Dynamic Internal table

[Former Member]

Hi Everyone,

I am creating dynamic internal table in a loop. I need to retain the created internal tables even after loop. Is it possible, If yes please let me know the way.

Hi

I guess you are creating a dynamic internal table

for each entry of an internal table(within a loop). Do

this via field-symbols, create internal table, do the

processing, unassign it so you can use the same

field-symbol for the next entry in the orginal internal

table.

Kind Regards

You can do something like this :

<b>Create a global fieldssymbol</b>

FIELD-SYMBOLS :

<lt_data> TYPE table. " Data to display

• Create internal table

CREATE DATA lp_table TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF (p_table)

WITH NON-UNIQUE DEFAULT KEY.

*Assign the internal table created to field symbol

ASSIGN lp_table->* TO <lt_data>.

i DON'T THINK YOU NEED A TABLE OF FIELD-SYmBOLS... but you need a table of data references.

I'm not sure if it will work something like:

types: begin of ty_stuff,

tabname type tabname,

Tdref TYPE REF TO data,

end of ty_stuff.

data w_stuff type ty_stuff.

data t_stuff type table of ty_stuff.

w_stuff-tabname = 'MARA'.

CREATE DATA W_STUFF-tdref TYPE TABLE OF

(w_stuff-tabname).

APPEND W_STUFF TO T_STUFF.

w_stuff-tabname = 'EKPO'.

CREATE DATA W_STUFF-tdref TYPE TABLE OF

(w_stuff-tabname).

Then to access any of the tables (to put data in them or read them etc)

read table t_stuff with key tabname = 'MARA' INTO W_STUFF.

ASSIGN W_STUFF-tdref->* TO <tab>.
