Getting ERROR when downloading alv output to Excel

Hello All,
I get a error message when I try to use the standard funtionality to download the alv output to excel.
The current statement only supports character-type data objects.
What happened?
The current ABAP/4 program "SAPLKKBL " had to be terminated because
one of the statements could not be executed.
This is probably due to an error in the ABAP/4 program.
Error analysis
In statement
   "STRLEN( obj )..."
the argument "obj" can only take a character-type data object.
Source code extract
038620   *   ansonsten entspricht sich min. Ausgabelänge und Ausprägungslänge
038630       else.
038640         if gs_fc-tech_form ne 99.
     >           gs_out-hlplen = strlen( ).
038660         endif.
038670       endif.
In this case, the operand "obj" has the non-character type "I".
Please can anyone put some light on this. It is veru difficult to go through the whole std functionality to download.
Thanks for all support guys!
Sri.

Hi srikanth,
This error comes because the values present in any one of the displayed coloums containing special character like * present before or after the number.... i.e instead of 4 ...**4.
While displaying in the screen it is of no problem. since both *4 are converted into char format (internally) and gets displayed.
But while you download the same throu the EXCEL functionality SAP will intenally convert the same into NUMERIC format. Since 4 is number.
So in that case *4 will cause dump.
*So find out the place in which the value appearing like this *4 and try to correct it.
*Surely it is of Field LENGTH problem. Try to increase the length of the field 4.
It Should WORK.!!!.. else post ur query here.
REWARD POINTS IF USEFUL

Getting error when importing BP records from Excel

Hi,
I am familiar with importing from Excel into SAP using Admin>Data Import/Export, so I very puzzled by an error message.
Row Number 1: Default payment method should be included with the BP's payment methods [Business Partner - Payment Method Code]
This error appears for every row. I do not see the field in the Import From Excel Field pull-down menu that I can add or assign to a column in my excel sheet that will fix this problem.
Thanks!

Jennifer,
If you are so confident about the settings in B1 then it is probably something to do with the import engine.
The other option would be to import this through DTW. Unless there is a compleling why you only want to use the Import utility I would not wait to do this using DTW as it is equally easier given that it is only BP Master and everything is in excel already.
Thanks

Problem in downloading ALV output to Excel

Here are the details of short dump.
Run time Error OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE
The current statement only supports character-type data objects.
What happened?
Error in ABAP application program.
The current ABAP program "SAPLKKBL" had to be terminated because one of the
statements could not be executed.
This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
What can you do?
Print out the error message (using the "Print" function)
and make a note of the actions and input that caused the
error.
To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.
You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer
termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion
date.
Error analysis
In statement
"STRLEN( obj )..."
the argument "obj" can only take a character-type data object.
In this case, the operand "obj" has the non-character type "P".

Declare another variable of same length as 'obj' let us say its obj1 , then move 'obj' to 'obj1', now findout the length of 'obj1', which wil be the same value.
MOVE obj TO obj1.
STRLEN(obj1).
Hope ur dump wil not trigger again.
Regards,
Sujatha.
