native sql && BUT000

[Former Member]

In my function I am using the following code:

DATA: lv_message TYPE string.
DATA: sql_error  TYPE REF TO cx_sy_native_sql_error.
DATA: dbcursor   TYPE c.

TRY.
  EXEC SQL.
    open :dbcursor for
    SELECT partner
    FROM but000
    WHERE UPPER(name_first) LIKE :name_first
  ENDEXEC.
  CATCH cx_sy_native_sql_error INTO sql_error.
    lv_message = sql_error->get_text( ).
    MESSAGE lv_message TYPE 'E'.
ENDTRY.

This is giving the error message: "You tried to work with the name of a table or view that does not exist in the database".

Same error message occurs when I add the declaration: TABLES but000.

How can this be solved?

Kind regards,

Hi,

this is what the documentation says:

Open the database cursor C1 in the database table SFLIGHT for a SELECT statement 

DATA: C1 TYPE CURSOR. 

OPEN CURSOR C1 FOR 
     SELECT * FROM SFLIGHT WHERE CARRID = 'LH '.

So, you have an error when opening the database cursor, in the way how you declared the instruction.

Is this a syntax error? What version of R/3 are you on?

hi,

just check from SE11 if the table but000 exists....

also just check if you have declared the variable

first_name in the data declaration...

Thanks,
