Former Member — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 12:26:07 GMT

Hi,

I am running the following code in abap editor

DATA: LEN TYPE I VALUE 10,

POS TYPE I VALUE 11,

TEXT(10) VALUE ‘1234567890’

WRITE AT POS (LEN) TEXT .

Following error i am getting when i compile

Field "1234567890" is unknown. It is neithere in on of the specified tables nor defined by a DATA statement.

Could you please let me know the solution.

Thanks,

RamuV

hi,

You missed '.' at the end of ‘1234567890’. Place this to avoid the error.

DATA: LEN TYPE I VALUE 10,

POS TYPE I VALUE 11,

TEXT(10) VALUE ‘1234567890’.

WRITE AT POS (LEN) TEXT .

declaration is not having full point and '.' is missing

DATA: LEN TYPE I VALUE 10,

POS TYPE I VALUE 11,

TEXT(10) VALUE ‘1234567890’.

WRITE AT POS (LEN) TEXT .

Check this

There appear to be some garbage characters in this line and your WRITE is incorrect. Cut and paste this:

DATA: len TYPE i VALUE 10,
      pos TYPE i VALUE 11,
      text(10) VALUE '1234567890'.

WRITE AT pos(len) text .
