Syntax error in Unicode environment

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have below piece of code in 1 program ...

do.

replace ',' with space into w_mbew.

if sy-subrc > 0.

exit.

endif.

enddo.

It works fine when unicode attribute set. But the moment i set the unicode attribute and activate the program, i get a syntax error which reads as below -

"W_MBEW" must be a character-type data object (data type C,N,D,T or String)"

The work area W_MBEW is of type MBEW.

Can anyone guide me to fix this error.

Will definitely reward points.

Hello,

It seems like you're trying to replace a character in any field of W_MBEW. Try to make the replacement in a single field.
