Deletion

[kiran_k8]

Hi Folks,

Does the delete statement works only for internal tables?

I want to delete some entries from a ztable.

TABLES:ZMM__DER.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK B1 WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-001.

SELECT-OPTIONS: S_DATE FOR ZMM_DER-RUNDAT OBLIGATORY,

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK B1.

DELETE ZMM_DER WHERE RUNDAT IN S_DATE.

Hi,

Delete statement is used to delete records for both internal table and database table.

For Database table :

DELETE FROM zmm_der WHERE rundat IN s_date.

Sytax:

DELETE FROM dbtab WHERE cond.

Hi Kiran,

Delete statement is used to delete records for both internal table and database table.

For Database table :

PARAMETERS p_carrid TYPE sflight-carrid.

DELETE FROM sflight

WHERE carrid = p_carrid AND

fldate = sy-datum AND

seatsocc = 0.

For Internal table.

PARAMETERS p_carrid TYPE scarr-carrid.

DATA scarr_tab TYPE SORTED TABLE OF scarr

WITH UNIQUE KEY carrid.

SELECT *

FROM scarr

INTO TABLE scarr_tab.

READ TABLE scarr_tab WITH TABLE KEY carrid = p_carrid

TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

DELETE scarr_tab INDEX sy-tabix.

ENDIF.
