LOOP in LDB

PS_1978 — Mon, 03 May 2010 07:35:43 GMT

Hi,

I am debugging a custom program, which is a copy of standarad one. This used logical database.

In END-OF-SELECTION, I see a LOOP statement without internal table name. But the values are coming to the workarea T. I would like to know how the data is populated in work area T.

Logical databse used in the program is, KDF.

Please help me in understanding this.

Best Regards,

Phani

Hi Phani,

This is a loop on an ABAP extract. Please read the documentation:

Hi,

Actually it is not - this is why I personally avoid extracts. This is something which was heavily used in the R/2 - in newer SAP programs I rarely saw this.

Maybe in the debugger menu under Goto -> System you might find some information that there is an extract (there can only be one per program) but nothing more.

I might be wrong here (for as I wrote I am not actively using this) so if anybody knows a bit more I would be happy to stand corrected.

Regards, Gerd

You can look at report (automatically generated by SAP) SAPDBKDF.
