<b>Hi Sultan,</b>

I dont know whether what exactly is a calling mode, but here is some piece of information, which might answer yopur question.

<b>In ABAP, there are 6 external and 9 internal sessions.</b> Now whatever transaction you key in, it starts a new external session. Say you execute SE38, and open an ABAP editor. Now thats an external session.

Now here in this session, you call some program, this goes and sits in first internal session for that external session. Now the called program, calls another program, this goes and sits in second internal session. Like this 8 calls are possible with one call calling the other.

<b>Hence these 9 internal sessions, stay in a STACK.</b>

So i feel there can be at max. 9 calling modes :).

<b><The information stated above is best to my knowledge, if any one has some more information to share then please let us know too >.</b>

<b>Thanks and regards,

RAVI :).</b>
