Hai,

How i can declare the tables in SE24 transation.

Example

************\

I declared one table

TABLES: SPOH.

It's showing one error.

YOU CAN'T USE A TABLES STATEMENT WITH IN A METHOD.

any one give the solution for that problem

You declare a work area instead of TABLES statement and use that in your query

data:wa_spoh type spoh.

Hi Udaya,

<b>I think SPOH not a table</b> , and also we can't use table statement with in method,

As per OOPS concepts we can't declare a table directly,

We can declare throw table type concepts,

<b>data : itab type table of vbak ,

wa type itab.</b>

if u have any doubt reply me,

Regards,

Vijay

Hi,

create the table type for the table spoh in se11 and then refer u customised table to that table type.

plzz reward points if it is helpful.

The TABLES statement is not required to SELECT etc. from a table. All it does is create a work area of the name and structure of the table. Since this can create an ambiguity in the code - ( E.g TABLES: mara. When you use MARA in your program, it's sometimes the table, other times it's the structure) - this statement has been disallowed from ABAP Objects, which has more rigourous type checking.

The simplest solution, therefore, is to create a structure in the following way:

DATA: wa_spoh TYPE spoh.
