header line in internal table

[former_member220801]

I have declared a 'table in table' structure. (is it called deep structure?)

TYPES: BEGIN of ty_test1

header TYPE ty_header,

detail TYPE ty_detail OCCURS 0,

END of ty_test1.

DATA: it_test TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_test1 WITH HEADER LINE OCCURS 0.

Can I also have a header line declared for the structure 'detail' inside the internal table so that I can use related functions LIKE 'MOVE-CORRESPONDING', 'SELECT..INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS...' and 'LOOP AT it_test-detail'?

Thanks!

Hi,

Yes you can Declare.

But I am not sure about this deep structure.

I don't think it's possible to have a header line.

You have to declare a aux. structure.

But Phani may Know another way, for his reply.

I was getting some syntax problems with you code. I have adjusted.

types: begin of ty_test1,
           header type ty_header,
           detail type ty_detail occurs 0,
       end of ty_test1.

data: it_test type standard table of ty_test1 with header line.
data: wa_test type ty_test1.

Ok, here is a little sample. Put it in debug and watch it work.

Types: ty_header(10) type c,
       ty_detail(10) type c.


types: begin of ty_test1,
           header type ty_header,
           detail type ty_detail occurs 0,
       end of ty_test1.

data: it_test type standard table of ty_test1 with header line.
data: wa_test type ty_test1.

data: it_detail type table of ty_detail.
data: wa_detail type ty_detail.


wa_detail = 'blahblahblah'.
append  wa_detail to it_detail.

wa_test-detail[] = it_detail[].
append wa_test to it_test.


Check sy-subrc  = 0.
