u mean to say initialize means clear the values...

if u want to clear 1 record based on condition...

loop at itab.

itab-field1 = space.

itab-field2 = space.

modify itab index sy-tabix.

endloop.

u want to clear table contents based on condition...

refresh itab.

clear itab.

Hi Vamshi,

you can take the,

tablename-fieldname(for char) = value for character

tablename-fieldname(for curr) = value for currency

append the table.

As i understood you want to clear only selected fileds not the complet record..

create a Field symobl the loop at the table.. inside the loop check the condtion the just clear the filed.

example: you have itab type mara.

then

FIELD-SYMOBOLS <FS_WA_ITAB> TYPE MARA.

LOOP AT ITAB ASSIGNING <FS_WA_ITAB>.

IF X = XXX (YOUR CONDITION)

CLEAR: <FS_WA_ITAB>-FIELD2,

<FS_WA_ITAB>-FIELD3. (If u want to clear only filed2 and field3)

clear <FS_WA_ITAB>. (if you want to cleatr the complete record)

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

Why iam suggestin the filed-symobol is.. it is direcltly work on internal table body so u no need to update the table agian

Please Close this thread.. when u r problem is solved
