How to use variable as fieldname?

[Former Member]

Hi forums,

i need to loop the columns and rows of a table, so i created a fieldcatalog and loop the rows of the table in the outer-loop and the rows of the catalog in the inner loop.

See the code below, wa_fieldcat-fieldname contains the fieldname of the field i want assign to item-text.

LOOP AT stueckliste INTO wastueckliste.
      LOOP AT fieldcat INTO wa_fieldcat.
        item-item_name = wa_fieldcat-fieldname.
        item-text = wastueckliste-{i need content of wa_fieldcat-fieldname here}
      endloop.
ENDLOOP.

eg. if wa_fieldcat-fieldname contains the string 'matnr', item-text shall become the content of wastueckliste-matnr, i hope you understand what i mean... i've already tried to assign wa_fieldcat-fieldname to a a fieldsymbol and access the field by wastueckliste-<fs> but that doesn't work, too...

btw: i know that snippet doesn't do nothing, its just an example...

Hi,

Try this way,

DATA: stueckliste   ...
DATA: wastueckliste ...

DATA: fieldcat ...
DATA: wa_fieldcat ...

FIELD-SYMBOLS <field> TYPE ANY.

LOOP AT stueckliste INTO wastueckliste.
  LOOP AT fieldcat INTO wa_fieldcat.

    item-item_name = wa_fieldcat-fieldname.

" Here you are moving the field 'matnr'  of  wastueckliste to a field-symbol
    ASSIGN COMPONENT wa_fieldcat-fieldname
                      OF STRUCTURE wastueckliste TO <field>.

" IF ok, just use <field> as wastueckliste-matnr
    IF sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
      item-text = <field>.
    ELSE.
      "   error
    ENDIF.
  ENDLOOP.
ENDLOOP.
