problem in using read statement.

[Former Member]

i am using the read statement as follows :

read table tekpo with key werks = '1001'.

it is not reading the corresponding record.

though it reads or not it is returning the sy-subrc value 0.

plz let me know why it is happening as soon as possible.

points will be awarded.

Hi,

The READ statement looks good..

read table tekpo with key werks = '1001'.

The sy-subrc will be 0 only if it finds a corresponding record.

Do you want all the records??what exactly is your requirement..

Thanks,

Hi Srinivas rao,

You can use this example program and make the changes in your program as well:

DATA: BEGIN OF LINE,

COL1 TYPE I,

COL2 TYPE I,

END OF LINE.

DATA ITAB LIKE SORTED TABLE OF LINE WITH UNIQUE KEY COL1.

FIELD-SYMBOLS <FS> LIKE LINE OF ITAB.

DO 4 TIMES.

LINE-COL1 = SY-INDEX.

LINE-COL2 = SY-INDEX ** 2.

APPEND LINE TO ITAB.

ENDDO.

READ TABLE ITAB WITH TABLE KEY COL1 = 2 ASSIGNING <FS>.

<FS>-COL2 = 100.

READ TABLE ITAB WITH TABLE KEY COL1 = 3 ASSIGNING <FS>.

DELETE ITAB INDEX 3.

IF <FS> IS ASSIGNED.

WRITE '<FS> is assigned!'.

ENDIF.

LOOP AT ITAB ASSIGNING <FS>.

WRITE: / <FS>-COL1, <FS>-COL2.

ENDLOOP.

The output is:

1 1

2 100

4 16

I think you have satisfied.

Thanks and regards

The information is not sufficient to identify the problem. Please post the data declaration of the internal table and the code around the read statement.

Hi,

Sort your internal table by WERKS before reading it. Also use binary search addition with the read statement.

SORT tekpo BY werks.
READ TABLE tekpo
           WITH KEY werks = '1001' BINARY SEARCH.

hi...,

Your read statement is correct..

If sy-subrc eq 0, then for sure it has got at least one record satisfying the given condition...

first check whether u are checking the Sy-subrc immediately after this read statement or not...

<i>This code onli improves the performance...

sort tekpo by werks.

read table tekpo with key werks eq '1001' binary search.</i>

Your syntax is correct. So there should be an other problem or misunderstanding.

Could you put more of your source ?

If SY-SUBRC = 0. The program has found a record.
