hi you cannot use conctenate with other than char data.

so you declare a character data type and assign value of field having type Dec5.2 and than concatinate it.

eg. if you have it_data_2-num type Dec5.2

data: char(10) type c.

LOOP AT it_d_2.

char = it_data_2-num.

CONCATENATE it_d_2-employee_number it_data_2-bow char

it_d_2-text1 it_d_2-text2 it_d_2-text3 it_d_2-leihg

INTO c_tab-rec SEPARATED BY ','..

APPEND c_tab.

ENDLOOP.

Hi Recardo,

As well as the MOVE statement, which converts the value of the source field into the data type of the target field, there is also a statement WRITE TO, which converts the contents of the source field into a field with type C.

WRITE <f1> TO <f2> .

This statement converts the contents of a data object <f1> to type C, and places the string in the variable <f2>.

So, u use the field of type dec5.2 to Char variable & then concatenate that variable in the required position to that record.

WRITE <FIELD> TO v_char.

This will surely works. Try it out & let me know in case of any concerns.

Dont forget to reward points if this is useful

if you move a decimal number to char field, the decimal format will not be stored instead...use the "WRITE - Formatting options ":

Write : <Field1> to <Field2>

Field 2 is a char type.. Field 1 can be of any data type...

Check the help on Write statement

Hope this helps you
