Problem with decimals input when writing code.

[neXo]

Hello there!

I am writing to you for I have a small problem, which is driving me nuts. The goal is to increase the price of all 0064 American Airlines flights to USD 700.50. But, when I type the code in, the machine does not let me do it. The decimal part appears in red. I have tried with comma, dot and simple quotation marks.

Could anyone be so kind to help me with this issue?

Best regards!!!!

SORT gt_vuelos BY airlineid connectid ASCENDING.

LOOP AT gt_vuelos INTO gs_vuelos WHERE airlineid = 'AA'
AND connectid = 0064.

gs_vuelos-price = 700,50. ***** This is the problem!!! *****

WRITE:/
gs_vuelos-airlineid,
gs_vuelos-connectid,
gs_vuelos-flightdate,
gs_vuelos-price.
ENDLOOP.

SPAN { font-family: "Courier New"; font-size: 10pt; color: #000000; background: #FFFFFF; }.L0S31 { font-style: italic; color: #808080; }.L0S32 { color: #3399FF; }.L0S33 { color: #4DA619; }.L0S52 { color: #0000FF; }.L0S55 { color: #800080; }.L0S70 { color: #808080; }

if you do

variable = value.

SAP expect you follow internal format => NNNN.NN

if you use a parameter, SAP follow the format you have specifiy in SU3 transaction

Assumining the data type of the field price can take in decimals, can you try that within single quotes?

gs_vuelos-price = '700,50'.

What is the type of gs_vuelos-price? How is it defined?

If you're talking about the ABAP syntax error, see Frederic and Sathya comments for the solution.

Better add a screenshot to clarify your question:
