LOW and HIGH fields

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

could you tell me a bit more about LOW and HIGH fields?

I would like to know, whether the following two rows are equal or not?

If I have LOW and HIGH it means the values beetwen the two values, doesn't it?

If I'm not filling the OPTION with BT, do the program know that it is a range beetwen the values?

SIGN OPTION LOW HIGH

I 00001000 00002000

I BT 00001000 00002000

hiiii

yes you are right.its only a LOW HIGH values that is lower limit & upper limit only.you give it manually or in select option.its same..& you can use BT also for getting values in between that low & high value.

it will give you same result all the available values between 0000 & 0002.

Yes..

If I'm not filling the OPTION with BT, do the program know that it is a range beetwen the values?

Hello

In SELECT-OPTIONS - there are no difference.

Your two rows are equal.

Hi,

YES, the two statements are same

If I have LOW and HIGH it means the values beetwen the two values, doesn't it?

Hi the ans in this case may be two types

Case 1 : if you use sign I it gets values between the low and high

case 2 : If you use sign E it gets values greater than High and lesser than low

example take low as 1 and high as 100.

then when you use I you get values from 1 to 100

when E you get values < 1 and >100

If I'm not filling the OPTION with BT, do the program know that it is a range beetwen the values?

By default option is BT

Hi,

Actualy select options internaly behaves as internal table to specify the selection criteria of input value or range.

Take the answers in sequences,

1> YES, the two statements are same

2> NOT EXACTLY.If LOW and HIGH is specified all the values

which comes in between them will be counted but issue

comes in LOW and HIGH values. if you give SIGN = I

both will be included if you give SIGN = E they will not.

3> The default value of OPTION is BETWEEN. So if won't

specify any, it will take BETWEEN.

Reward if found helpful.

HI,

check this code.

if you dont mention Option "BT' or some thing else.

the program will give a dump.

RANGES: matnr FOR mara-matnr.

DATA: i_mara LIKE mara OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

matnr-low = '111'.

matnr-high = '115'.

*matnr-option = 'BT'.

matnr-sign = 'I'.

APPEND matnr.

SELECT * FROM mara INTO TABLE i_mara

WHERE matnr IN matnr.

Hi,

Whenever you want to search simple as well complex data search(range include, range exclude) , wa always prefer to use SELECT-OPTIONS.

One internal table is generated implicitly with the same data object name as the name of SELECT-OPTIONS

This internal table contains 4 columns...These are SIGN OPTION LOW HIGH

SIGN column contains:- INCLUSIVE or EXCLUSIVE

OPTION column contains:- logical expression like > , < , <>, = , >= , <= etc.

LOW column contains:- Lower Value.

HIGH column contains:- Higher Value.

Q: If I have LOW and HIGH it means the values beetwen the two values, doesn't it?

A: Yes, it is correct. But it can be INCLUDE or EXCLUDE also.

Q: If I'm not filling the OPTION with BT, do the program know that it is a range beetwen the values?

A: In case of INCLUDE you need NOT to enter BT because it is the default one. But in case of EXCLUDE you neet to enter the OPTION.

Hi Mr white,

The given two rows are not equal.

Each select-option parameter is treated as

internal table with the following fields.

Sign Option Low High

I / E BT Single value High value in case of BT

I/E - Include / Excluding

Option - You can provide options like Between

(provide Low and High), Equal to (single value),

Not Equal to, Pattern (A* - Low value to B* - High value)

etc.

If you are filling the OPTION with BT, program

will consider it as EQUAL TO LOW Value only.

[Former Member]

Thanks for the answers

[Former Member]

Actually

if You provide values in low and high it will consider as BT (Between).

Sorry for the wrong input.

Hi,

Yes, both the statements are same. Both brings records between LOW and HIGH.

try this example.

tables :
 spfli.
select-options:
  s_carrid for spfli-carrid.

initialization.
 s_carrid-low  = 'AA'.
 s_carrid-high = 'LH'.
 s_carrid-sign = 'I'.
*s_carrid-option = 'BT'.   
   *** "  Once uncomment the above OPTION  and check.

 append s_carrid.

 start-of-selection.
 data:
   t_spfli like standard table of spfli with header line.

  select * from spfli into table  t_spfli where carrid in
s_carrid.

loop at t_spfli.
write  :/  t_spfli-carrid,t_spfli-connid,t_spfli-cityfrom.
endloop.

Rajitha.
