export tables in custom function module

Former Member — Wed, 28 Nov 2007 19:16:18 GMT

I am creating a custom function module and want to return a table of contacts i_contacts.

In the global data area I created a structure

TYPES: BEGIN OF t_contacts,

prsnr TYPE knvk-prsnr,

contactinfo TYPE adr6-smtp_addr,

END OF t_contacts.

And then in my interface I am trying to include as a table

i_contacts like t_contacts

But it keeps saying t_contacts not defined. Does that mean I have to define t_contacts as a global structure in SE11. Isnt there another way to define an internal table in the interface. Please advice.

Hi..

Declare like this..

Data: i_contacts type standard table of t_contacts.

i_contacts like t_contacts does not work because t_contacts is not an internal table with header line.

Hope this helps.

I am not doing a data declratation in the program

I want to do declaration in the interface of the function module

In the interface also you can declare the same way.

Hope it helps.

Create one structure in SE11 like t_contacts

then use that structure in SE37.

Thanks

create in SE11. You cannot declare and use within the function module.
