Hi,

short answer: you can't.

Long answer: an ABAP package contains lots of things: source code (reports, classes, function modules, includes...), data dictionary entries (data elements, domains, structures, table types...), database thingies (db tables, views), transactions, authorisation objects etc. pp. All of this actually resides in the ABAP DDIC (yes, even the source code), which is stored in DB tables.

The packages look like folders in Windows, but they are something different altogether.

Hope this helps, Joerg Wegener
