Overwritten protected field

Dear All,

I am getting the following short dump.

Error at assignment: Overwritten protected field.

Attaching the source code:

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <SFN>.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <DFN>.

LOOP AT SHARED_FIELDS.

ASSIGN (SHARED_FIELDS-SOURCE_FIELD) TO <SFN>.

ASSIGN (SHARED_FIELDS-DESTIN_FIELD) TO <DFN>.

IF <DFN> IS INITIAL.

IF NOT <SFN> IS INITIAL.

MOVE <SFN> TO <DFN>. ==>>> Getting short dump in this line

ENDIF.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

Any clue how to avoid that dump.

Best Regards,

T

SHARED_FIELDS-SOURCE_FIELD is protected. That means that it could be part of the key of a table - you can't change key. Or it's part of an importing parameter of a method - you can't change importing parameters.

To be absolutely sure, I'd need data definitions, and the calling program.
