compare two database table

Former Member — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 10:05:10 GMT

I have a requirement in the selection screen input as table1 and table2

table1 and tabl2 both tables have the same fields but the data is different suppose

table1  pernr (key field) = 12
          mark  = x
table2 pernr (key field) = 12
         mark = blank

so there is a difference in the data and difference should be appended to internal table and show in the output

note it has to be compared with the key field

the table name will change in the slection screen
