Text Changes to UPPER CASE automatically inside the LOOP AT METHOD

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have some problems with my Dialog Screen Table Control. I created a table which display the fields retrieved from a custom table. This Table Control always converts the text field Characters into UPPERCASE when passed to some of the methods that I called. But inside each method, there are no such UPPERCASE translation. And I checked the database field of the table, it actually can accept lower-case characters. What should be the solution to retain the correct CASE of the value in the screen?

Thanks and Regards!

What do you mean? Is there an option to say that the field format wll never change?

Edit: okay got it! Screen Field also has a Lower/Higher Case checbox to be considered.

Yes

There's a checkbox in Attribute Dictionary of the field in the screen painter

You may also check if there's any conversion routine associated to your data element's domain, sometimes it happens.

Hi Cecilio Cruz.,

     Make A Domain With Lower Text Option And Assign To The Field. Tick Upper/Lower Case Option In Table Control Dictionary Attribute For That Field. This Will Solve Your Problem
