Hi Lahcen,

To delete the multiple lines in internal table while debugging you need to switch into new debugger available in ECC 6.0 or upper.

After entering into new debugger you will see the tab TABLES in that there is sub-tab Table Contents. In that you can see the complete data in the internal table and we have option in the left side like grid to select the row.

Thanks,

download the table to a excel, then delete the entire table, then just add the required lines.

there is another way of doing this as well, if you are in latest patches of ECC, in debugger you can see a tab called script, here you can write a piece of code while debugging to change the content of the table.

Hi Guys,

Thank you very much for your fast replies.

i need to clarify my issue a bit.

Here is my case :

i have an internal table with 300 000 lines and i want to process 100 only.

my question is how to select at once the non desired rows and delete them instead of going one by one.

The excel suggestion is a good one but i cannnot upload the resulted excel back to the internal table in the debugger.

Thanks all

Why cant you filter it in your selection itself? you try to reduce your data by making condition or filter in selection.

This one of those one time action. this is unfortunately a production program and you cannot modify it for one time action.

That is why i am trying to do it in the debugger.

Thanks for your reply
