Hi.

This occurs because the type ty_planetypes that you defined have only one field from the saplane structure and in the select you´re are retrieving all the fields from the structure. Try to change the select command like follows:

SELECT planetype FROM saplane INTO TABLE list_of_planetypes.

or change the type to have the same structure from the DDIC.

You can use the select command as follow, too:

 SELECT * FROM saplane INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE list_of_planetypes.

But for performance reasons the first select it's recommended.
