Hi Rolf,

Create a table parameter in your FM with a structure containing a single field of type string.

then use this table in your FM.

In the tables tab of the fm buider(se37),

you can simply use

itab type string

if it doesn't work,

you can use

itab type standard table.

Ravi

and checkout if it works

Thanks.

But in the FM builder in tab 'Tables', i enter 'type' and associated type 'string' and while trying to save or activate it gives a message 'type string is unknown' and the FM is not activated.

Thanks. It didn't work though. Had to create a table to use as a type. Thanks for all the answers.

you can use import parameter of type "STRING_TABLE" where string table is a table type . (array of string)

<b>strings type STRING_TABLE .</b>
