Hi Alka,

use SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETER

please go through the KEY word documentation

there is a system table called INDX( HK )

this will serve your purpose.

hi ,

if you want to use an internal table from one report to another,

then you can use export and import statements to do so.

in report 1 :

data: indxkey like indx-srtfd,

wa_indx type indx.

concatenate sy-uname '_' sy-datum '_' sy-uzeit into indxkey.

export <internal table name> from <internal table name> to database indx(st) from wa_indx id indxkey

submit report2

in report 2 :

data: indxkey like indx-srtfd,

indx_wa type indx.

concatenate sy-uname '_' sy-datum '_' sy-uzeit into indxkey.

import <internal table name> = <internal table name>

from database indx(st) id indxkey to indx_wa.

note ; the definition for internal tables in both the programs should be exaclty the same.

just create two internal tables of same type in both programs.

then in report1.

use

export itab1 = itab1 to memory id 'MEMID'. (any string u can specify)

then in report2

import itab1 = itab1 from memory id 'MEMID'

Hi ,

try :

SUBMIT report EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY

AND RETURN.

write a method in your original program to return the internal table.

in your report 2 use Call method to call the method of report1 which returns your table list.

Export itab1 from report1 and import itab1 into report2.

EXPORT it_outtab = lt_text TO DATABASE indx(xy) ID 'XYZ'.

IMPORT it_outtab = it_outtab1 FROM DATABASE indx(xy) ID 'XYZ'.

note - no need to define it_outtab. and lt_text can be of any type. it_outtab1 should be of type lt_text.
