How to create field symbol in Se24.

[amruthaakp1]

I want to change a local class to global class. So i need to create a field symbol in global, so please help me how can I achieve this.

Global field symbols are not possible in class pools. Only local field symbols are allowed.

Sorry, but this question hardly make any sense. Do you have a local class in a program and you want to convert it to a global class? Create a global class and simply copy-paste the code in source code view.

What does this have to do with field-symbols?
