How to delete the Contents in a transaction?

Hi all.
I had a definite transaction that will be run by a pgm having 5 columns in a table.Now the users dont need 2 columns .
How can we delete the contents of that table?
Reply soon.
Regards,
SSR.

I am not 100% sure what you mean.
Do you only want to remove the two columns from the report (assumed it is a Z-report)
In that case if it is an ALV list, just remove the fields from the field catalog and the user won't be able to see them any more.
If it is just a standard list, you would have to remove the write statements for those two columns.
For standard reports there is not much you can do without doing a mod or in case of an ALV list create a variant for that user which hides the fields he doesn't want to see. The variant is an option for the Z-reports as well.
If you are talking about fields in a database table you would like to remove (assumed that it is a Z-table, you can just remove the fields in transaction SE11. After deleting the fields you will have to use the Database Utility (SE11-Utilities-Database Object- Database Utilities - Activate and Adjust Database). This will remove the columns including the data in it from that table.
Never remove any fields from a standard table - even deleting values out of certain columns for standard tables is a very bad idea unless you really exactly know what you are doing.
Hope that helps,

How to delete the data from partition table

Hi all,
Am very new to partition concepts in oracle..
here my question is how to delete the data from partition table.
is the below query will work ?
delete from table1 partition (P_2008_1212)
we have define range partition ...
or help me how to delete the data from partition table.
Thanks
Sree

delete from table1 partition (P_2008_1212)This approach is wrong - as Andre pointed, this is not how partition tables should be used.
Oracle supports different structures for data and indexes. A table can be a hash table or index organised table. It can have B+tree index. It can have bitmap indexes. It can be partitioned. Etc.
How the table implements its structure is a physical design consideration.
Application code should only deal with the logical data structure. How that data structure is physically implemented has no bearing on application. Does your application need to know what the indexes are and the names of the indexes,in order to use a table? Obviously not. So why then does your application need to know that the table is partitioned?
When your application code starts referring directly to physical partitions, it needs to know HOW the table is partitioned. It needs to know WHAT partitions to use. It needs to know the names of the partitions. Etc.
And why? All this means is increased complexity in application code as this code now needs to know and understand the physical data structure. This app code is now more complex, has more moving parts, will have more bugs, and will be more complex to maintain.
Oracle can take an app SQL and it can determine (based on the predicates of the SQL), which partitions to use and not use for executing that SQL. All done totally transparently. The app does not need to know that the table is even partitioned.
This is a crucial concept to understand and get right.

Hi Naren,
First get the index number of the IT_data table and store it in one variable whose declaration like this.
data: tabix type sy-tabix.
while reading the internal table it_data set the tabix variable.
tabix = sy-tabix.
Instead of the above use below one.
Delete it_data-objek
Use the Below statement it will delete the row from the internal table.
Delete it_data-objek index tabix

WD ABAP: How to get the contents of selected table lines?

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to get the contents of table lines back from the UI. I display a table with several lines of data. The user selects some rows. I want to move the contents of the selected rows to another table. I have a context attribute, say DATA, with attributes FIELD1... FIELDn, using a DDIC structure. These are bound to the table UI element and the corresponding table columns. To get the selected rows, I use wd_context->get_selected_elements(). This works, but what I get from this method is references to if_wd_context_element. How do I know which row (row number = ?) this corresponds to? And how do I get the actual data? I want a structure with FIELD1 = value1 FIELD2 = value2 etc. My context attributes FIELD refer to table columns, but I'm looking for the table line...
Can somebody help me?
Thanks,
Ira

Hi Ira,
wd_context->get_selected_elements() returns WDR_CONTEXT_ELEMENT_SET which is a table type of IF_WD_CONTEXT_ELEMENT. You can loop through the WDR_CONTEXT_ELEMENT_SET, get into variable say node_elelement which is of type ref to If_Wd_Context_Element. Then you could use the method GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES of If_Wd_Context_Element which returns a structure with values of all the attributes in the selected row.
If you need the row number, while populating the node you could have an additional attribute called rowno and populate it correctly. When you select the data using method GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES, you would get the appropriate row number.

Srini.

How to search the content in a Table

Hi all,
    How can i search the content in a table. is there any UI Element is there to do this? Can any body give me any sample code for this
regards,
VJR

Hi,
you gotta do that programmatically,
here is a sample code:
int sizeOfstudent = wdContext.nodeCtx_vn_student().size();
//Ctx_vn_student is the node associated with the table ie its dataSource property
String filtername = wdcontext.currentContextElement.getSName();
//sName is the name to be searched , it is a context attribute
          for(int i = sizeOfstudent-1;i>=0;i--)
               String matchValue = recNode.getElementAt(i).getAttributeAsText("Name");
//get the name of 1st record(in table) or 1st elememnt in node, "Name" here is value attribute of that node
//so we are fetching its value and comparing it like..
               if(matchValue.equalsIgnoreCase(filtername))
                    //here you can add the action to be taken on mathing name                }
hope it helps

How to check the contents of MCVBAK table?

Hi all of you,
I am using MCVBAK table for extraction using LIS. The problem I am facing is when I am running the init load in BW for my IS S511, it is successfully running but in the monitor screens it says only 1 from 1 record. I thought that there are no records in the table MCVBAK so I wanted to make sure if there are really no records in MCVBAK table.
So I went to R/3 gave the T.C SE11 and entered the table MCVBAK to check its contents. But in the MCVBAK table what I find is the graphics button and contents button are invisible. My question is
How to find the contents of the table MCVBAK?
Please help.
Thank you,
Tristan.

Hi TR,
Yah, you need to check VBAK Table at SE11, Things that start with "MC...." are usually structures. Anther point, I want to mention is, When you schedule as Init load at the BW side, the system will get the data from S511 table(which is Information Structure table). So, you have do statistical setup first (at eg for sales Tcode is oli7) which will copy the records from VBAK table to your Information Structure (i.e S511).Only then, you can perform Init Load. Hope this Info help!

Vj

How to delete the content of a datatable by the "Database Adapter"

Hello,
i want to delete all entries in a table by a database adapter - like "DELETE FROM table" in SQL. (Oracle SOA Suite 11g SR1, with Oracle DB over JDBC))
When i create a new Database adapter i can select standard functions for "insert, select, delete". The function delete does have the disadvantage, that it needs a input message with the key values of the data entry which have to be deleted, which i don't have and don't want to get.
So i tried the "Pure SQL" mode for the adapter with the SQL string "DELETE FROM table" but this instruction is somehow not commited to the database.
My questions are:
- Is there any commit needed for the pure sql instructions? How is the syntax to write several SQL instructions for one Database Adapter?
- Does anyone have another solution to delete the entries?
Thanx in advance
Tobias

Hi Shishir,
it is a pretty simple example. I think the problem is that the Database Adapter is not commiting.
The BPEL is simple sending an empty message to the adapter which should trigger the SQL execution (See Code below)
The PURE SQL String i'm using is "DELETE FROM table"
Thanks Tobias

How to show the content of a table (long text) in a scrollable textbox?

Hi,
I have to say first, many thanks to the ones who answers to threads in this forum, it's very helpfull when we're learning web dynpro!
I have a RFC function that return a table containing a long text (node "it_text", with elements "Tdformat" and "Tdline").
1) I want first to copy all the Tdlines in a new node "text_box" (that I made specially for the screen, it contains only the element "Tdline" [the text itself]);
2) Then I want to show the content of the node "text_box" in a scrollable textbox on the screen (to show 8 lines of text, for example).
How to do that easily? What is the UI Element needed to show that?
Thanks!

If you want to display as it is then you can use Table UI element. You can change the design property to 'transparent' and set column header visibility property to none. Then you need not to write any code simple you can map the node to table field.
Even with TextEdit you can achieve what you want. Try this code...
     StringBuffer tmpBuffer = new StringBuffer();
     for(int index=0;index<wdContext.nodeLines().size();index++)
          wdContext.nodeLines().setLeadSelection(index);
          tmpBuffer.append(wdContext.currentLinesElement().getLine()+"n");
     wdContext.currentContextElement().setData(tmpBuffer.toString());
