Question

I am getting a short dump (Field symbol has not yet been assigned) when I run this program.
I know that I may get this error when I don’t fill the t_fieldcat correctly.
As far as I know I have filled the field catalog correctly.

I cannot figure out where the problem is..Please help.

REPORT  Y_ALV1.

type-pools slis.
tables: scarr.

data:
      t_scarr type table of scarr,
      t_fieldcat type slis_t_fieldcat_alv.

data:
      wa_fieldcat type slis_fieldcat_alv.

select-options:
      s_carrid for scarr-carrid.

start-of-selection.
      select * into table t_scarr from scarr where carrid in s_carrid.
        if sy-subrc ne 0.
          leave list-processing.
          endif.

define fill_fieldcatalog.
  wa_fieldcat-col_pos = &1.
  wa_fieldcat-fieldname = &2.
  wa_fieldcat-tabname = &3.
  wa_fieldcat-outputlen = &4.

  append wa_fieldcat to t_fieldcat.

  end-of-definition.

Unfortunately the case does matter here. Change the following lines:

fill_fieldcatalog 1 'carrid' 't_scarr' 10.
fill_fieldcatalog 2 'carrname' 't_scarr' 10.

to

fill_fieldcatalog 1 'CARRID' 't_scarr' 10.
fill_fieldcatalog 2 'CARRNAME' 't_scarr' 10.
