Problem with passing structure in PERFORM ... Statement

[Former Member]

I have the following perform statement

PERFORM fill_segment using wa_msg g_simulate.

Form..

FORM fill_segment using p_ msg p_simulate.

wa_xr-country = p_msg-country.

....

ENDFORM.

I have the following error

the dataobjct p_msg has no structure and therefore no component called country

Definition of wa_msg

wa_msg TYPE zemsgs,

zemsgs is a transparent table

Change the FORM definition to this:

FORM fill_segment USING p_msg LIKE wa_msg
                                        p_simulate.

ENDFORM

I have learned that you can not pass a structure as a variable into a perform. How I have gotten around it is just make the structure variable (wa_msg) a global and then do the work as you are doing. Without passing the variable to the perform.

See my response. You absolutely can pass a structure to a form.

Try this.

FORM fill_segment using p_msg type zemsgs
                                      p_simulate.

You may also need to TYPE the p_SIMULATE.
