parameters as type string

Former Member — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 11:14:08 GMT

Hi,

I have declared a parameter type string.

How to read the value from it as the way exactly user inputs on this field. ( It may be combination of Upper and Lower Case)

It should not be converted into specific lower/upper case.

hi,

use parameter addition LOWER CASE

LOWER CASE

Effect

This addition prevents the content of character-type fields from being converted to uppercase letters when the input field on the selection screen is transported to the data object para in the program and vice versa.

The addition LOWER CASE cannot be used together with the additions AS CHECKBOX or RADIOBUTTON.

example

parameters : var type string LOWER CASE.

write : var.

O/P----> if you string as AbCd

it displays as AbCd

Hi Charan,

If you are using this parameter to fetch a file name then use:

PARAMETER : p_name TYPE RLGRAP-FILENAME. You'll get the name as it is.
