Sorting internal table isue

Former Member — Fri, 07 Nov 2008 20:57:02 GMT

Hello,

I am having problems sorting a table.

The internal table has following data:

Doc_num..........ver_num

TEST123.............02

TEST123.............01

TESTXYZ.............02

TESTXYZ.............03

TESTXYZ.............01

TESTXYZ.............04

Now I am using statement :

SORT itab by doc_num ver_num.

Now this does sort the data according to correct doc_num but not according to ver_num.

Please help.

Thanks.

Regards,

Rajesh

TEST123 02

TESTXYZ 01

TESTXYZ 02

TESTXYZ 03

TESTXYZ 04

Note: I have defined doc_num and ver_num s string....

My input is:

TEST123.............1

TEST123.............2

TESTXYZ.............1

TESTXYZ.............20

TESTXYZ.............10

TESTXYZ.............2

I am seeing following:

TEST123.............1

TESTXYZ.............1

TESTXYZ.............10

TESTXYZ.............20

TESTXYZ.............2

I want to see as follows:

TEST123.............1

TEST123.............2

TESTXYZ.............1

TESTXYZ.............2

TESTXYZ.............10

TESTXYZ.............20

Then you'll have to define the version as some sort of number.
