EXPORT an internal table and IMPORT an internal table in another program

[Former Member]

I am trying to EXPORT an internal table to memory and then from another program, IMPORT the internal table. Here is a sample of my code. I cannot figure out why it does not work. The table I try to import is initial (empty).

PROGRAM ZEXPORT.

DATA: lt_textline type TABLE OF tline.

CONSTANTS: c_memid_text (60) TYPE c VALUE '%%ZTEXT%%'.

DO 10 TIMES.

u2026..

APPEND .. TO lt_textline.

ENDDO.

EXPORT lt_textline[] TO MEMORY ID c_memid_text.

PROGRAM ZIMPORT.

DATA: lt_textline type TABLE OF tline.

CONSTANTS: c_memid_text (60) TYPE c VALUE '%%ZTEXT%%'.

IMPORT lt_textline[] FROM MEMORY ID c_memid_text._As always, points for useful help._

Hi,

Try:

EXPORT lt_textline from lt_textline TO MEMORY ID c_memid_text.

IMPORT lt_textline to lt_textline FROM MEMORY ID c_memid_text.

This will work.

wa_mara TYPE mara.

• Selection Screen

• Select data

SELECT matnr ernam FROM mara INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS

OF TABLE i_mara WHERE matnr IN s_matnr.

• Export Internal table to memory ID

EXPORT i_mara[] TO MEMORY ID 'MID1'.

• Display report

LOOP AT i_mara INTO wa_mara.

WRITE: / wa_mara-matnr, wa_mara-ernam.

ENDLOOP.

2. Import Internal table From memory Id
