Convert Packed values

[Former Member]

Hi All

I have a file on application server. One of fields in the file has packed values. I have to transfer the data into an internal table how can unpack the field values?

Thanks In advance

When you upload, just upload it as plain text.

Then move those values to fields of proper type.

I am downloading data from a file in the application server into an internal table to display it as a report. The file contains packed values. I have to unpack them to show the actual values. How can it be done?

Hi,

Before moving the data into internal table just unpack the data using UNPACK Keyword.

Syntax is like this.

DATA: pack(8) TYPE p DECIMALS 3 VALUE '123.456',

char1(10) TYPE c,

char2(10) TYPE c.

MOVE pack TO char1.

UNPACK pack TO char2.

write: / char2.
