Hello yasu_1096

Both SY-LISEL and SY-TABIX are ABAP System Fields

SY-LISEL is used to implement classic interactive lists - see SAP Help Passing Data Automatically for some examples. The classic lists are hardly used anymore, so don't spend too much time on that.

SY-TABIX is used during internal tables processing - see SAP Help LOOP AT itab - Basic Form for details and examples.

Best regards

These two system fields are completely unrelated, I wonder why you are asking about these two at the same time. SY-LISEL is obsolete, nobody is using it anymore...
