Dynamic where clause

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have to construct a dynamic where clause and I am stuck with a problem. I don't know what fields I will have in my where clause, so I have to decide where to put quotes for the character values and where not to put values for numaric values. I have the dynamic fields in a table type DFIES. There, I have a field DATATYPE. I found out the following list of predefined datatypes in ABAP Dictionary, I hope it is complete. So, I thought to check the datatype field and to decide whether I need quotes or not.

But I am not shure for what data types I need quotes. I wrote bellow what I know, and maybe you can complete what I don't know.

Type Permitted Places m Meaning ABAP Type

ACCP 6 Accounting period n(6) -> ???

CHAR 1-255 Character string c(m) -> QUOTES

CLNT 3 Client c(3) -> QUOTES

CUKY 5 Currency key c(5) -> QUOTES

CURR 1-17 Currency field p((m+1)/2) -> ???

DATS 8 Date d -> ???

DEC 1-31, in tables: 1-17 Calculation/amount field p((m+1)/2) -> ???

FLTP 16 Floating point number f(8) -> ???

INT1 3 1 byte integer b -> NO QUOTES

INT2 5 2 byte integer s -> NO QUOTES

INT4 10 4 byte integer i -> NO QUOTES

LANG 1 Language c(1) -> QUOTES

LCHR 256-... Long character string c(m) -> QUOTES

LRAW 256-... Long byte string x(m) -> ???

NUMC 1-255 Numeric text n(m) -> ???

PREC 2 Accuracy s -> ???

QUAN 1-17 Quantity p((m+1)/2) -> ???

RAW 1-255 Byte sequence x(m) -> ???

RAWSTRING 256-... Byte sequence xstring -> ???

SSTRING 1-255 Character string string -> QUOTES

STRING 256-... Character string string -> QUOTES

TIMS 6 Time t -> ???

UNIT 2-3 Unit c(m) -> ????

If someone knows another way to find out if I need quotes for a field value in a dynamic where clause please let me know.

Thank you!
