include table in a structure ??

former_member5350 — Fri, 11 May 2007 12:20:06 GMT

hi friends,

i have a database table ztest - now what i want to do is, to load the contents of ztest into an internal table that has the same structure like ztest and 2 more fields. for me it would look like :

begin of str_tab,

itest like ztest,

a type string,

b type string,

end of str_tab.

does this work or do i have it to do another way ?

try this..

TYPES : BEGIN OF STR_TAB.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE ZTEST.
TYPES : A TYPE STRING,
        B TYPE STRING,
        END OF STR_TAB.

DATA : ITAB TYPE TABLE OF STR_TAB.

Here in the declaration take a structure indtead of table.

U can include the structure in ur itab declaration.

Otherwise take as:

types : begin of i_tab,

feild1 type ztable-field1, etc ur fields,

add 2 more fields,

end of i_tab.

Hi Clemens,

It is definitely OK to use the code in the way that u represented, but it would be even better if you could use INCLUDE STRUCTURE.

hi, i did it this way:

TYPES:

begin of str_tab,

itest like ztest,

a type string,

b type string,

end of str_tab.

DATA:

i_tab_ztest TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF str_tab,

now, what doesn't work is

ztest has a field kunnr and for binary search ( i want to search for an entry within ztest ) i want to sort the ztest structure by kunnr.

SORT i_tab_ztest BY itest-kunnr.

why or how does/n't this work ?

hi clemens,

you have to use this as,

sort i_tab_ztest by ztest-kunnr.

and it works,
