Hi,

Declaration like this

Types : begin of i_plant,

plant type plant,

country type country,

region type region,

end of i_plant.

data : itab_plant type standard table of i_plant,

wa_plant type i_plant.

Note down the bold parts of the internal table declaration with your code you will get the difference between your code and problem you experienced.

hi swaminath,

The following explanation could help u out in finding ur error.

Creating Internal Tables

By using Type statement

Types : begin of line,

column1 type I,

column2 type I,

end of line.

Using TYPES we cannot create an internal table.

Data itab type line occurs 10.

Internal table itab is created with the same structure as internal table data type line.

The TYPES statement creates a structure LINE as defined.

In the next line when we say DATA : itab type line occurs 10. An internal table itab is created with the structure of LINE.

Besides declaring the structure of an internal table, the OCCURS clause also defines how many table entries are maintained in main storage. Extra records are written out to paging area and can effect performance.

EXAMPLE:

TYPES : begin of line,

empno type I,

empname(20) type c ,

end of line.

By using DATA statement we need to create internal table by referring to TYPES data type.

Example:

DATA t_line TYPE line OCCURS 10 with header line

If you look at the example, it becomes clear that an internal table t_line is created of the type LINE . The table can hold 10 records and also has an header line., where LINE could be another internal table or a transparent table.

Reward if useful

Thank you,
