Hi Folks,
I have an issue while creating program using field symbols My requirement is I need to develop a program to get table counts with respect to username and date .For that I wrote below program
REPORT  ZDYNAMICFIELDS.
PARAMETERS: TABNAM TYPE DD03L-TABNAME.
PARAMETERS: FLD1 TYPE DD03L-FIELDNAME.
PARAMETERS: FLD2 TYPE DD03L-FIELDNAME.
DATA: FIELD1 TYPE REF TO DATA,
      FIELD2 TYPE REF TO DATA.
CREATE DATA: FIELD1 TYPE (FLD1),
             FIELD2 TYPE (FLD2).
*FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FLD1> TYPE ANY,
              <FLD2> TYPE ANY.
ASSIGN: FIELD1-> TO <FLD1>,
       FIELD2->* TO <FLD2>.
DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB,
      FIELD1 LIKE FIELD1,
      FIELD2 LIKE FIELD2,
      END OF ITAB.
DATA: ITAB1 TYPE REF TO DATA.
CREATE DATA: ITAB1 TYPE TABLE OF ITAB.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FS_IT> type standard table.
ASSIGN: ITAB1->* TO <FS_IT> .
DATA: STR TYPE STRING.
CONCATENATE FLD1 FLD2 INTO STR SEPARATED BY ''.
CONDENSE STR.
SELECT (STR) FROM (TABNAM) INTO TABLE <FS_IT> UP TO 1000 ROWS.
write:/ 'total number of records' ,sy-dbcnt.
But this is not working for DATE and TIME fileld,
Can anyone please help me to resolve this issue....
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Sreedhar,
Are you trying to achieve something like this?
SELECT * FROM (p_table) INTO TABLE <gt_itab>.
  READ TABLE <gt_itab> ASSIGNING <gs_result>
          WITH KEY (lw_key_field1) = p_cond1
                   (lw_key_field2) = p_cond2
                   (lw_key_field3) = p_cond3
                   BINARY SEARCH.
  IF sy-subrc = 0.
    WRITE / 'Record found.'.
  ELSE.
    WRITE / 'No record found.'.
  ENDIF.
where p_table, p_cond1 etc., are selection screen parameters? I found such example in the link below

Hope it helps.
