I am not able to write a select query (as a macro) in SM30 TRMAC table, please let me know whether it's possible or not?.

Hi sudhir,

1. Its absolutely possible.

(i just tried it)

2. the program is

report abc.

parameters: a type c.

data : itab like table of t001 with header line.

zmac.

break-point.

3. The MACRO is ZMAC

and the macro code is

select * from t001 into table itab.

4. it works fantastic.

(make sure the ITAB,variables are already declared

in the program)

Hi Amit,

Single line queries work fine,writing a query with a where condition or by passing a work-area or a variable to the macro results in syntax errors. Please check.

Hi again,

1. *

2. We have to give *

as the last character of that line in TRMAC

3. <b>select * from t001 into table itab *</b>

where bukrs = itab-bukrs.

Hi Amit,

The following statement is just not working

SM30-----

select single * from mara into wa_mara * -line1

where matnr eq l_matnr. -line2

SE38----- both wa_mara & l_matnr are defined in the program as work area-type mara & variable -type mara-matnr before calling the macro.

It's unable to interpret '*' & where condition! is it some version related problem?.
