add-corresponding

[Former Member]

hi,

i have 2 internal table and want to do add-corresponding.

the problem is i have character type field, example ekgrp (purchasing group) where the value is i38.

when run i got runtime error says unable to interpret 'i38' as a number.

how should i avoid the character field being added as i need to use add-corresponding.

thanks

Hi,

This is taken from Documentation.

You can explicitly specify the field name.

DATA: BEGIN OF VECTOR,

X TYPE I,

Y TYPE I,

LENGTH TYPE I,

END OF VECTOR,

BEGIN OF CIRCLE,

VOLUME TYPE P,

Y TYPE P,

RADIUS TYPE I,

X TYPE I,

END OF CIRCLE.

...

The subfields X und Y appear in the two structures VECTOR and CIRCLE; therefore, the ADD-CORRESPONDING statement here is equivalent to the following two statements:

ADD VECTOR-X TO CIRCLE-X.

ADD VECTOR-Y TO CIRCLE-Y.

hi,

for doing add-corresponding the 2 fields from the 2 table should be <b>of same data type and the name of the variable should also be same</b> otherwise it wont add it.....

reward if helpful
