hi all,

just a little doubt.

while debugging i reached a point of statement ..

"system-call ict "

i couldnt debug this call and directly got the output.

The only thing you can try is to switch on system debugging, but I don't think this will work for these kind of calls. On that level debugging is normally forbidden.

System debugging is only set for debugging ABAP system programs, while SYSTEM-CALLS are processed on Kernel level.

P.S. Switch on system debugging: While debugging, go menu->settings (I believe)->switch system debugging on / off.

System call is calling code written in C Language at Kernel level.. You can not debug that using ABAP debugger.
