Type mismatch

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am calling a method decared in a global class (se24) in my program. The method requires an import value TITLE which is defined as STRING.

In the program, I pass a text message to this global method. See the following:

call method ZW_UPDATE=>F1HELP
          EXPORTING
            TITLE       = text-002.                         

However, when I try to run the program, it complains that "TEXT-002" is not type-compatible with formal parameter "TITLE".

How can I get around with this problem?

Thanks,

Anna

Move the text element to a string and pass the string.

data: str type string.


str = text-002

call method ZW_UPDATE=>F1HELP
          EXPORTING
            TITLE       = str.

Regards.

define a string variable and pass it like the below.

data: str type string.

str = '23243245235235t2fgsdfgdgsergegewwewefawef'(002).

call method ZW_UPDATE=>F1HELP
          EXPORTING
            TITLE       = str.

Hi,

you can not pass the text element directly to the method or function module. you need to declare the data variable with type C or String and then need to pass it to FM/Method.

I hope it will solve your query.
