Basically the above statements are used to pass data between two programs.

You pass the data to indx database in the calling prg using EXPORT statement and can read it in the called program via IMPORT.

Also, please note that the table structure should be same in both the abaps.

import and export are basically use for communication between to entities.

Here data is imported and exported with db index and this we can refer from memory ID .The structure of importing and exporting internal table must be same.

Hi silpa,

1. This kind of import export

comes into picture

when CLUSTER tables are involved.

2. since data is stored in encoded/raw format

in cluster tables,

we cannot directly use select.

3. Hence, such IMPORT comes into picture,

which appropriately reads the table,

converts the data in the required format,

and provides back to us in the internal table.

regards,
