Length of the field in debugging

Question

Hi,
I have declared the "rate" field like this in a program.
the field "konp-kbetr" is of "CURRENCY" field type and the length is: 11,2.
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
              rate like konp-kbetr,
      end of itab.
select kbetr from konp into itab-rate.
but while dubugging the contents for the "rate" field in itab shows like this:
no    component name    type    length    contents
1.    rate               P         6         0.00
What could be the probelm for that?
please let me know.
thnx.

Answer 1

VIJAY,
there are 3 itabs in my prog like this.
1st itab:
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
        rate  like konp-kbetr,
      end of itab.
2nd itab:
data: begin of itab2 occurs 0,
        knumh like a505-knumh,
      end of itab2.
3rd itab:
data: begin of itab3,
        awp like konp-kbetr,
     end of itab3.
the code is like this:
      select kbetr from konp into itab-rate
             where knumh = itab2-knumh.
        append itab.
      endselect.
    loop at itab.
      write itab-rate to itab3-awp.
    endloop.
when i debug the code, the "rate" field is showing the correct value for the 2nd itab.
but the problem is with the 3rd itab only. it is basically a structure. and in that i want the value eventually.
thnx,
