Hi,

want to write 5 tables in 1 file, to write 5 tables into file ,calling program 5 times,passing different itab each time.

But when 1 itab gets write in to the file, when program calls again with 2 itab, it writes overwrites itab 2 . This erase itab 2 data.

Plz tell how to write all itabs.

Thanks.

Use APPENDING TABLE ITAB while selecting the data.

I used SELECT setname setclass descript FROM setheadert APPENDING TABLE i_setheadert

While i_setheadert had already data before selecting from setheadert.

You can use like this -

OPEN DATASET dsn FOR APPENDING IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

LOOP AT ITAB INTO wa_itab.

TRANSFER wa_itab TO dsn.

ENDLOOP.

ENDIF.

CLOSE DATASET dsn.

P.S. - You should use search. F1 on statements. Search in Forums.
