Hi
Please see the following:
1. Create an entry in Trxn DBCA for SQL Server in SAP, you are creating a database connection for the SQL server in SAP.
2. You use this connection, and write Native SQL stmnts...between EXECSQL...ENDEXEC to fetch the data..and then normal ABAP statements to put that data into your ztable.
TABLE DBCON Entry can be like this...depends on your External database..
CON_NAME          Raj                      Logical name for connection
DBMS                   MSS                   Microsoft SQL Server
USER_NAME        <User name>       For SQL Server
PASSWORD         <password>         " "
CON_ENV             MSSQL_SERVER=<server> MSSQL_DBNAME=<database name>
DB_RECO                 Availability type for an open database connect
FUNCTION z_houston_connect.
""Local interface:
EXEC SQL.
CONNECT TO 'RAJ' AS 'V'
ENDEXEC.
EXEC SQL.
SET CONNECTION 'V'
ENDEXEC.
*- Get the data from MS-SQL Server
EXEC SQL.
open C1 for
select
l.loc_id,
l.loc_name,
a.acc_id,
a.acc_name,
d.person
from ho_loc_mast as l
inner join snd_acc_mast as a on l.loc_id = a.loc_id
inner join snd_acc_addr as d on a.loc_id = d.loc_id and
a.acc_id = d.acc_id
where l.loc_id = '001'
ENDEXEC.
DO.
EXEC SQL.
FETCH NEXT C1 into :wa-c_locid, :wa-c_locname, :wa-c_acc_id, :wa-c_acc_name, :wa-c_person
ENDEXEC.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
PERFORM loop_output.
ELSE.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
EXEC SQL.
CLOSE C1
ENDEXEC.
ENDFUNCTION.
