Offset problem more than 240 characters

Question

hi all,
please find the coding,when i run this program i got dump.
how to correct this dump.
wa_prchr = 'In Stahl India various sales scenarios are created   standard orders (Order type - OR)Sale order is created based on the customer purchase order from Chennai KanpurKolkattasample orders (Order type - FD)sample orders (Order type - FD)sample '..
a = 0.
b = 0.
do 15 times.
b = b + 72.
          wa_text =  wa_prchr+a(b).
              wa_tline-tdline = wa_text .
          wa_tline-tdformat = '*'.
         append wa_tline to tlinetab.
a = a + 72.
clear b.
clear wa_text.
enddo.
i got dump like this
Invalid access to a string (offset and length too large).
However, the sum of the offset (216) and length (72) specification
was greater than the length of the string (240).
This is not allowed.

Answer 1

Problem occurs because length of wa_prchr is 240.
Whereas  you are doing loop for 15 times and reading 72 characters in each loop pass.
so in 3rd loop pass, program tries to read 72*3 = 216 (72). As a result, program tries to read wa_prchr till (216+72 ) 288 characters.
As a result, there is a length mismatch and you get a dump.
Solution: Either specify length of wa_prchr to 1080 characters.
Or modify your do loop.
