Table structuree inside a Internal table

bharath_mohan2 — Fri, 01 May 2009 11:12:26 GMT

Hi all,

I have an internal table declared with a table structure inside it. i have the declration as below


DATA: begin of itab1,
           field1,
           field2,
           end of itab1.

          begin of Itab2,
          field3
          itab type table of itab1
          end of itab2.

Now how will i access filed1 of Itab1 from itab2 ?? what is the syntax for it.

I tried itab2-itab1-field1 but it gives me a error.

Regards,

Bharath

Hi,

DATA: begin of itab1,
           field1,
           field2,
           end of itab1.
 
          begin of Itab2,
          field3
          itab type table of itab1
          end of itab2.

DATA : itab3 type table of itab1.

" Declare the internal of type itab1and pass the itab2-itab data to itab3 and process itab3.
itab3[] = itab2-itab[]

LOOP AT ITAB3 INTO ITAB1.
WRITE:/ ITAB1-FIELD1.
ENDLOOP.

Hi,

Instead of declaring a new table type and extending memory with the same records, you can do it this way also...

loop at itab2-itab into itab1.
  write itab1-field1.
  write itab1-field2.
endloop.
