remove entries

Former Member — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 08:22:25 GMT

Hello Abap Gurus!

Pls help me to do the following:

Any internal table has many entries of messages

with various Error types like S Success, E Error, W Warning, I Info, A Abort

and various Id s and Numbers.

The goal is to delete all entries where match with

Type EQ 'E' and Id EQ 'BA' and Number EQ '162'

How does this solution look with Abap ?

Thx

ertas

perhaps you are talking about the messages recieved in internal after BDC.

if yes then try and use this

loop at IT_MSG_TAB.

if <ur condition>

move-corresponding in wa_msg_tab to wa_copy.

append wa_copy to it_copy.

endif.

endloop.

delete it_msg_tab from IT_copy.

regards,

kushagra

I did the coding: LOOP AT ... WHERE ... Important here is the WHERE condition, which means the lines which are not suitable for the condition, won't be processed. This case there is a delete statement inside the LOOP, that means, only those lines will be deleted, which get through the LOOP condition.

On the other hand, if I would like to delete all lines of an internal table, I would simply code CLEAR itab[]
