Why does thid code not work?

[Former Member]

LOOP AT gt_1 INTO gs_1.

WRITE: / gs_1-created_at+0(8).

gs_1-created_at = gs_1-created_at+0(8).

IF gs_1-created_at IN s_date.

APPEND gs_1 TO gt_11.

ELSE.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

I do not just get the first eight positions. Why?

LOOP AT gt_1 INTO gs_1.

WRITE: / gs_1-created_at+0(8).

gs_1-created_at = gs_1-created_at+0(8).

IF <b>gs_1-created_at IN s_date.</b>

APPEND gs_1 TO gt_11.

ELSE.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

this will certainly fail , because that is date field...

but in different format, bold one will fail...

yeah , that won't fail...

assume you have date is 10.10.2004 or 10/10/2004

then what you will get if you use

<b>char+0(8)</b> the out put will be <b>10/10/</b>

but you will not get the correct thing..

thats what i meant..

Hi,

You can compare the value like,

gs_1-created+0(8) = s_date-low, provided the date format of both are same,
