Get a list of the technical details of a table

Hello everybody

I am trying to loop on all structure's fields of table T000 (as an example) and get the technical names of the fields and their attributes. I found some code in an old post but it is erroring out as tabname is not recognized.

Any help is appreciated.

Here is the original post : https://answers.sap.com/questions/2284467/looping-on-abap-structure%27s-fields.html

Thanks

Omar

In the question linked one of the replies says: "oh..and replace all reference to dd07l with dd03". I guess that would solve this specific issue?

That question is from 2007 though and so many things changed in ABAP since then. We have RTTS now, for example: https://help.sap.com/doc/abapdocu_750_index_htm/7.50/en-US/abenrtti.htm

Jelena- Thank you for taking the time to answer this trivial question 🙂

I appreciated the heads up about the timing of the old post and its relevance compared to RTTS.
