Data Transfer between two internal tables

Former Member — Tue, 21 Aug 2007 19:59:40 GMT

Hi SDN,

If I have two internal tables itab_a and Itab_b and I want to copy a subset of itab_a to itab_b using a conditional statement, is it possible and how?

Second, what if I want to append the smaller internal table itab_b to itab_a, how would you do that.

My task is to take some of the rows from a into b, change one field and append back to a. So if a had 100 rows, now it would have 110.

Please help.

Thanks.

Saf.

LOOP AT ITAB_A.

IF ITAB_A-SOME_FIELD = SOME_VALUE.

MOVE-CORRESPONDING ITAB_A TO ITAB_B.

APPEND ITAB_B.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

"Second, what if I want to append the smaller internal table itab_b to itab_a, how would you do that."

Assuming that both tables have the same fields in them:

APPEND LINES OF ITAB_B[] TO ITAB_A[].
