Hi,

there is no direct sort command to achieve this type of result. Though you can do it and fill your internal table in the loop.

Transfer the data of romm_no = 40 to another internal table and sort it by name.

loop at first_table where romm_no <> 40.

fill new table here

at last.

loop at second_table ( which onatin record of room number 40 )

fill new table here for sorted records of room number 40

endloop.

endat.

endloop.

thanks,

Kamesh

Add a column containing the sequence the rooms will show, the sort by the sequence and then by the name

1 53 Anil

2 40 Michael

2 40 Alex

2 40 Matheaw

2 40 Ringo

You need to have 2 tables of same type.

Suppose 1st table is IT_TAB and the sorted data will be in IT_SORT.

it_sort = it_tab.

sort it_sort by name.

Loop at it_tab.

it_sort-room = it_tab-room.

modify it_tab.

endloop.

This will keep the room no. as it is but name will be sorted.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I would suggest to change the table type description, splitting roomnumber and prename in two fields. Afterwards it will me much easier to sort the table by several fields.
