Internal table

[Former Member]

Hi,

For example i have around 200 records in the first internal table. And in my second internal table i have 30 records. These 30 records are available in my first internal table also. Now i need to delete the remaining 170 records from the first internal table. The common field in these table is OBJNR. Based on this i need to delete the records.

just try the following code

<b>loop at itab2.

read table itab1 with key objnr = itab2-objnr.

if sy-subrc <> 0.

delete itab1 index sy-tabix.

else.

continue.

endif.

Hi,

I tried with the logic provided, but still i am unable to delete the records from the first internal table.

Harita,

This won't help since itab 2 has only 30 records code will delete only 30 records from itab1 which are not in itab2.

Thanks,

Assume itab1 with 200 records and itab2 with 30 records.

Add one field " flag type c" to structure of itab1.

Now try below code:

sort itab1 by objnr.

loop at itab2 into wa_itab2.

read table itab1 into wa_itab1 with key objnr =wa_itab2-objnr binary search.

if sy-subrc = 0.

wa_itab1-flag = 'X'.

modify itab1 from wa_itab1.

endif.

endloop.

delete itab1 where flag = 'X'.

I hope it helps.

hi Ram,

You can use read statement to retrieve data from first internal table comparing with the second internal table field using loop at and append that line to third internal table(new one). Then you will have all the data containing data for your requirement.

Hi Ram,

Here is the simple solution,

loop at itab1.

loop at itab2 where objnr <> itab1-objnr.

delete itab1.

endloop.

endloop.

Hi Ram,

Check code below for this,

say IT1 - itab with 200 records ( Add one more field in this itab say indicator. )

IT2 - itab with 30 records

<b>loop at it2.

read table it1 with key objnr = it2-objnr.

if sy-subrc = 0.

it1-indicator = 'X'.

modify it1 index sy-tabix.

endif.

endloop.

delete it1 where indicator <> 'X'.</b>

This will loop only for 30 rec in IT2 .

Hope this helps you.

Enjoy SAP.
