hi KR,

thanx for reply, but type is not working and still i m getting same error. can anyone please help me?

HI

check the Data types of the fields LGA01, BET01 in the table P0008. Both the fields should be of same type.

or else you can declare field symbols and use them in place of that variables.

hi KR,

type is not same. for field LGA01 type is CHAR and length

is 4, while for BET01 type is CURR and length is 13.

can u please modify the above code? or tell me that how can i

define the field symbol for the same?

Hi,

By using field sybols u can avoid

FIELD-SYMBOLS <WAGETYPES> LIKE P0008-LGA01.
DATA inc TYPE i.
DO 20 TIMES. 
          inc = sy-index  - 1. 
          ASSIGN P0008-LGA01 INCREMENT inc TO         <WAGETYPES>  RANGE P0008. 
 IF WAGETYPES-LGA IS INITIAL.
     EXIT.
endif.
ENDDO.

Also check:

DO - varying SAP help.
