What do you want to transfert and where do you want to transfert ? and what is the problem with your syntax ?

"LV_COMP is a table without a header line"

if you do :

data my_table type table_type with header-line. 

my_table-field = 'something'

you must have an header line, that means, a structure with exactly the same name as the table. This is old ABAP code, could not be use in Abap Object.

Now, to use your LV_COMP, you need to know:

• Do you want to add an entry
• Do you want to initiate a new entry
• Do you want to update an entry

For modification, you could use simple

LOOP AT my_table into data(my_table_line).
  IF something = something_else.
    my_table_line-field = 'something_else_again'.
    UPDATE my_table FROM my_table_line TRANSPORTING field.
  ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.

if you need to initiate a new entry (empty table).

my_table = values #( ( field = 'something' ) ).

The internal ( ) represente an entry, if you need several entries value #( ( entry one ) (entry two ) ).

and to add you could use statement APPEND

You should add a basic ABAP tutorial link to that answer, and you'd nailed it.

I am not sure to not have made error, I wrote it very fast.

So, yes, for any help; you have the transaction : ABAPDOCU (in SAP) and you could enter any statement you will find full help

aarghhh... You shouldn't talk about header lines unless the OP talks about it, currently I understand that maybe I can try to use a header line even if it's obsolete. Header lines can be used ONLY when there's no other choice, when using or maintaining old programs.

[VXLozano]

If you are maintaining old programs, the first thing you must do is to remove those nasty header lines, occurs and tables declarations.

sandra.rossi there is no tabou in ABAP 🙂

[Sandra_Rossi]

I like the idea of having no taboo (in ABAP or whatever). There's just people who throw water on electricity fire ! Just kidding 😉

If you search the forum, you'll see that the question has been answered lots of times:

No taboos, but I'm not convinced that your mention of header lines won't confuse the OP further. Best keep things simple.

I tell you what, let's talk about field groups. 😉

[matt]

�� = wink. 😀

[FredericGirod]

nobody remember field-groups 🙂

[Sandra_Rossi]

Field groups are never far..., I refreshed my memory 2 days ago by looking at RSNAST00 😄
