Hi ,

In OO you cannot have tables defined with header lines, so in OO its the same way you create tables in programs or FM without header lines. and also you cannot use LIKE statement in the OO ABAP, you could only use TYPE statement.

And about the place where you need to write the code, you should go to the METHOD and double click on the method where you will be displayed the ABAP editor.

Let me know if you face any problem still, else kindly close the thread.

Hi,

try to declare the work area type first


TYPES BEGIN OF ts_workarea.
TYPES field1 TYPE field1_type.
TYPES END OF ts_workarea.

Then define the table type:


TYPES tt_tabletype TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ts_workarea WITH DEFAULT KEY.

If you want to create a table type based on SE11 structure then try this:


TYPES tt_tabletype TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF zs_ddic_structure WITH DEFAULT KEY.

Now you can take this table type and use it for attributes or parameters.

More information can be found here: [The Statements TYPES and DATA|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/fc/eb2ff3358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm]

Hi kramer,

i provide you an example..

if suppose you need to create a table with fields vbeln, posnr then here it goes

types: begin of ty_tab,

vbeln type vbak-vbeln,

posnr type vbap-posnr,

end of ty_tab.

data:

fs_tab type ty_tab,

i_tab type table of ty_tab.

fs_tab will be the work area for the table i_tab.

so when you try appending a record in i_tab, populate fs_tab and use it .

append fs_tab to i_tab.

Let me know how it helped.

Hi Cosmo,

In OO programing there is no concept of the header line ... Instead of this create a Workarea of the same type.

if you want to define a parameter of a method as itab (table) then create a table type for your structure. Txn SE11, in data type field enter a name and click create, it will prompt you with options and choose the table type and within the definition use your structure.

On the way you handled points.

use the point system judiciously. you have given points (2) to both wrong answer as well as a close to right answer.

For Others who tried to answer

Please, read the question thrice before attempting to answer and if you dont know or if you are not sure, do not mislead .
