hi,

Hi Manjula,

Try using this:

1. For an internal table.

Data: v_count TYPE i.

DESCRIBE TABLE i_itab LINES v_count.

Now v_count contains the number of rows in the table i_itab.

2. For a database table.

After u write a select on a database table. Check the value of sy-dbcnt. This contains the number of records fetched from the select query.

Hi Manjula,

here a short example:

tables: marc.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FS>.

data: begin of itab occurs 0.

include structure marc.

data: end of itab.

*

data: column like sy-index.

data: row like sy-tabix.

*

DO 1000 TIMES.

ASSIGN COMPONENT SY-INDEX OF STRUCTURE Itab TO <FS>.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0. EXIT. ENDIF.

column = column + 1.

ENDDO.

write: / column.

*

select * from marc into table itab up to 100 rows.

describe table itab lines row.

write: / row.

*

select count( * ) from marc.

write: / sy-dbcnt.

hope it helps.
