Unicode active problem

[Former Member]

Hi all

I had activated the unicode checks in abap program.Now i am facing problem in program which have Read DATAset clause. In Unicode wherevr i know we can download the file from app. server in string type. Now when i am splitting the screen using offset its working perfect for the fields that are of char type.But for the database fields that are type P are throwing short dumps.For Ex:

t_itab-bdmeng = w+strng120(12).

bdmeng(type p field)

w+strng120(12). string that has fetch value from app. server of type p value.

At this point it gave short dump.And the Dump says that t_itab-bdmeng is type p and therefore not compatible.

So the main prblm is when i fetch the type p value from application server into string type and then pass the value to type p Database field this gaves error.

So can please anyone suggest the solution for this.

It will be great help.

Hi,

so "clean" w+strng120(12) (with replace or translate) with a help-field (type char)

before moving to p-field

Hi,

Avoid accessing the structure using offset & length instead create a new structure of type char components and move data into it. now access it using component name.

Here is an example given by SAP.

*& Report TECHED_UNICODE_SOLUTION_3 *

REPORT teched_unicode_solution_3 .

• Exercise 3: Accessing structures with offset or length

• before Unicode enabling

types:

begin of PART1,

F1(10) type C,

F2(10) type C,

F3(10) type C,

F4(10) type C,

F5(10) type C,

end of PART1.

data: begin of STRUC1,

F0 type I.

include type PART1 as INCL1.

data: F6 type P,

end of STRUC1,

CF(50) type C,

begin of STRUC2,

F0 type I value 42,

F1 type I value 12,

F2 type I value 34,

F3 type I value 56,

F4 type I value 78,

F5 type I value 90,

end of STRUC2.

move-corresponding STRUC2 to STRUC1.

• cf = struc1+4(50). " <-------- Unicode error !!!

CF = STRUC1-INCL1.

condense CF.

write: / CF.

i just created a sample program and it works fine.(unicode system)

data: a type p decimals 2.
data: b type string .
move: '000123456.780' to b .
a = b+3(10) .
write:/ a .

can you try this code in your system and let us know.

also give us the exact dump analysis details.

Hi Anu,

Can you post the source & target structure definitions?

DATA:w_struct(1160) TYPE c.

tab_wa-matnr = w_struct+221(18).

tab_wa-crd = w_struct+239(8).

tab_wa-ffd = w_struct+247(8).

tab_wa-edatu = w_struct+255(8).

tab_wa-shpd = w_struct+263(8).

ASSIGN w_struct+297(13) to <f2> CASTING type P DECIMALS 2.

• MOVE <f2> TO tab_wa-oqty.

• x3 = w_struct+310(11).

ASSIGN w_struct+310(11) to <f1> CASTING type P DECIMALS 2.

MOVE <F1> TO tab_wa-netpr.

Now if i ran the report it gaves short dump..

1.Unable to interpret "IS000" as a number.

or

2.A calculation field is defined too small

plz suggest the solutions for this

HI

THE tab_wa TYPE zsr08_sodextr,

WHERE zsr08_sodextr IS LIKE ZSODEXTR.WHICH IS DATABASE TABLE
