Export and Import

[Former Member]

hi Gurus,

Could you please explain what is the exact syntax to use export to memory id and import from memory id. Could you give me an example code explaining what the argument are.

Thanks

Sure, there are a couple ways to use this statement. The following is how I usually use it and it seems to work well in all cases.

Data:  it001 type table of t001.
data: xt001 type t001.

select * into table it001 from t001.

export it001 = it001 to memory id 'ZRICHTEST'.

clear it001. refresh it001.

import it001 = it001 from memory id 'ZRICHTEST'.

loop at it001 into xt001.
write:/ xt001-bukrs, xt001-butxt.
endloop.

You can also use it like so.

data:  it001 type table of t001.
data: xt001 type t001.

select * into table it001 from t001.

<b>export  it001 to memory id 'ZRICHTEST'.</b>

clear it001. refresh it001.
<b>
import  it001 from memory id 'ZRICHTEST'.</b>

loop at it001 into xt001.
  write:/ xt001-bukrs, xt001-butxt.
endloop.

Simple form:
EXPORT <variables>/<internal tables> MEMORY ID 'MID'.

IMPORT <variables>/<internal tables> FROM MEMORY 
ID 'MID'.


Note that the datatype and names of the variables and 
internal tables need to be same in both programs.
