Writing data from an Internal Table declared indirectly

[Former Member]

Hi All!

I'm a new ABAP learner. First of all this forums seems to be a very valuable resource for starters like me. I have a small rather silly problem. I want to write data from an internal table which is declared indirectly in the following manner:

TYPES : BEGIN OF TEMP,

A TYPE I,

B TYPE I,

END OF TEMP.

DATA : TEMP1 TYPE TEMP. " using a structure obj as HL

DATA : ITAB TYPE TEMP1 OCCURS 3.

DO 3 TIMES.

TEMP1-A = SY-INDEX.

TEMP1-B = SY-INDEX * 10.

APPEND TEMP1 TO ITAB.

ENDDO.

From here I want to write the values from ITAB.

can someone help me with this?

Welcome srikanth.

TYPES : BEGIN OF TEMP,

A TYPE I,

B TYPE I,

END OF TEMP.

DATA : TEMP1 TYPE TEMP. " using a structure obj as HL

DATA : ITAB TYPE TEMP1 OCCURS 3.

DO 3 TIMES.

TEMP1-A = SY-INDEX.

TEMP1-B = SY-INDEX * 10.

APPEND TEMP1 TO ITAB.

ENDDO.

After append you can write itab in this way.

<b>loop at itab.

write itab-a, itab-b.

endloop.</b>

Well thanks for the quick reply Manohar!

Unfortunately this did'nt work as I have tried before. The reason is the internal table ITAB does not have a direct header line so it cannot have attributes A and B so we can't use ITAB-A and ITAB-B here.

This works good for me.

types : begin of temp,
a type i,
b type i,
end of temp.

data : temp1 type temp. " using a structure obj as HL
<b>data : itab type temp occurs 3.</b>

do 3 times.
  temp1-a = sy-index.
  temp1-b = sy-index * 10.
  append temp1 to itab.
enddo.


<b>loop at itab into temp1.
  write:/ temp1-a, temp1-b.
endloop.</b>
