Append data from Internal table to another

Former Member — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 19:01:20 GMT

Hi,

I have two internal tables defined as follows:


data: lt_1 like ztable occurs 0.
data: lt_2 like ztable occurs 0.
data: ls_1 like line of lt_1[].
data: low type i value '1',
hight type i value '20,000',
limit type i.

The logic in my program fills data into lt_1.


describe lt_1.
limit = sy-tfill.

Till high < limit I want to perform following:

APPEND rows from low to high in lt_1 to lt_2.

Then increment both low and high with the value of high.


low = low + high.
high = high + high.

I can read lt_1 into ls_1 and then copy fields from ls_1 to header line of lt_2 and then do append for lt_2.

But can this append be done directly without looping throught lt_1 and doing copy of fields.

Thanks,

Check help on syntax APPEND specifially for the LINES OF jtab FROM idx1 TO idx2

You can use it like this:


 APPEND LINES OF jtab FROM L_LOW TO L_HIGH TO ITAB.
