What's wrong with the if-statement

the last else-branch is not executed... why?

                if wa_not_existing_values-node_value(4) = co_area and wa_not_existing_values-node_value(5) <> str_cctr_chr.
                  str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value+4.
                elseif  strlen( wa_not_existing_values-node_value ) >= 5.
                    if wa_not_existing_values-node_value(5) = str_cctr_chr.
                        str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value+5.
                    endif.    
                else.
                  str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value.
                endif.

if wa_not_existing_values-node_value(4) = co_area and wa_not_existing_values-node_value(5) <> str_cctr_chr.

str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value+4.

elseif strlen( wa_not_existing_values-node_value ) >= 5.

if wa_not_existing_values-node_value(5) = str_cctr_chr.

str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value+5.

endif.

else.

str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value.

endif.

The else would be executed only if the if and elseif condition fails....is that case ? if so can you cut-paste the data for the corresponding values.

Hi,

elseif strlen( wa_not_existing_values-node_value ) >= 5.

if this condition is true then u cant expect else to trigger ..

just change the value in the debugging and see if it goes to else or not ..

regards,

VIjay

hi,

if wa_not_existing_values-node_value(4) = co_area and

wa_not_existing_values-node_value(5) <> str_cctr_chr.

if this condition is satisfied then,

str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value+4.

will be executed and control comes out of if statement.

if the above condition is not satisfied then the control comes to below statement

elseif strlen( wa_not_existing_values-node_value ) >= 5.

if this condition is satisfied then the below condition is checked

if wa_not_existing_values-node_value(5) = str_cctr_chr.

if this condition is satisfied then, the below statement gets executed and control comes out of if statement

str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value+5.

if the condition wa_not_existing_values-node_value(5) = str_cctr_chr. is not satisfied then the below statement gets executed

str_cctr = wa_not_existing_values-node_value.

so when , wa_not_existing_values-node_value(4) = co_area and wa_not_existing_values-node_value(5) <> str_cctr_chr

and strlen( wa_not_existing_values-node_value ) >= 5.

are false then then the control comes to else statement which u require
