MODIFY ALL LINES IN INTERNAL TABLE

Hi,
How to modify more than one line in an internal table? I tried using update, failed as update is not for internal tables. Your help is appriciated .
thank you,
surya.

To change one or more lines using a condition, use the following statement:
MODIFY itab FROM wa TRANSPORTING f1 f2 ... WHERE cond.
This processes all of the lines that meet the logical condition cond. The logical expression cond can consist of more than one comparison. In each comparison, the first operand must be a component of the line structure. If the table lines are not structured, the first operand can also be the expression TABLE_LINE. The comparison then applies to the entire line. If the line type of the internal table contains object reference variables as component comp or if the entire line type is a reference variable, the attributes of the attr object to which the respective line reference points can be specified as comparison values using comp->attr or table_line->attr.
The work area wa, which must be compatible with the line type of the internal table, contains the new contents, which in turn will be assigned to the relevant table line using the TRANSPORTING addition. Unlike the above MODIFYstatement, the TRANSPORTING addition is not optional here. Furthermore, you can only modify the key fields of the internal table if it is a standard table. If at least one line is changed, the system sets sy-subrc to 0, otherwise to 4.
REPORT demo_int_tables_modify .
DATA: BEGIN OF line,
 col1 TYPE i,
 col2 TYPE i,
 END OF line.
DATA itab LIKE HASHED TABLE OF line WITH UNIQUE KEY col1.
DO 4 TIMES.
line-col1 = sy-index.
line-col2 = sy-index ** 2.
INSERT line INTO TABLE itab.
ENDDO.
line-col1 = 2.
line-col2 = 100.
MODIFY TABLE itab FROM line.
LOOP AT itab INTO line.
WRITE: / line-col1, line-col2.
ENDLOOP.
The list output is:
 1 1
 2 100
 3 9
 4 16
The program fills a hashed table with a list of square numbers. The MODIFY statement changes the line of the table in which the key field col1 has the value 2.
I hope it helps.

Vibha

Large line to internal tables from tab delimited file

Dear All
I am trying to upload the large file of tab delimited data into a SAP internal table. I am basically stuck with the fact that there are multiple lines and multiple columns in tab delimited file. There are around 300 columns which are tab delimited and separated
For e.g (* indicates tab)
1material*****************1**9888**********5**********34*********3*********346************************-->upto 5000 columns
1material*****************1**99338************4***********************************6************7************-->upto 5000 columns

Hi Amolsonaikar,
you may try like this:
TYPES:
begin of line,
t_field type table of string,
end of line,
t_line type table of line.
DATA:
lt_line type t_line,
lv_line type string,
lt_field type table of string.
open dataset 'XYZ' for input in text mode encoding default.
while sy-subrc = 0.
read dataset into lv_line.
split lv_line at '|' into lt_field.
append lt_field to lt_line.
endwhile.

New Line after every 900 lines in internal table

HI,
I have an internal table and that is sorted by company code. i.e it is grouped according to company code.
Now i want to check in particular groups of company code if the lines of internal table is > 900 or not.
And if it > 900 i have to insert new line.
How to do that?

Hi
Please check the code..I think it will solve ur problem
TYPES : BEGIN OF x_data,
         name TYPE char10,
        END OF x_data.
data: i_data TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF x_data INITIAL SIZE 0,
      wa_data TYPE x_data,
      counter TYPE n LENGTH 2 .
DO 5 TIMES.
CLEAR : wa_data.
counter = counter + 1.
CONCATENATE 'subha' counter INTO wa_data-name.
APPEND wa_data to i_data.
ENDDO.
CLEAR : counter,
        wa_data .
DESCRIBE TABLE i_data LINES counter.
IF counter > 4.
counter = 5.
wa_data-name = 'TEST'.
INSERT wa_data INTO i_data INDEX counter.
ENDIF.
CLEAR: wa_data.
LOOP at i_data INTO wa_data .
WRITE : / wa_data-name.
ENDLOOP.
Use 900 instead 4 and 901 instead of 5.

Modify column in an internal table

Hi Friends,
I have an internal table itab1 which has a column called zpo_number .
I am getting the PO from a BAPI call storing in a field w_ponumber.
I have the code below . THe table itab1 has rows all having the same matnr .
How can I modify all the rows of the table with the same w_ponumber ?
Thanks!
Loop at itab1
babpi call get po number
w_ponumber.
MODIFY itab1
endloop.

simplicity change to your original code provided:
Loop at itab1
babpi call get po number
w_ponumber.
itab1-z_ponumber = w_ponumber.
MODIFY itab1
endloop.
Or -
Loop at itab1
babpi call get po number
itab1-z_ponumber.
MODIFY itab1
endloop.

Dynamically inserting new line in Internal table

Hi,
Can anyone help me how to insert a new line dynamically to the internal table.
Assume there are 5 records that has been added to ITAB.
In that if a particular field in that ITAB crosses the limit 10 then i have to split that line into two lines with the same data except that Par.field as 5 and the other record has 5.
In the third record that particular field has value 10.
Loop at ITAB.
 Once i found that field has 10 then how to insert a new line dynamically over here to add another record.
endloop.

Hi..
Hi..
try this..
loop at itab.
if ( i found that field <f1> has 10 ).
 w_line2 = itab-f1+5(5).
 w_line3 = itab-f1.
***********First line********
 itab-f1 = itab-f1+0(5).
 modify itab index sy-tabix from itab transporting f1.
***********second line******** Hi..
try this..
loop at itab.
if ( i found that field <f1> has 10 ).
 w_line2 = itab-f1+5(5).

Efficiently deleting lines from internal table based on column comparison

Hi all,
let's assume, I have the following internal table MY_TAB:
COL_1 | COL_2 | COL_3
A 1 1
B 2 2
C 3 3
D 3 4
E 3 5
I'd like to delete all rows, where the values in COL_2 and COL_3 are equal. That is, in the above table, the rows for A, B and C.
What's the most performant / fastest and efficient way to do this?
Thanks for any hints in advance!
Best regards,
Philipp

I do not understand other proposal.
The are two solutions possible
LOOP AT itab INTO wa.
 IF ( wa-col2 = wa-col3).
 DELETE itab INDEX sy-tabix.
 ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
If memory is not an issue and if many lines are to be deleted, then the APPEND in a new table is better.#
I would use that one in all cases where the conditions are complicated.
LOOP AT itab INTO wa.
 IF ( wa-col2 <> wa-col3).
 APPEND wa TO itab2.
 ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
refresh itab.
itab[] = itab2[].

hi
I shortened your program a bit. So we can go to essentials of your question.
You said you put in it in a loop.
What i see in your prog is:
REPORT zscript_116719.
************table decleration***************
TABLES: mara, mbew, makt.
LOOP AT i_makt INTO wa_makt.
ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT i_mara INTO wa_mara.

ENDLOOP.
lv_price = 0.
********************total price******************
LOOP AT i_mbew INTO wa_mbew.
lv_price = lv_price + wa_mbew-stprs.
ENDLOOP.
END-OF-SELECTION.
CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'

 form = 'ZSCRIPT_719'

CALL FUNCTION 'START_FORM'

*LOOP AT I_MBEW INTO WA_MBEW.
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
 EXPORTING

1. Your loop is not a loop with this '*' in front of it.
2. Are you printing &wa_mbew-???& variables in your sap-script
3. is itab I_MBEW properly filled
Let me know.

Unicode error:a line of internal table and a data object are not mutually c

Hi Friends,
    This is the issue in upgradation from 4.6c to ECC6.0
    I have an internal table itab which has include structure say 'xyz' . In xyz there is a field of type int4 as third field. I have a field as l_line which is a string.
data : begin of itab occurs 0.
         include structure zxyz.
data: end of itab.
data: l_line type string.
In the program I am getting the unicode error as:
" A line of "itab" and "l_line" are not mutually convertible in unicode program." at he following line.
loop at itab into l_line.
endloop.
Thanks,
Ali.

Hi Narendran,
I did the same earlier, but the field l_line is again used in the another line as follows
IF l_line CS w_group.----
(1)
where     w_group         LIKE zstr-cctr_group.
here zstr-cctr_group is same as one of the fields of structure xyz.
in line 1 it is giving warning as
l_line is incompatible and it must be C,N,D,T or string.
Thanks,
Ali

ASSIGN to add new lines to internal tables

Hello,
within our code, I have found several occurrences of the obsolete ASSIGN LOCAL COPY which I would like to replace with up-to-date coding. Particularly, we have the following code segment:
DATA: ct_table TYPE INDEX TABLE.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <ls_new_row> TYPE ANY,
<lv_field> TYPE ANY.
ASSIGN LOCAL COPY OF INITIAL LINE OF ct_table TO <ls_new_row>.
ASSIGN COMPONENT '1' OF STRUCTURE <ls_new_row> TO <lv_field>.
<lv_field> = ...
ASSIGN COMPONENT '2' OF STRUCTURE <ls_new_row> TO <lv_field>.
<lv_field> = ...
INSERT <ls_new_row> INTO TABLE ct_table.
What is the most efficient non-obsolete code equivalent for this?
--Florian

You might also use the command INSERT INITIAL LINE INTO TABLE itab ASSIGNING <fs>.
You will encounter problems with this solution if the internal table has key components as the system will not allow you to change these in this setup after the insertion.

Modify the structure of internal table which created dynamically!!!

HI All,
I am creating internal table dynamically using the below syntax. Now I need to remove few of the fields from the internal table structure. Could you please help me how to go ahead in these cases?
* Create table dynamically for local data
CREATE DATA gv_table_l TYPE TABLE OF (<fs_tabname>).
CREATE DATA gv_wa_l TYPE (<fs_tabname>).
ASSIGN gv_table_l->* TO <fs_local_tab>.
ASSIGN gv_wa_l->* TO <fs_local_wa
>.
Please let me know if you have any thoughts.
Thanks,
Raghu.

Hi ,
check this wiki
[Internal Table|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/Howtocreateinternaltable+dynamically]
in your case ...
1.Get filed list based on the type ...make use of "cl_abap_datadescr=>describe_by_type('MARA'), check for syntax or sample programs...
2.Delete fields which you dont want to be in your internal table....
3.Create internal table using method " CL_ALV_TABLE_CREATE=>CREATE_DYNAMIC_TABLE" ref attached link for sample code by Pinaki...

Hello Tathagata,
I have a similar problem.
I need to react on a change of an input-field of the
grid-control.
When i call the method "->check_changed_data"
i allways get e_valid == 'X'.
The problem is, i have to react in any case, when the
user presses <ENTER> and if the user has changed
a field-entry, i have to read additional data
and store it into the internal datarow of
the grid-table.
I have'nt found an event like "ON DATA CHANGED" ...
How can i solve this problem.
Thank You very much in advance
