Hi,

This will get the values from the table INDX with the parameter id value in the field W_ID and store in the variable G_LAST_RUN..

GO to SE16 give the table name INDX

In the field SRTFD enter the value in the field W_ID..

If you press execute you will find an entry...

Thanks,

Naren

You are importing the value stored in the variable g_last_run from the Database Cluster CS with the id in w_id into your Program at runtime. This value would have gotten gets into the database cluster with an earlier EXPORT to DATABASE statement either in the sam eor a different program. The EXP/IMP statements are very useful in comparing runtime values.
