Short Reference

ABAP Syntax ADD dobj1 TO dobj2.

What does it do? This statement has the same effect as the statement
dobj2 = dobj2 + dobj1.
The content of dobj1 is added to the content of dobj2 and the result is assigned to dobj2 . The data objects dobj1
and dobj2 have to be numeric. Predefined functions or functional methods cannot be specified. The calculation type is determined like an arithmetic expression .
ABAP_PGL Using Operator Format
Latest notes: Obsolete forms of statement ADD are
ADD...THEN...UNTIL and ADD-CORRESPONDING .

Example ABAP Coding After adding, the result contains the character string "_________1". The calculation type is decfloat34 . The content of the character-type field result is converted to
decfloat34 before the operation and back to c after the operation.
