how to export/import internal table to memory ?

Former Member — Wed, 06 Feb 2013 06:51:02 GMT

i am trying to export/import an internal table from memory but without sucsses,

i am writing this code

**** include Z_IMPORT

data: memory_address(40) value 'TABLE'.

data: itab_tmp type table of pa0001.

EXPORT itab_tmp TO MEMORY ID memory_address.

******************************************************************************************************************************

**** include Z_EXPORT

data: memory_address(40) value 'TABLE'.

data: itab_tmp type table of pa0001.

IMPORT itab TO itab_tmp FROM MEMORY ID memory_address.

Does any one had an idea why there is no data in itab_tmp after the import ?

thanks Ami

hi ami,

in zexport you need to submit the report zimport then only itab will have entry...

hope it helps,

Vinoth.

Hi, Guest I think you are making wrong syntax.

EXPORT <target> FROM <val1> TO MEMORY ID <memory_ID>

IMPORT <target> TO <val2> FROM MEMORY ID <memory_ID>

From here "<target>" is where the contents stored in the memory id.
