Unicode Type not Convertible

Former Member — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 11:33:45 GMT

I am upgrading 4.7 to 6.0

I am getting error

Dbname and wa are not convertible for following statement

select (obj-name) into work

where.....

I have already tried declaring work as same data type as obj-name, then it gives error like 'work area too small'

both 'work' and obj-name are of type c

size of work is 3000

size of obj-name is 30

Hello Surbhi

OBJ-NAME contains the name of a DB table. Thus, WORK must be defined accordingly, e.g.:


DATA: ldo_data    TYPE REF TO data.

FIELD-SYMBOLS:
  <ls_struc>         TYPE any.


" Example: obj-name = 'KNB1'.

CREATE DATA ldo_data TYPE (obj-name).
ASSIGN ldo_data->* to <ls_struc>.

select (obj-name) into <ls_struc>
where.....

Regards
