How to view structure data?

former_member212731 — Tue, 24 Apr 2007 14:01:13 GMT

I wanted to view structure SOS_OBJLST data. Data tables data could be viewed eg. with transactions SE16, SE17. Is there available these kind of transactions to see similar way structure data?

Structures do not hold any data.

They get the data only at run time .

Data will not be stored in a structure. The data gets stored in a database table.

Hi Kuki,

A structure is some what a snap shot of a data base table... Which means it does not store or contain data by itself.

Hence, you cannot and dont have an option to view the data of a structure.

Hello

A structure is a data structure that may or may not contain data and ONLY at runtime.

You could find a place in the code where your structure is used and set a breakpoint. Then use the debugger to see the data that the program has populated the structure with.

Structure won't contain any data .

It contains data at runtime only.

Please specify your requirement clearly.

hello MAYANK.

i ll help you out. follow this

let me tell you the basic diffrence between table and structure

Table : stores value.

structure : doesnot store value. it is just a skeleton for the table.

to identify any field in structure from which table it is picking.

go to se84 tcode choose ABAP DICTIONARY->CHOOSE FIELDS->CHOOSE STRUCTURE FIELDS---> PUT YOUR FIELD NAMES -->EXECUTE

you will get all the tables from which structure is made of.
