Modify Internal table

Former Member — Fri, 26 Dec 2008 12:05:04 GMT

Hi guys,

I have a scenario wherein i need to move data from 2 separate internal tables to a third internal table.

How do i go about it.

All 3 internal tables have the same structure.

Thanks and regards,

Frank

Hi,

check this:

maybe something like:


APPEND LINES OF itab1 TO itab3.
APPEND LINES OF itab2 TO itab3.

Best regards.

Hi frank,

You can do this is in several ways. One of it would be:


data: it_dest type table ...
        it_src1 type table ...
        it_src2 type table ...

APPEND LINES OF: it_src1 TO it_dest,
                               it_src2 TO it_dest.

Sencond way would be passing first part of task (coping first internal table) to kernel with statement:


it_dest[] = it_scr1[].  "this passes content of source tab to destination, it will overwrite content of it_dest if not empty
"second step has to remain as above, otherwise we would erase what we have just copied
APPEND LINES OF it_scr2 TO it_dest.

Other way would be looping through the tables and appending/inserting these to destination table, but these two above are sufficient.

HI,

You can transfer the data of tab1 and tab2 to table 3 which are having the same structure in the following way

APPEND LINES OF itab1 TO itab2

APPEND LINES OF itab2 TO itab3

APPEND LINES OF itab1 [FROM n1] [TO n2] TO itab2.

where n1 and n2 specify the indexes of the first and last line of itab1 that you want to appned to itab2.
