Hi.... Friend...

Iam having one module pool program....while running the program transaction Iam generating and updating some field entreis into one table...

Now it is working correcty... but previously some records are updated....with out having one field entry, so now that field was empty for those records in the table..

Hi,

What date you want to insert into those empty fields ??

The date on which those entries had been made ??

If yes , then how ur going to get the date on which those entries are made??

[naveen_inuganti2]

yes..... it is possible to to know that date... because one more field also going to update with the same entry....

previously also that was correctly updated where our date is not updated?

so with help of that field we can find and pass that date into one variable...

?????

it depends if the field which is empty is a key field then system will not allow you to change the data in that case only option is to delete the entry.

if this is not the case then you can update the fields using this method. this is risky method so please be carefull.

1. goto se16 write the table name press enter then put selection criteria and execute (F8). then you will see the records in the table.

2. double click the row you want to update.

3. then write /h in the command field to activate debug mode.

4. then press enter the program will open in debug mode.

5. in the fields write CODE and change its value to EDIT

and press the change button to apply the value then press F8 it will open all fields for edition.
