Hi,

Here is my question:

How does ranges types work.

I came across this code:

ranges: hrs for t512t-lgart

ls_range LIKE t512t-lgart,

*Fill constant values in range

ls_range-sign = 'I'.

ls_range-option = 'EQ'.

*Load range tables with preliminary values

move-corresponding ls_range to hrs.

I dont got this..Can you explain how sign and option works..what is the purpose behind it

Sign means Include and Exclude

Option for example can be all operators like GE (>=), LE (<=), BT (between), EQ (=) etc.

HI,

In Ranges you hane High and Low values.

Sign = I Or E

'I' Means the the Data be fetched is will include the High and Low value

E Exlude the Values.

Option Can be EQ , GE , GT LT Etc.

Hello Deepan,

Ranges have same structure as 'Select Options'. The difference is that Select options are used in Selection Screen and 'Ranges' are used internally for coding purpose in a program.

The structure of Ranges is

RANGE-SIGN = 'I' OR 'E' (Include/Exclude)

RANGE-OPTION (Possbile Values are 'EQ' ,'BT' etc )

RANGE-LOW - lower limit

RANGE-HIGH - upper limit

Example:

RANGES : R_EBELN LIKE EKPO-EBELN.

The above statement creates a internal table with the structure mentioned above.

LOW and HIGH can have values similar to EBELN

Sample Code :

R_EBELN-SIGN = 'I'.

R_EBELN-OPTION = 'BT'.

R_EBELN-LOW = '0000000100'.

R_EBELN-HIGH = '0000000200'.

APPEND R_EBELN.

The baove statemet means that range R_EBELN has got values betwen '00000000100' TO '0000000200'.

R_EBELN-SIGN = 'E'.

R_EBELN-OPTION = 'EQ'.

R_EBELN-LOW = '0000000106'.

APPEND R_EBELN.

The above statement means that R_EBELN is not equal to '0000000106'.

Hope its clear.

Thanks,

Jyothi
