LKKBLF99 runtime error while export data to the local file

Question

Hi experts,
i got this error while i export data to the local file.
Runtime Errors         OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE
Date and Time          10.09.2011 13:32:43
Short text
     The current statement requires a character-type data object.
Error analysis
    At the statment
         "STRLEN( obj )..."
    , only character-type data objects are supported at the argument
    position "obj".
    In this particular case, the operand "obj" has the non-charcter-type type
    "P".
"OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE"
"SAPLKKBL" or "LKKBLF9
"GEN_FIELD_OUT2"
Include               LKKBLF99
  Überführung int. in ext. Format via Konvertierungsexit
    if not gs_fc-convexit is initial or                     "INS TECH11
       not gs_fc-inttype ca 'CN'.
  elseif not gs_fc-convexit is initial.            "DEL TECH11
      write  to gs_out-hlpchar left-justified.
      gs_out-hlplen = strlen( gs_out-hlpchar ).
  ansonsten entspricht sich min. Ausgabelänge und Ausprägungslänge
    else.
      if gs_fc-tech_form ne 99.
        gs_out-hlplen = strlen(  ).
      endif.
    endif.
  endif.
the error says the operand "obj" has the non-charcter-type type " P" .
i do debug on this and find the LS_FIELDCAT-INTTYPE = " P". so i changed it the QUAN type with length 13 decimal places 2. i can't change it in "C" char type or "NUMC" type  because i need the output in decimals. the output is for amount and quantity so need this in decimal places up to 2 or 3.
but still find the same, i do debug on it after change it into QUAN type. find the same value for LS_FIELDCAT-INTTYPE = " P".
let me know how can i define this in char type with decimal places or what.
Please give some suggestion, if you need code, i will post the code.
Thanks in advance
Sachin
