Inside the message body i have a variable of type char01 and i want to check if it's initial. I switched to the SAPscript editor and entered /: in front of the IF condition. It always take the else part and not the initial one even though the variable is initial. I've tried many different things like: <br>> if var = ' '.<br>> if var EQ ' '.<br>> if var = SPACE.<br>> IF var EQ SPACE.<br>> <br>> None of those worked and it always take the else part. Also, i couldn't use IS INITIAL as it threw an error when i did that. I want to check if it doesn't have a value and not if it has a value.<br>> <br>> Any idea how would i check if the variable is initial inside the message body?<br>> <br>> Thanks a lot for the help.<br>> Ali<br>> <br>> <br>> -------------- next part --------------<br>> An HTML attachment was scrubbed...<br>> URL: http://mailman.mit.edu/pipermail/sap-wug/attachments/20101215/5f84bf8a/attachment-0001.htm<br>> <br>> ------------------------------<br>> <br>> Message: 2<br>> Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2010 09:23:49 +1100<br>> From: Rick Bakker <rbakker@gmail.com><br>> Subject: Re: Check For Initial Value inside a Mail Step<br>> To: "SAP Workflow Users' Group" <sap-wug@mit.edu><br>> Message-ID:<br>> <AANLkTik+zckkYzy2xkLYaMw-en=UDSkb2NVdqkBxU49O@mail.gmail.com><br>> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1<br>> <br>> Hello,<br>> <br>> Try:<br>> /: IF &VAR& = ' '<br>> (there is a single space between the quotes)<br>> <br>> regards<br>> Rick Bakker<br>> hanabi technology<br>> <br>> On Thu, Dec 16, 2010 at 7:20 AM, Ali Husain <mr_mago40@hotmail.com> wrote:<br>> ><br>> > Hello All,<br>> ><br>> > I have a mail step embedded in an activity task.
