Alternative to READ table

Former Member — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 06:28:48 GMT

Dear all,

We can not use READ TABLE with LOGICAL operators like LT, LE,GT,GE ..........

Is there any alternative to read a particular line from an internal table with the logical operators......

Thanks in advance...............

Better read table and then use IF condition.

HI,

you can use Loop WIth Where clause.

LOOP AT ITAB WHERE <COND>.

.....

....

ENDLOOP.

Hi,

U can loop the particular internal table as:

loop at itab into wa where filedname LT '200'.

do ur coding..

endloop.

check for sy-subrc.

if sy-subrc = 0...that means there is a record r more than one record.

hoe this will help u

hiii

i think using LOOP statement with condition you can achieve this.

or you can use read statement and if sy-subrc eq 0 then use condition for LT or GT.

Hi Ubhka,

You can read the Internal table by two way 1) Using the Loop and 2) Using the Read statement.

1) Loop at itab into wa_itab. 
 
  If wa_itab-A LT = '200'
    * the action that you would like to perfrom like moving data from one table to another or appending   
     *data
  endif. 
    endloop.  

2) Read table itab into wa_itab. 
 
 if wa_itab-A LT = '200'
    * the action that you would like to perfrom like moving data from one table to another or appending   
     *data
  endif.

I my view you can try with the loop. Using loop would be a good idea.

Kittu

read table into work area and then apply logical test for this value in work area.

Hi,

Instead of read, in this case you can do a loop

loop at i_tab where field LE value.

do processing.

exit.

Endloop.

you can also do a "DELETE itab WHERE condition" and then do your "READ TABLE", that way you won´t worry for your data being out of your range
