Collect funtionality on sorted tab whose nonkeyfields are not numeric

Question

Hi,
i have a requirement to collect all the identical records i.e sort and sum by all indicatives for which i defined an internal table like this
sorted internal table
  field1(char)--keyfield
  field2(char)--keyfield
  field3(CHAR).....(but currency amount will be stored, as-is in db too)
  filed4(CURR).... currency field
  field5(char)
i need to COLLECT all the records in such a way that the field3 should be added on all the identical records and same as with field 4. the values for field1, field2 and field4 wont change if the key is same. im unable to do that bcos the collect wontt support this requirement.
In short i need to collect field3 and field4
how should i do that. your help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Answer 1

here is my requirement
internal table 1(sorted)
field1(10)-|-filed2(10)|-FIELD3-|-FIELD4-|-field5-|
type ckeyf-|- type c-keyf|type c|-CURR-|-typec|
though field3 is char, i need to add all the values because currency is stored in that field
field 4 is currency field
if the table contains entries like this
10000|0100|2000|3000|A
10000|0100|-200|-500|A
10000|0100|0500|0200|A
my final table needs to be like this
10000|0100|2300|2700|A
loop at itab1.
collect itab1 into ***
endloop.
it doesn't work and more over every non key field should be numeric to make this work..
how should my final internaltable look like and the process i need to follow. your help would be appreciated
Thanks,
