sorted table with a unique key

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have created a sorted internal table with unique key as under -

DATA : ITAB TYPE SORTED TABLE OF SFLIGHT WITH UNIQUE KEY CARRID CONNID.

Now the internal table already has a record with say CARRID = 'AA' and CONNID ='0017'

However when i try to insert one more record in the internal table with same key say CARRID = 'AA' and CONNID ='0017'

it does not give me any error. Should not it give me an error as it is table with UNIQUE key and should not allow duplicates

Can you demonstrate it using a working code sample?

Hi Hema ,

You will not get a design time error but a run time error as the duplicate is not checked till we run the program.You should get this error "ITAB_DUPLICATE_KEY_IDX_OP".

You asked this question already. You did not respond to the questions asking for further information - like the actual source code you've used. Therefore I rejected your question.

In the hope that this time you'll actually get the message. I shall now lock this thread.
