HI,

structure will not contain any data.

thats why u shouldn't write select statements to get the data from the structures.

Hi,

You cannot retrieve data from a structure using a select statement. The only way u can get data is by copying contents to another structure.

For ex.

ZKAEP_COAC = KAEP_COAC.

Now you have the contents in your Z structure.

You may have to debug the program in the standard transaction to identify from which table this structure is getting populated. You could use St05 for that.

Thanks..
