Hi,

Check the following code:

report ztx0803.

data: begin of names,

name1 like ztxkna1-name1,

name2 like ztxkna1-name2,

end of names.

data: begin of cust_info,

number(10) type n,

nm like names, "like a field string

end of cust_info.

cust_info-number = 15.

cust_info-nm-name1 = 'Jack'.

cust_info-nm-name2 = 'Gordon'.

write: / cust_info-number,

cust_info-nm-name1,

cust_info-nm-name2.

Hope this helps.

Reward if helpful.

Regards,

Sipra

Hello,

The structure of a data object can be an

elementary field, a

structure, or an

internal table.

Structures and internal tables are complex data obejcts. Since it is possible to combine structures and internal tables in any way, we can can also make a general distinction between different types of structures, internal tables, and data structures.

A structure can be:

A simple structure (as opposed to complex structures). A simple structure is a structure with elementary components.

A nested structure. A nested structure is a structure containing one or more further structures.

A deep structure. Deep structures are structures that contain an internal table as a component, either directly or indirectly).

Here is the sample program with nested structures

REPORT structure1.

TYPES: BEGIN OF name,

title(5) TYPE c,

first_name(10) TYPE c,

last_name(10) TYPE c,

END OF name.

TYPES: BEGIN OF mylist,

client TYPE name,

number TYPE i,

END OF mylist.

DATA list TYPE mylist.

list-client-title = 'Lord'.

list-client-first_name = 'Howard'.

list-client-last_name = 'Mac Duff'.

list-number = 1.

WRITE list-client-title.

WRITE list-client-first_name.

WRITE list-client-last_name.

WRITE / 'Number'.

WRITE list-number.
