is type i.

Any way to do it?

For Type CHAR or STRING pass SPACE.

For TYPE I it will be 0.00.

Here is the sample code of it

data :  begin of itab  occurs  0,
          field1(10)  type   c ,
          field2(10) type  i ,
          end of itab.

itab-field1  =  ' '.
itab-field2 = 0.0 .

Append  itab .

Null value for char type is ' ' i.e space

Null value for integer type is 0.

Thanks

It gives 0 as value for type i.

Using itab-field = 0.0. results in value being shown as 0 rather than Null. Any other suggestion?

Hi,

value '0' itself denotes null for integers because if you don't assign anything to it , it will be set to '0'. So, if you want to store null , you will have to change its data type!
