Check if this works

select * 
from dbtable
into itab
where NOT field1 like '% A% B% C% D% E% F% G% H% I% J% K% L% M% N% O% P% Q% R% S% T% U% V% W% X% Y% Z %'.

Hi Vikranth,

I tried your code.

select *

from dbtable

into itab

where NOT field1 like '% A% B% C% D% E% F% G% H% I% J% K% L% M% N% O% P% Q% R% S% T% U% V% W% X% Y% Z %'.

But it shows error like 'Like operator should be no mor than 8 characters long'..

Thanks.

Hi,

Try to split the where and see. Some thing like this.

select *
from ztable
into TABLE itab
where NOT ztable like '% A% B%' AND NOT ztable like 'C% D% E' AND NOT ztable like '% F% G%' AND NOT ztable like 'H% I% J'
  AND NOT ztable like '% K% L' AND NOT ztable like '% M% N' AND NOT ztable like '% O% P' AND NOT ztable like '% Q% R'
  AND NOT ztable like '% S% T' AND NOT ztable like '% U% V' AND NOT ztable like '% W% X' AND NOT ztable like '% Y% Z %'.

Thanks,

Sri.

Hi,

did you try like this ?

SELECT * FROM database INTO t_inter WHERE field1 = crit1.

LOOP AT t_inter into w_intern WHERE field1 CO '0123456789'.
....
ENDLOOP.

or

LOOP AT t_inter into w_intern.
CHECK w_intern-field1 CO '0123456789'
....
ENDLOOP.

Hi Nandini,

Try like this

data: begin of itab occurs 0,
      f1 like T591S-SUBTY,
      end of itab.


select subty
into table itab
from t591s
where NOT subty like '%A%B%C%' and
      NOT subty like '%F%G%H%'  and
      NOT subty like '%K%L%M%' and
      NOT subty like '%P%Q%R%' and
      NOT subty like '%U%V%W%'  and
      NOT subty like '%E%J%O%' and
      NOT subty like '%y%Z&'.

I must have missed 1 or 2 alphabets. Include them and check. It works

Hi Experts,

Thanks for your valuable replies.

Table is T591S and field name is SUBTY.

I Used CO operator. But it throws error like "CO" is not a valid comparison operator. .

Thanks.

Hi,

You cannot use CO CA CP operators in where conditions of select statement directly.

Try the solution given by Dzed. It should work

Hello

Working code:

data: itab like T591S occurs 0.
RANGES: R_SUBTY for T591S-SUBTY.
R_SUBTY-SIGN = 'I'.
R_SUBTY-OPTION = 'BT'.
R_SUBTY-LOW = '0'.
R_SUBTY-HIGH = '9999'.
APPEND R_SUBTY.
SELECT * FROM T591S INTO TABLE ITAB WHERE SUBTY IN R_SUBTY.

Hi Dzed Maroz,

Thanks for the Effort. But i need to write this code with in the method of class.

In ABAP Objects we cannot use Ranges addition. Anyway thanks for your effort.

Thanks.

Hi,

sorry for the mistake.

You can select all your data and then use the CO operator into your LOOP statement (i.e. with a CHECK )

Regards,

David

[ThomasZloch]

But you can use

DATA: R_SUBTY TYPE RANGE OF T591S-SUBTY.

and also use a separate work area.

Hello

As say Thomas you can declare:

DATA: R_SUBTY TYPE RANGE OF T591S-SUBTY.
*" instead of
RANGES: R_SUBTY for T591S-SUBTY.

It will be work.

P.s. In the future immediately elaborate that you are working with classes.

Hello

Try this scenario (example for MARA-MATNR):

* declare RANGES for value
RANGES: R_MATNR for MARA-MATNR.
* fill RANGES by numeric values
R_MATNR-SIGN = 'I'.
R_MATNR-OPTION = 'BT'.
R_MATNR-LOW = '000000000000000000'.
R_MATNR-HIGH = '999999999999999999'.
APPEND R_MATNR.
* select data
SELECT * FROM MARA INTO TABLE ITAB WHERE MATNR IN R_MATNR.

Hi Nandini,

the following code works according to ur requirement.......

types : begin of type_itab,
          subty type t591s-subty,
        end of type_itab.

data: w_subty type t591s-subty.
data: itab type table of type_itab with header line.
data: w_idx like sy-tabix.

select distinct subty
from t591s
into table itab.

  if sy-subrc eq 0.
    loop at itab.
    w_idx = sy-tabix.
      if itab ca sy-abcde.
      delete itab index w_idx.
      endif.
    endloop.
    clear itab.
  endif.
