Unicode Error

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

We are on ecc 6.0 version, and for the following code it is throwing an unicode error saying:

"the type of the database table and work area "i_ekpo" are not unicode-convertible"

TYPES: BEGIN OF T_EKPO,

MANDT LIKE EKPO-MANDT,

EBELN LIKE EKPO-EBELN,

EBELP LIKE EKPO-EBELP,

WERKS LIKE EKPO-WERKS,

MENGE LIKE EKPO-MENGE,

MEINS LIKE EKPO-MEINS,

NETWR LIKE EKPO-NETWR,

NETPR LIKE EKPO-NETPR,

END OF T_EKPO.

data:i_ekpo type standard table of t_ekpo with header line.

data:wa_ekpo type t_ekpo.

select * from ekpo into table i_ekpo.

Thanks and Regards,

Vishwa.

Hi,

Take out "with header line" extension from declaration. You have explicit work area for the same. Then, y do u need internal table with header line?

Hope this solves your problem.

TYPES: BEGIN OF T_EKPO,

MANDT LIKE EKPO-MANDT,

WERKS LIKE EKPO-WERKS,

basic idea about Unicode ..

" internal table not convertible" basically happens cos of ne of the field type is not similar .

ur error here is that u are selecting all the fields from database table to ur itab ... the structure of both is different

u can use

move correspondence

itab type ekpo

itab with header line n wa ..(both mean the same )
