yoru declaration doesnt seem right . Try this.

data: Begin of itab occurs 0, " By default it is created with header line.

include zbc_table1,

end of itab.

- This will work.

HI,

I dont find any problem with your code, except the select stmt:

select * from zbc_table1 <b>into</b> table itab.

If this does not work, try "into corresponding fields of table itab".

Hi,

I believe this error would have come in the SQL.

Check this example..In the internal table ITAB there is only one field MATNR..But in the select I used *. Then I got the syntax error "Itab" not long enough..

DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,

MATNR TYPE MATNR,

END OF ITAB.

SELECT * FROM MARA INTO TABLE ITAB.

To fix the error..

Give the fields that you have listed in the internal table OR use INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF.

Solution

-

---

SELECT MATNR FROM MARA INTO TABLE ITAB.

OR

SELECT * FROM MARA INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE ITAB.

syntactically its correct,but u have used 'to table itab' instead of 'into table itab'....

data: itab like zbc_table1 occurs 0 with header line..

select * from zbc_table1 <b>to(replace with into</b> table itab.

so...it will be <b>select * from zbc_table1 into table itab</b>

data: itab like zbc_table1 occurs 0 with header line..

select * from zbc_table1 <b>INTO</b> table itab.

Thats all i think its over. Please close it.
