Most commonly used:

DELETE itab [FROM wa] [INDEX idx] [WHERE <cond>].

LOOP AT ITAB .

......

........// some processing

.......

IF SY_SUBRC NE 0.

DELETE <ITAB> index sy-tabix.

// this statement deletes the particular row from internal table

ENDLOOP.

Can you please specify the complete request as sy-subrc <> 0 does not make sense...

Sy-Subrc is a system parameter which is gets a value depending on the performed operation. So you just can't that using it as a where condition.

Are you trying to do something like the below ...

loop at itab1.

read table itab2 with key f1 = itab1-f1.

if sy-subrc <> 0.

delete itab1.

endif.

endloop.

Instead if you know the line numbers of row you want to delete then directly write as :

DELETE <ITAB> [FROM <Line N1>] [TO <Line N2>] [WHERE <condition>]. //Deletes multiple line in internal table

DELETE ITAB Index<N1> //N1 is line/row number

Hi Veera

Use as per the syntax provided in my earlier post when SY-SUBRC ne 0 orelse provide your code for a better solution.

Kind Regards
