Error in ASSIGN syntax...

aris_hidalgo — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 08:52:45 GMT

Hello Experts,

I am having an ABAP dump with my code below:


CONSTANTS: lv_table TYPE c LENGTH 30 VALUE '(SAPMV45A)VBAK'.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_table> TYPE table.

ASSIGN (lv_table) TO <fs_table>.

The code above is inside a user-exit and I want to assign the table from one of

the include programs to a field-symbol. The error says that the two are not type

compatible.

Hope you can help me guys.Thank you and take care!

hi,

do this way .. declare the field symbols as type any ...


CONSTANTS: lv_table TYPE c LENGTH 30 VALUE '(SAPMV45A)VBAK'.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_table> TYPE any.
 
ASSIGN (lv_table) TO <fs_table>.

do like

CONSTANTS: lv_table TYPE c LENGTH 30 VALUE '(SAPMV45A)VBAK'.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_table> TYPE any.

ASSIGN (lv_table) TO <fs_table>.

do reward if helpful

Thank you guys for your replies.However, instead of a table, is is being passed to the

field-symbol as a structure. I want to the whole VBAK table and not a structure.

do this way then ..


CONSTANTS: lv_table TYPE c LENGTH 30 VALUE '(SAPMV45A)VBAK[]'.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_table> TYPE table any.

keep the field symbol as type any...

it is usefull when the assigned structure is not fixed... type any will give liberty to assign any structure to the field-symbol
