Checking internal table

Former Member — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 06:24:51 GMT

Hi Experts,

i have a scenario like this:

move a to b.

But before doing this i have to check whether 'a' is contained in the it1 internal table's field val.( ie 'a' is contained in it1-val).

without looping is there any method.

Points will be rewarded.

search 'a' for that field.

use search comand and chk with sy-subrc.

if it1 is an internal table with 1 record... then

read it1 index 1.

now, search a in it1-val

if exists move to b.

if it1 is an internal table with more entries, then u have to do a loop....

try this

Read itab into wa.with key itab-val = 'a'.

if sy-subrc = 0.

valuer is in itab

else

move a to b.

endif.

hope it clears ur doubt
