Need help in cluster table concept

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I need help in cluster table concept.

I have a table with 2 fields as name and text.

In field text i should be able to store longtext. It can be more than 5000 or 10000 chars of text.

1) In order to store that, can i give the domain for text field as

string. will that work.

2) If that does not work, can i achieve through cluster table ?

3) Could you please tell me the steps to create cluster table and also how to insert and select the data from cluster table.

Here, for me cluster table is to just store the longtext of above table.

Your help will be appreciated and also awarded with points.

Thanks in Advance.

Before creating cluster tables, we must create a table cluster first. Table cluster is a special table type in ABAP dictionary. The data from different tables can be stored in a table cluster. A table cluster should be used exclusively for storing internal control information (screen sequences, program parameters, temporary data, continuous text such as documentation). Data of commercial relevance is usually stored in transparent tables.
