Hello,

Iw ill just try to grab you attention on structure of any abap program,

It has:

1). DB selection part

2). Data rpocessing aprt
3). Data display part.

Now as far as routines are concerned we only need to focus about data selection and processing.

So you need to know common keywords usage like.

TYPES/DATA : for data declaration

INTERNAL TABLES: standard table (where data sits in)

loop at table and read table.

common conditional operators like if endif, case enscase.

some system varibles like sy-subrc sy-tabix, index.

just open SE38...create a z program....

type in all these one by one and press F1 to know there usage.

All the best
