hi,

may i know why i got error for this? instead i must have into v_matnr then only is correct. i thought tables mara is already a working area defined, right?

thanks

tables mara.

select single matnr from mara where matnr = p_matnr.

tables mara.

select single matnr into mara-matnr from mara where matnr = p_matnr.

yes it is a table work area you have defined but for field selection in which field you want to store the value you have to specifically declare. or you can use

select single * from mara where matnr = p_matnr.

it will fill all the corresponding fields in table work area mara.

Hi,

You can use the following two options:

A)

tables mara.

select single * from mara where matnr = p_matnr.

B)

tables mara.

select sinle matnr from mara into mara-matnr where matnr = p_matnr.

The reason for error is when you are selecting some particular fields from a table you have to explicitly specify the target fields or variables.

You tried to select only the matnr field into the entire work area of table mara.

Thank you.
