Displaying contents of two int. tables in same screen using grid display

Hello everyone,
Can anyone give me any idea how we can print contents of two internal tables of different structures in same screen while we are using GRID display fm. This is working fine in LIST display with fm's like REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_INIT , BLOCK_LIST_APPEND and BLOCK_LIST_DISPLAY. But what about the same in Grid display?

Hi,
You have to define two containers in a single Screen.

How to get common datas from two int.tables

hi,
please tell me , how to i will get the common datas between two int. tables
& place them in third int. table.
give me syntax.
regards
subhasis.

Hi Subhasis,
<b>SORT :</b></u>
SORT itab.
Extras:
1. ... BY f1 f2 ... fn
2. ... ASCENDING
3. ... DESCENDING
4. ... AS TEXT
5. ... STABLE
The syntax check performed in an ABAP Objects context is stricter than in other ABAP areas. See Field symbols not allowed as sort criterion.
Effect
The entries in the internal table are sorted in ascending order using the key from the table definition (DATA, TYPES).
Addition 1
... BY f1 f2 ... fn
Effect
Uses the sort key defined by the sub-fields f1, f2, ..., fn of the table itab instead of the table key. The fields can be of any type; even number fields and tables are allowed.
You can also specify the sort fields dynamically in the form (name). If name is blank at runtime, the sort field is ignored. If itab is a table with a header line, you can also use a field symbol pointing to the header line of itab as a dynamic sort criterion. A field symbol that is not assigned is ignored. If a field symbol is assigned, but does not point to the header line of the internal table, a runtime error occurs.
If the line type of the internal table contains object reference variables as components, or the entire line type is a reference variable, you can use the attributes of the object to which a reference is pointing in a line as sort criteria (see Attributes of Objects as the Key of an Internal Table.
You can address the entire line of an internal table as the key using the pseudocomponent TABLE_LINE. This is particularly relevant for tables with a non-structured line type when you want to address the whole line as the key of the table (see also Pseudocomponent TABLE_LINE With Internal Tables).
If you use one of the additions 2 to 5 before BY, it applies to all fields of the sort key by default. You can also specify these additions after each individual sort field f1, f2, ..., fn. For each key field, this defines an individual sort rule which overrides the default.
Addition 2
... ASCENDING
Effect
Sorts in ascending order. This is also the default if no sort order is specified directly after SORT. For this reason, it is not necessary to specify ASCENDING explicitly as the default sort order.
With the addition BY, you can also specify ASCENDING directly after a sort field to define ascending order explicitly as the sort sequence for this field.
Addition 3
... DESCENDING
Effect
Sorts in descending order. If the addition comes right after SORT, DESCENDING is taken as the default for all fields of the sort key.
With the addition BY, you can also specify DESCENDING directly after a sort field.
Addition 4
... AS TEXT
Effect
Text fields are sorted appropriate to the locale. This means that the relative order of characters is defined according to the text environment being used.
When an internal mode is opened (in other words, when a roll area is opened), the text environment is automatically set to the logon language specified in the user master record. If necessary, however, you can change the text environment explicitly in your program by using a SET-LOCALE statement.
If the addition comes directly after itab, locale-specific rules are used for all fields of the sort key where the type of these fields is C or W. After the sort, the sequence of entries usually does not match the sequence which results otherwise, without using the addition AS TEXT, i.e. with binary sorting.
With the addition BY, you can also specify AS TEXT directly after a sort field, provided it is of type C or W, or a structured type. Otherwise, a runtime error occurs. In sort fields with a structured type, AS TEXT only affects subcomponents with type C or W.
In case of an invalid character, a SYSLOG message is written, and the respective record is inserted at the end.
Note
Please keep the rules for site-specific sorting in mind.
Example
Sort a name table with different keys:
TYPES: BEGIN OF PERSON_TYPE,
         NAME(10)   TYPE C,
         AGE        TYPE I,
         COUNTRY(3) TYPE C,
       END OF PERSON_TYPE.
DATA: PERSON TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF PERSON_TYPE WITH
                  NON-UNIQUE DEFAULT KEY INITIAL SIZE 5,
      WA_PERSON TYPE PERSON_TYPE.
WA_PERSON-NAME    = 'Muller'. WA_PERSON-AGE = 22.
WA_PERSON-COUNTRY = 'USA'.
APPEND WA_PERSON TO PERSON.
WA_PERSON-NAME    = 'Moller'. WA_PERSON-AGE = 25.
WA_PERSON-COUNTRY = 'FRG'.
APPEND WA_PERSON TO PERSON.
WA_PERSON-NAME    = 'Möller'. WA_PERSON-AGE = 22.
WA_PERSON-COUNTRY = 'USA'.
APPEND WA_PERSON TO PERSON.
WA_PERSON-NAME    = 'Miller'. WA_PERSON-AGE = 23.
WA_PERSON-COUNTRY = 'USA'.
APPEND WA_PERSON TO PERSON.
SORT PERSON.
Now, the sequence of the table entries is as follows:
Miller 23 USA
Moller 25 FRG
Muller 22 USA
Möller 22 USA
If, for example, you apply German sort rules where the umlaut comes directly after the letter 'o' in the sort, the data record beginning with 'Möller' would not be in the right place in this sequence. It should come second.
Provided a German-language locale is set (e.g. sorting is according to German grammatical rules, see also SET LOCALE), you can sort the names according to German rules as follows:
SORT PERSON BY NAME AS TEXT.
Now, the sequence of table entries is as follows:
Miller 23 USA
Moller 25 FRG
Möller 22 USA
Muller 22 USA
Further examples:
SORT PERSON DESCENDING BY COUNTRY AGE NAME.
Now, the sequence of table entries is as follows:
Miller 23 USA
Möller 22 USA
Muller 22 USA
Moller 25 FRG
SORT PERSON DESCENDING BY AGE ASCENDING NAME AS TEXT.
Now, the sequence of table entries is as follows:
Muller 22 USA
Möller 22 USA
Miller 23 USA
Moller 25 FRG
Addition 5
... STABLE
Effect
Uses a stable sort, that is, the relative sequence of entries that have the same sort key remains unchanged.
Unlike additions 2 to 4, you cannot use this addition directly after a sort field.
Notes
General:
The number of sort fields is restricted to 250.
The sort process is only stable if you use the STABLE addition. Otherwise, a predefined sequence of fields used to sort a list is not usually retained.
It does not make sense to use the SORT command for a SORTED TABLE. If the table type is statically declared, the system returns a syntax error if you try to SORT the table. If the table type is not statically declared (for example, because the table was passed to a FORM routine as an INDEX TABLE in a parameter), and the system can interpret the SORT statement as an empty operation, it ignores the statement. This is the case when the key in the BY clause corresponds to the beginning of the table key. Otherwise, a runtime error occurs.
To delete all duplicate entries from a sorted internal table (e.g. just after SORT), you can use the DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM itab statement.
When using the addition AS TEXT, the sequence of entries after the sort does not usually match the sequence resulting from a binary sort, i.e. if the addition AS TEXT is not specified. The consequence of this is that after the SORT, you are not allowed to access with the READ TABLE itab ... BINARY SEARCH statement.
If you still want to access data sorted apppropriate to the locale with a binary search, you can do this by including an additional component in the table where you can explictly store the data formatted using the CONVERT TEXT ... INTO SORTABLE CODE statement. This is also recommended for performance reasons if you have to re-sort the table several times according to locale-specific criteria.
If the internal table has more than 2^19 lines or is larger than 12 MB, the system sorts it physically using an external auxiliary file. You can specify the directory in which the file should be created using the SAP profile parameter DIR_SORTTMP. By default, the system uses the SAP data directory (SAP profile parameter DIR_DATA).
Notes
Performance:
The runtime required to sort an internal table increases with the number of entries and the length of the sort key.
Sorting an internal table with 100 entries with a 50 byte key requires about 1300 msn (standardized microseconds). Using a 30-byte key, the runtime is about 950 msn.
If one of the specified sort criteria is itself an internal table, SORT may sometimes take much longer.
The runtime increases if you use a stable sort.
Physical sorting reduces the runtime required for subsequent sequential processing.
Reward If Useful.

Get the Common from Two Internal Tables with same structure

Hi ,
I need to get the Common data from Two Internal Tables with same structure with using the looping method.
For e.g.
I have two internal table say ITAB1 and ITAB2.
ITAB1 has values A,B,C,D,E,F
ITAB2 has values A,H,B,Y,O
Output at runtime should be : A,B

Hi mohit,
1. If u want to compare all fields,
   for matching purpose,
   then we can do like this.
2.
report abc.
data : a like t001 occurs 0 with header line.
data : b like t001 occurs 0 with header line.
loop at a.
LOOP AT B.
    IF A = B.
      WRITE :/ 'SAME'.
    ENDIF.
endloop.

Display 2 different structured internal tables in single screen using ALV

Hi,
I have two internal tables. Both has different structures. My requirement is to display both the internal tables in single screen using ALV Grid but NOT using OO ALV Grid display.
Is there any way of spliting the Final ALV display screen into two with two different headers and details as shown below.
Header1 for internal table 1
Data of internal table 1
Header1 for internal table 2
Data of internal table 2
Can anyone suggest a better way to display this.
Regards,
Senthil

hi
first think i can say ALV GRID means only for OO ALV it is not possible to display two I.T. data in singr report screen.
better to use of the fm: REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_DISPLAY
so that u can display both I.T. data in separate report list under single screen
Check the example programs:
BALVBT01 Testprogram ALV: Block list
BCALV_TEST_BLOCK_LIST Program BCALV_TEST_BLOCK_LIST

No, I haven't and most probably I will not, at least in the foreseeable future.

Two fact tables with same dimensions

Good Morning,
I am just assigned to a new project. This is my first maintenance request: two fact tables F1 and F2 that shares same set of dimemsion tables D1 and D2. In the Answers report, if I use a foreign key in either F1 or F2, for example F1.k1, I get an error of meta data inconsistency. But if I use same column from dimension table D1.k1, then no error.
Your help is very much appreciated.

Downloading two internal tables in same text file

I have one internal table as like below.
Data:begin of itab1 occurs 0,
     rec(5),
     end of itab1.
Itab1 is getting updated from input text file(Continuous text).
Here Itab1 contains one record with Indicator '01 and n number of records with indicator '02'.
This needs to be seperated in to two internal tables.
data:Begin of Itab_Head occurs 0,
     Rec_ind(2) type C,
     Name(3) type C,
     end of itab_Head.
data:Begin of Itab_Item occurs 0,
     Rec_ind(2) type C,
     Id(3) type C,
     Status(10,
     end of itab_Item.
loop at itab1.
If itab1-Rec+0(2) = '01'.
   Itab_Head-Rec_Ind = itab1-rec+0(2).
   Itab_Head-Name = itab1-rec+2(3).
   Append Itab_Head.
elseif itab1-rec+0(2) = '02'.
   Itab_Item-Rec_Ind = itab1-rec+0(2).
   Itab_Item-Id = itab1-rec+2(3).
   Append Itab_Item.
endif.
endloop.
After moving to the internal tables I am doing some processing and updating the status of Itab_item.
After all these again I have to download the internal table as a text file.Now my question is.
I have values in 2 diff internal tables.How to download the two in same file.

Two users (on the same Mac) using same RAID simultaneously?

O.K. I know you should never never ever connect two different Macs to the same RAID unless using Xsan. . .
How about connecting two users on the same Mac simultaneously?
In other words, can I have one user manipulating data on the RAID in the background while reading the data using a second user (on the same Mac)?
Thanks,
Ed

That depends on the application in question.
Since all the data requests are coming from the same Mac, you don't have the issues you would have if you had two different machines talking at the same time.
However, it now depends on whether the application(s) you're using supports file locks.
As long as the application that's manipulating the data properly locks the part of the file it's working on, and that the application you're using to read the file reads the locks and knows whether or not it's OK to use that part of the file, you should be OK.

Combine two ints into a long without using chars or strings.

Hi
I have two ints and i need to combine (not add) them into a long value. The reason for this is because I need the make keys for a DB containing both values.
eg.
int1 = 3567453647
int2= 6368535795
long combination = combine(int1, int2);
and the value of combination should be 35674536476368535795
I know you can doing it by turning the ints into strings, combining the strings and then using the combined string as intput to a new Long(String) but I really need a faster way using pure maths (maybe bit shift?) as this combination function will be used billions of times.
Thanks

SQL*Loader will not pass through the filename for you to be able to insert into a table.

Please post DDL, so that people do not have to guess what the keys, constraints, Declarative Referential Integrity, data types, etc. in your schema are. Learn how to follow ISO-11179 data element naming conventions and formatting rules. Temporal data should
use ISO-8601 formats. Code should be in Standard SQL as much as possible and not local dialect.
This is minimal polite behavior on SQL forums. Where is the code you already tried? Or are you so lazy, so rude or so privileged that you did not do anything for yourself?
In fact that silly “tbl-” prefix is so bad that it has a name! It is called Tibbling and Phil Factor even wrote a humor article on bad programmers that use it.
Your narrative is vague; it sounds like this is the DDL:
CREATE TABLE Incomes
(payment_month CHAR(10) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
income_amt DECIMAL(12,2) NOT NULL

I hope not! 2014 has not gotten to September, November or December yet! And the ISO-11179 data element name should be “payment_month”; but it is still wrong! An expense is not a payment! An income is not a payment!

Report Period Table
Since SQL is a database language, we prefer to do look ups and not calculations. They can be optimized while temporal math messes up optimization. A useful idiom is a report period calendar that everyone uses so there is no way to get disagreements in the DML.
The report period table gives a name to a range of dates that is common to the entire enterprise.
CREATE TABLE Something_Report_Periods
(something_report_name CHAR(10) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
CHECK (something_report_name LIKE <pattern>),
something_report_start_date DATE NOT NULL,
something_report_end_date DATE NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT date_ordering
CHECK (something_report_start_date <= something_report_end_date),
etc);
These report periods can overlap or have gaps. I like the MySQL convention of using double zeroes for months and years, That is 'yyyy-mm-00' for a month within a year and 'yyyy-00-00' for the whole year. The advantages are that it will sort with the ISO-8601
data format required by Standard SQL and it is language independent. The pattern for validation is '[12][0-9][0-9][0-9]-00-00' and '[12][0-9][0-9][0-9]-[01][0-9]-00'
Now figure it out for yourself, show us what effort you put into this, then we will help you.
