some times during codeing u might get a req where u need to select some set, in such cases u can just build a range there and say XXX in Range R1.

SELECT-OPTIONS can be used with the CHECK field IN ... statement. RANGES cannot.

RANGES have to be declared when you want to put IF condition against a group of records.

suppose you wanna say IF a = 3 or a = 5 or a = 7 or a =11

you can do

ranges xxx for XXX

xxx-sign = 'I'

xxx-option = 'EQ'

xxx-low = 3

append xxx

xxx-sign = 'I'

xxx-option = 'EQ'

xxx-low = 5

append xxx

xxx-sign = 'I'

xxx-option = 'EQ'

xxx-low = 7

append xxx

xxx-sign = 'I'

xxx-option = 'EQ'

xxx-low = 11

append xxx

IF a IN xxx.

logic

ENDIF.

you would not like to create select options for the above requirement cuz then it will come on the selection screen.
