How to Clear The Initial Values???

[Simha_]

Hi All,

I am taking the value of the time field from an Ztable.

My problem is if there is npo value in that field it is displaying "00.00" which is the initial value.

But i dont want to display that value.

i want to show blank value when there is no time in the table.

I am also converting into char and doing but its giving short dump.

Can any one know any F.M to clear the initial values??

Regards,

Here is the SAP Help page where I found this.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cf/21ebf0446011d189700000e8322d00/frameset.htm

The statement in question is towards the bottom.

It is very simple

Loop at Itab.

if itab-fieldname = '00.00'.

itab-fieldname = ' '.

endif.

Endloop.

Thanks & Regards

hi bandla.

you read the values from database into a char type field instead of numeric type..for eg..

data: time(8) type c.

parameters p_date like sy-datum.

select single time from ztab into time where date = p_date.

if it is any of the numeric types u cant print space for 0, only for char type values it prints initial value space.

u need to convert it to char, no other go.

just analyse what error u r getting and try to fix that error. that is the only way

Simha,

If you are displaying time field in report then you can use abap statment :

write : time-field using no-zeroes.
