How to get data type of variable in program..

[Former Member]

Hi ABAP Guru.

I need to know how to get data type of variable or any structure field.. because I got short dump when use command REPLACE ALL OCCURANCE ... with variable/structure field that has data type I or P, I think it should be used with data type CHAR only, So I need to check the data type first.

Please give me your advice

Thank you all.

data : v_value type i,
         v_char(10) type c.

v_value = 10.

move v_value to v_char.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES of '#' from v_char....

Hi,

To know the type of a variable you can take the help of key word DESCRIBE

Please take F1 on the above key word .
