Hi!!

In EQKT table there are these datas:

EQKTX EQKTU

r

é

fractom

è

tre R

E

FRACTOM

E

TRE LPMMG04001
r

é

fractom

è

tre LPMMG14001 R

E

FRACTOM

E

TRE LPMMG14001

Now i create a new record using ie01:

EQKTX EQKTU
Test

é à è ê

 TEST

É À È Ê

Why for my new record there are accent for field EQKTU and why for the old record there is'nt accent?

I see by debugging the transaction ie01 that there is the following intruction:

TRANSLATE L_EQKT_REC-EQKT-EQKTU TO UPPER CASE.

TRANSLATE always tranford é in É that's why i really don't understand why there are records for witch the field EQKTU doesn't have accent.

Does the TRANSLATE instruction change at a certain point?

Thanks by advance,

Hi,

In the domain(KTX01) for the field EQKTX , the Lowercase checkbox is checked that is why the text are in Lowercase.

But in the domain(EQKTU) for the field EQKTU, the Lowercase checkbox is not checked, that is the reason the text is appearing in UPPERCASE.

Hope this is useful.

Regards,

I see that the TRANSLATE instruction depend of the text environment. Can i see somewhere if the text environement has change?
