Hi,

checkout this Program:-

type-pools : abap. 
  field-symbols: <dyn_table> type standard table, 
               <dyn_wa>, 
               <dyn_field>. 
  data: dy_table type ref to data, 
      dy_line  type ref to data, 
      xfc type lvc_s_fcat, 
      ifc type lvc_t_fcat. 
  selection-screen begin of block b1 with frame. 
parameters: p_table(30) type c default 'T001'. 
selection-screen end of block b1. 
  start-of-selection. 
    perform get_structure. 
<b>  perform create_dynamic_itab. </b>   
  perform get_data. 
  perform write_out. 
  form get_structure. 
  data : idetails type abap_compdescr_tab, 
       xdetails type abap_compdescr. 
  data : ref_table_des type ref to cl_abap_structdescr. 
  * Get the structure of the table. 
  ref_table_des ?=  
      cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_name( p_table ). 
  idetails[] = ref_table_des->components[]. 
    loop at idetails into xdetails. 
    clear xfc. 
    xfc-fieldname = xdetails-name . 
    xfc-datatype = xdetails-type_kind. 
    xfc-inttype = xdetails-type_kind. 
    xfc-intlen = xdetails-length. 
    xfc-decimals = xdetails-decimals. 
    append xfc to ifc. 
  endloop. 
  endform. 
  form create_dynamic_itab. 
  * Create dynamic internal table and assign to FS 
  call method cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table 
               exporting 
                  it_fieldcatalog = ifc 
               importing 
                  ep_table        = dy_table. 
    assign dy_table->* to <dyn_table>. 
  * Create dynamic work area and assign to FS 
  create data dy_line like line of <dyn_table>. 
  assign dy_line->* to <dyn_wa>. 
  endform. 
    
  form get_data. 
  * Select Data from table. 
  select * into table <dyn_table> 
             from (p_table). 
  endform. 
   Write out data from table. 
  loop at <dyn_table> into <dyn_wa>. 
    do. 
      assign component  sy-index   
         of structure <dyn_wa> to <dyn_field>. 
      if sy-subrc <> 0. 
        exit. 
      endif. 
      if sy-index = 1. 
        write:/ <dyn_field>. 
      else. 
        write: <dyn_field>. 
      endif. 
    enddo. 
  endloop.

Hi anil,

An internal table,

whose fields, data types,

are only specified/know at the runtime,

and not while creating the program

--- this is called dynamic internal table

1.

For this purpose,

in my program,

there is an INDEPENDENT FORM

whose inputs are

TABLE NAME / STRUCTURE NAME

and from those, it consructs dynamic table.

2. Here is the program.

the dynamic table name will be

<DYNTABLE>.

3. U can use this program (FORM in this program)

to generate any kind of internal table

by specifying TABLE NAME .

4.

REPORT abc.

*----

---

COMPULSORY

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <dyntable> TYPE ANY TABLE.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <dynline> TYPE ANY.

DATA: lt TYPE lvc_t_fcat.

DATA: ls TYPE lvc_s_fcat.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fld> TYPE ANY.

DATA : fldname(50) TYPE c.

*----

---

parameters : iname LIKE dd02l-tabname.

*----

---

START-OF-SELECTION.

*----

---

PERFORM

PERFORM mydyntable USING lt.

BREAK-POINT.

*----

---

• INDEPENDENT FORM

*----

---

FORM mydyntable USING ptabname.

*----

---

Create Dyn Table From FC

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_data> TYPE REF TO data.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_1>.

FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_2> TYPE ANY TABLE.

DATA: lt_data TYPE REF TO data.

data : lt TYPE lvc_t_fcat .

DATA : ddfields LIKE ddfield OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

*----

---

CALL FUNCTION 'DD_NAMETAB_TO_DDFIELDS'

EXPORTING

tabname = iname

TABLES

ddfields = ddfields.

.

*----

---

CONSTRUCT FIELD LIST

LOOP AT ddfields.

ls-fieldname = ddfields-fieldname.

APPEND ls TO lt.

ENDLOOP.

ASSIGN lt_data TO <fs_data>.

CALL METHOD cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table

EXPORTING

it_fieldcatalog = lt

IMPORTING

ep_table = <fs_data>

EXCEPTIONS

generate_subpool_dir_full = 1

OTHERS = 2.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

ENDIF.

*----

---

Assign Dyn Table To Field Sumbol

ASSIGN <fs_data>->* TO <fs_1>.

ASSIGN <fs_1> TO <fs_2>.

ASSIGN <fs_1> TO <dyntable>.

ENDFORM. "MYDYNTABLE
