REPORT ZYH284_TEST2.

field-symbols:

<fs> type i.

DATA:

w_index type i.

do 10 times.

assign sy-index to <fs>.

write / <fs>.

enddo.

i've successfully created a watch-point for <fs>, say for a value 5. Also observed that a watch point can only be created after the <b>ASSIGN</b> statement, which makes sense.

Hi,

IT is not possible to set watch point.

Try it.

Reward if useful!

Hi,

Its not possible, as you may not know the concrete TYPE of the field symbol if it is declared as TYPE ANY.

So when you create watch point only Data can be checked.

Watch point can be used for field symbols only after Assign statement.

Thanks for your valuable suggestions.
