[Former Member]

hi all,

i have a flat file and in that there r multiple records of type '3' and in that i want to move some text which is at t_data-fld+359(80) to w_data-zmardesc.

the below code is working fine but it is moving the last record text only. but i want for the first record.

IF T_DATA-FLD+1(1) = '3'.

W_DATA-ZMARDESC = T_DATA-FLD+359(80).

ENDIF.

try this..

<b>data : flag(1).</b>

IF T_DATA-FLD+1(1) = '3'.

<b>if flag ne 'X'.</b>

W_DATA-ZMARDESC = T_DATA-FLD+359(80).

<b>flag = 'X'.</b>

ENDIF.

endif.

If ur using loop then Check something like this.....

IF SY-TABIX EQ 1.
IF T_DATA-FLD+1(1) = '3'.
W_DATA-ZMARDESC = T_DATA-FLD+359(80).
ELSE.
EXIT.
ENDIF.

Hope this helps...

first time the FLAG will be space ,

IF T_DATA-FLD+1(1) = '3'.   " enters IF condition when condition met
if flag ne 'X'.                        " as flag is SPACE for first time it will continue,
                                         "second time when it comes flag will be X , so it will
                                         "not enter and you will have the first record data 
W_DATA-ZMARDESC = T_DATA-FLD+359(80).
flag = 'X'.
ENDIF.
endif.

Helo, you can do like this:

<b>READ TABLE T_DATA INDEX 1</b>

IF T_DATA-FLD+1(1) = '3'.

W_DATA-ZMARDESC = T_DATA-FLD+359(80).

ENDIF.

Or if you need, use the sort command before the read.

Regards
