dynamic internal table

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am creating a dynamic internal table using the method

cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table

The problem i face is i am getting an error "Unable to interpret "-". Possible causes of error: 8 -"

I found that one of the entries in field catalog structure contains a hyphen '-'.

is this the reason ? Are there other characters like this which will cause similar issues ? Please advice.

Helpful answers will be rewarded.

Thanks

Hi,

The real issue was the presence of spaces in field catalog entries.

for example, field catalog internal table should have "NoSpace" and not "No Space".

Thanks

Hi,

I can't give you a definitive answer as I don't know much about how that works but what you could do is debug through the method and find where it throws that error - you may find it does a number of validations which will allow you to figure out anything else that may cause it to break.
