Hi

It means:-

if t_kna1 is initial - t_kna1 (field or table) is empty.

if t_kna1 is not initial - t_kna1 (field or table) is not empty.

The IF statement uses the expression t_KNA1 IS INITIAL to find out whether ITAB is empty.

if t_kna1 is not initial means that Internal table has some records in it

and t_kna1 is initial means int table has no records in it

[rainer_hbenthal]

it means that you type this statement in the editor, position the cursor on it and then press F1. After that read the online help.

Hi,

t_tab initial means Empty structure

t_tab not initial means contant in that structure

T_tab[] initial means empty table body.

T_tab[] not initial mean contant in the body of table...

Hi,

if t_kna1 is initial. 

Assuming that t_kna1 internal table doesnot contain any values.

if t_kna1 is not initial.

Assuming that t_kna1 internal table is filled up with some values.

Thanks,

Sriram POnna.
