Hi Friends,

Could you please tell us what is the purpose of this command

<b>SHARED BUFFER dbtab(ar) [TO wa] [CLIENT cl] ID id</b>

Regards

This is not really a command but rather an addition to the EXPORT/IMPORT command. Look up ABAP Help:

"Alternative 6

... SHARED BUFFER dbtab(ar) [TO wa] [CLIENT cl] ID id

Effect

If SHARED MEMORY or SHARED BUFFER is specified, the data cluster that is specified in the area ar, given under the identification in id using the statement EXPORT, and also written to the appropriate application buffer of the Shared Memories, is imported. The system accesses a storage table of the application buffer whose row structure is defined by a database table dbtab. The set-up of this table is described in the statement EXPORT. For id, a flat, character-type data object is expected that contains the identification of the data cluster. The two-digit area ar must be specified directly.

For the optional specifications of the work area wa and the client cl, the same applies as for import from a database table."
