internal table

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

we have an internal table declared as following:

<b>data: begin of t_file occurs 0,

line(1200) type c,

end of t_file.</b>

what does the line(1200) represent here?

thnx in advance.

Hi,

line is a char type variable of internal table t_file which can accomodate 1200 characters i.e, of length 1200.

i.e, t_file-line = '123....1200'.

Reward if it helps...

'line' is a field of the internal table t_file which is of type 'C' (character) and length 1200.

It's the length of the variable.

hi,

if u pass a string with more than 1200 characters , the value will not be populated in to the table field. u will get an error.

hope this helps.

If you want to know the occupied length of the field you can use STRLEN as follows.

DATA: v_len type i.

v_len = STRLEN( t_file-line ).

But as others pointed out, any string greater than 1200 will be truncated.
