LIST_TO_MEMORY

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I want to save a report output and export it to a unix file. However, I don't want to use Submit.....Exporting_List_To_Memory... I want to use <b>LIST_TO_MEMORY</b>. Could someone giving me a short working example of how I would use this function correctly? Thank you in advance,

Jim

HEre is a pretty simply example.

report  zrich_0001.


data: ilist type table of  abaplist with header line.
data: istr type table of string with header line.

start-of-selection.

  do 10 times.
    write:/ sy-index.
  enddo.

  call function 'LIST_TO_MEMORY'
       exporting
            list_index = 0
       tables
            listobject = ilist
       exceptions
            empty_list = 1.

  call function 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
       tables
            listobject = ilist.

  call function 'LIST_TO_ASCI'
       tables
            listasci           = istr
            listobject         = ilist
       exceptions
            empty_list         = 1
            list_index_invalid = 2
            others             = 3.

  skip 5.
  write:/ 'The following has been pulled from memory'.
  loop at  istr.
    write:/ istr.

  endloop.

Hi Rich,

Thanks, but the function <b>'LIST_TO_ASCI'

tables

listasci = istr

listobject = ilist

exceptions

empty_list = 1

list_index_invalid = 2

others = 3.</b>

gives me an ABAP dump on the <b>istr</b> object - any idea why?

Post your code.

Rich,

I substituted an explicit internal table declaration for the istr table, i.e.,

data: begin of istr with header line,

line(1024),

end of istr.

This worked fine - thanks again and I the points will be rewarded.

Hi Jim,

Please try to replace this line.

DATA: ISTR TYPE TABLE OF STRING WITH HEADER LINE.

with this line.

DATA: ISTR TYPE TABLE OF LISTZEILE WITH HEADER LINE.
