reading internal table without case sensitive

former_member671224 — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 20:06:45 GMT

Hi,

In internal table values are in uppercase. but the input value is in lowercase.

So i couldnt able to read that record. can any one tell me how to read internal table without considering case (lower or upper ).

Example:

read table <internal table> with key <field val> = <input val> .

In this filed val is in uppercase and input val is in lower case.

Regards,

Amal

Hi,

In abap the string is case sensitive..

So conver your input value to upper case ..and use it in the read table..

TRANSLATE v_string TO UPPER CASE.

Thanks

in ABAP what ever you give on selection screen by default it will take as UPPER CASE letter

if you want to change the input to a internal table then use TRANSLATE to trnslate that into UPPERCASE

<b>syntax</b>

TRANSLATE input val TO UPPER CASE.
