Hi. My codes below (which uses BINARY SEARCH) gives an error message.

Any idea why? thanks.

SORT ITAB_REF0011 by LAND1. " Sort the table by LAND1
LOOP AT ITAB_VAL.
DATA: TEMP LIKE LINE OF ITAB_REF0011.
SORT ITAB_REF0011.
READ TABLE ITAB_REF0011 WITH KEY " Changed WITH TABLE to WITH KEY
LAND1 = ITAB_VAL-ABTEI
BINARY SEARCH.

Hi all, thanks for the help. really appreciate it.

Another question is, if we use BINARY SEARCH on an internal table, do we have to sort the internal table first?

[Former Member]

read table should have INTO.

because u have to retrieve the information into any variable then only it will work

[Former Member]

Hi,

If you dont want to retrive data

just use transporting no-fields.

in additions

now you can check the sy-subrc .

yes,

u need to sort based on the fields that u are using in read statement, else the result need not be accurate

[Former Member]

yes it's compulsary if u want to use binary search u should use sort before using read statement.

read statement must have into ,

u just check it out
