Unicode Issue

Kinsbrunner — Thu, 07 Feb 2008 22:31:50 GMT

Hi all!

I'm updating from a non-Unicode system to a Unicode one and I'm getting the following error on both Translate statements:

"HEX00" must be a character-type data object (data type C, N, D, T or STRING)."

"HEXFF" must be a character-type data object (data type C, N, D, T or STRING)."

The code is the following:

DATA: BEGIN OF HEX00,

A(1) VALUE ' ',

C(1) TYPE X VALUE '20',

END OF HEX00.

DATA: BEGIN OF HEXFF,

A(1) VALUE ' ',

C(1) TYPE X VALUE 'FF',

END OF HEXFF.

RANGES: R_OBJECT FOR STXH-TDOBJECT.

TRANSLATE R_OBJECT-LOW USING HEX00.

TRANSLATE R_OBJECT-HIGH USING HEXFF.

Please I need a solutino as soon as possible.

Regards,

Alejandro.

Try this, I'm not sure if it will help


data: hex20var(2), hexffvar(2).

concatenate hex00-a hex00-c to hex20var.
concatenate hexff-a hexff-c to hexffvar.

and do


TRANSLATE R_OBJECT-LOW USING HEX20var.
TRANSLATE R_OBJECT-HIGH USING HEXFFvar.

Hi,

check this link

try this way,

DATA: BEGIN OF HEX00,

A(1) VALUE ' ',

C(2 TYPE CVALUE '20', "Change data type for X to C

END OF HEX00.

DATA: BEGIN OF HEXFF,

A(1) VALUE ' ',

C(2 TYPE CVALUE 'FF', "Change data type for X to C

END OF HEXFF.
