Internal table length

Hi Experts ,
Please look at the decleration below
types: BEGIN OF TY_FINAL ,
TEXT(300) ,
END OF TY_FINAL .
what is more intresting is that it is not able to hold value in field TEXT with
more length
for example i am trying to store below value
PX,"0000000000","000010","0000002","07/26/2007@00:00:01","07/26/2007@23:59:00","07/26/2007@00:00:01","07/26/2007@23:59:59",000.000,000.000,000000.000,0000000.4360,0000020.0000,00000000000.00,00000000000.00,0000020.0000,0000000000000.0000,0000002,0000001,0000.0000,111.0000,00000.0000,00000
BUT INTERNAL TABLE IS HOLDING value till
PX,"0000000000","000010","0000002","07/26/2007@00:00:01","07/26/2007@23:59:00","07/26/2007@00:00:01","07/26/2007@23:59:59",000.000,000.000,000000.000,0000000.4360,0000020.0000,00000000000.00,00000000000.00,0000020.0000,0000000000000.0000,0000002,0000001
even though i increase the size of the internal table nothing is happening

it's giving me error
"T_FINAL" cannot be a table, a reference, a string, or contain any of
these objects
when i declared in manner in which you said

Application server file length to internal table

i am having a flat file in the appliaction server and it is 350 characters length stored for each line.
i mean like purchase order,matner,material text, kunnr,customer address etc, this all will be 365 chars including spaces.
I have decalred the file path like
file(150) type c.
so in file i store the physical path.
Now i used the statement to read the data into by itab , which has all the fields of applicaion server file .
Do
Read dataset file into waitab.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
     APPEND waitab TO itab.
    CLEAR waitab.
ENDDO.
1)My doubt is that
experts
i am simply using Read dataset file into waitab. and i did not mentioned the lenght of the file anywhere in the program? Will the system move all the 365 chars into waitab?
Or do i need to mention the lenght of the file?
2)Suppose my file is like this
1212222 2283838 2839293 383839283 38e439 3u39393 3839839 383993 2837383 38739378 3u873983
Now my itab will be
filed1(10),file2(7),field3(8),field4(7),filed5(8).
so in this case the first 10 chars of the file will be placed in field1,
next 7chars will be placed in field2, is it including spaces?
Here my file lenght is more than the itab, in this case what will happen?Beacuse my need is to have file first line into one record of itab , second line into another record , etc?

Maximum record length in internal table?

Is there a maximum record length in an internal table? Please note: My question is NOT related to table space. I'm referring only to the length of an individual record (A.K.A. row length).
I am using a work area to insert data into an internal table. Both the work area and internal table are defined by the same structure.
The structure has a total length of 672 bytes. For the sake of this discussion I'll point out that at the end of the structure, bytes 669, 670, 671, and 672 are four separate fields of 1 character each.
When viewing the work area record in the debugger I'm seeing all the fields and all the values. When viewing the internal table in the debugger after a record is inserted, the internal table ends with the field defined at Byte 670. The internal table does not include the two fields defined at Bytes 671 and 672.
Am I to assume from the above explanation that the length of a record ( A.K.A. row) in an internal table cannot exceed 670 bytes?
Thank you.

Manish,
False alarm! While, technically, you didn't answer my question, your request for code ended up helping me answer my own question.
To provide you with some code I wrote a simple test program using the record layout referred to above, with a DO loop to put some records into the internal table, followed by a LOOP AT, with accompanying WRITE statements to display the contents of the internal table and demonstrate that the last two fields weren't being stored.
However, when I ran the test program, the last two fields were being displayed.
It was at that point, when stepping through the debugger that I noticed the scroll arrows above the last column of my internal table that allowed me to scroll to the right and see my final two fields.
Apparently, because of the large number of fields in my internal table I had reached the default display length of the debugger. While I was obviously aware of the scroll bar found at the bottom of the display, I had never worked with an internal table of that width in the past and hadn't even noticed the scroll arrows above the last column before.
Thanks for taking the time to respond helping me get to the solution.

What is the best way to declare field length 500 in internal table?

Hi all,
what is the best way to declare field length 500(constant value allways) in internal table?
I am trying to send data from internal table to file format, and I have a field in internal table with 500 length (constant value always). So how do I can declare and append this field value to table?
Thanks

Length ogf Internal Table

Hi,
I am using GUI_UPLOAD to upload the file from presentation server to my internal table. My problem is that the one of the records of testfile is 3000 in length. The internal table is not showing all the data from the testfile. is there any limitation to the record length of an internal table??

Length of value of c field in internal table

Hi experts,
how do I find out the lenght of the value which is an CHARACTER field in an internal table.
I get a .XLS file from the customer. To check where the real entries starts I need to know the length of one field in the internal table.
How do I do this?
I tried it with DESCRIBE, but it doesn't work because the c field is interpreted hexadecimal.
Example:
all fields in my table are c(30), the value in one column is max. 3 letters. I want to find out the row where the entry in this field is 3 letters long.
Edited by: Heiko Kany on Sep 3, 2008 8:49 AM

Hi Heiko,
You can find the length using the STRLEN function as given below;
DATA : ipstr TYPE string.
DATA : len TYPE i VALUE 0.
ipstr = 'Sample String'.
len = STRLEN( ipstr )
After execution len will contain 13.

Field length in internal table

hi,
how to selt field length in internal table?.
i have created on report the report out puts down load to using download function .
the out format is:
op1 op2   op3      op4
1     3       4
i want
op1   op2   op3       op4
1                3          4
how to set this please give sample code.

HI,
Give internal table like this.
DATA: BEGIN OF itab OCCURS 100,
            op1(04),
            op2(04),
op3(04),
op4(04),
      END OF itab.
So it will allocate space between 1, 3 and 4.
Reward if it useful.
Thanks.

Identifying the maximum length of a record in internal table

Hi,
Im using an internal table for a string for some requirement.
Now, at later point of time i need to use for CHAR variable to copy the data from the above internal table.
I need to identify the max length of the record stored in this internal table so that i can assign that much length to this CHAR variable.
Is there any standard fm or any abap stmts.
Thanks
rohith

You have to Loop the entire Itab to find the Maximum length of the record stored.
Just like this:
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
        v_str1 type string,
      end of itab.
data: v_len type i.
data: v_len1 type i.
itab-v_str1 = 'mahesh sap abap'.
append itab. clear itab.
itab-v_str1 = 'mahesh'.
append itab. clear itab.
itab-v_str1 = 'mahesh sap'.
append itab. clear itab.
loop at itab.
v_len = strlen( itab-v_str1 ).
if v_len > v_len1.
    v_len1 = v_len.
else.
    continue.
endif.
clear: v_len.
endloop.
write:/ 'Max Length', v_len1.

In this fld1 to fld135 are defined in internal table.
But if the number of fields are more than 135 then the program is going to short dump.
Some times fld1 to fid170 or more fields will be there in my internal table.
Please suggest me how to make my requirement dynamic and display this data fetched into this internal table onto a .XLS file in the presentation server ?

Hi
You can try to use the type string:
form like zscr_data_hdr-form,
werks like zscr_data_hdr-werks,
matnr like zscr_data_hdr-matnr,
verid like zscr_data_hdr-verid,
lot like zscr_data_hdr-lot,
lot_qty like zscr_data_hdr-lot_qty,
udate like zscr_data_hdr-udate,
utime like zscr_data_hdr-utime,
zuser like zscr_data_hdr-zuser,
processed like zscr_data_hdr-processed,
defect like zscr_defect_data-defect,
vornr like zscr_route_data-vornr,
fieldxx type string,
dayst like zscr_data_hdr-dayst,
end of t_data.
So you can save you informations of every fld<n> concatenating their values into fieldxx.

How to know the length of internal table...

Hello experts,
How can I know the line size of my internal table since it will be dynamic
and I am just writing my report manually(not ALV) so I will be using sy-uline,
sy-vline, sy-linsz, etc.
So I can declare my sy-ulines according to the total length of my output.
Also, is this possible in ALV:
Header 1               *
      Header 2             *
         -OUTPUT-
Thanks again!

Hi
You can use the DESCRIBE statement to get the number of lines in an internal table:
DATA: num_lines TYPE i.
DESCRIBE TABLE itab LINES num_lines.
num_lines will now hold the number of lines in your table.
I don't believe you can have multiple header rows in ALV you will probably need to group your records or summarise them to achieve a similar result.
Hope this helps
Andy

Sorry, I misunderstood your requirement, using the DESCRIBE TABLE statement will fill the system field sy-tleng with the line size so immediately after doing DESCRIBE... just pass sy-tleng to an integer type variable.
Kind regards
Andy

What is the maximal line length of type any internal table

Dear all,
who can tell me what is the maximal line length of type any internal table.
Thanks!

There is no limit to the record length of an internal table.
There is overall memory limit for every program (as setup by your basis). So, depending on the width of the ITAB, the number of records in ITAB is limited by the assigned memory.

Problem to upload the data into internal table record length more than 6000

Hi all
I stuck with this problem from past 3 days. I have to upload the data from excel sheet. iam making it tab delimited and trying to upload from gui_upload. but in the structure of file, we have, one field of 4000 characters, and other fields of 255 characters.
how can i upload this into internal table . From excel sheet or from tab delimeted or any other format? or any special function module is there? while iam doing this its truncating the datat 255 characters and not uploading the other fields also...
can any one of you help me out. ASAP
thnks in advance

from one of the forum iam just pasting code which it is used in lsmw, try the same logic in ur code hope it can work.
you have to create multiple lines with do...enddo loop., like this:
(assuming excel_long_text-text is 924 characters long, 7 lines X 132 char)
__GLOBAL_DATA__
data: offset type i,
text_132(132) type c.
__BEGIN_OF_RECORD__ Before Using Conversion Rules
Rule : Default Settings Modified
Code: /sapdmc/ltxtl = init_/sapdmc/ltxtl.
CLEAR offset.
DO 7 TIMES.
text_132 = excel_long_text-text+offset(132).
offset = offset + 132.
__END_OF_RECORD__ After Using Conversion Rules
Rule : Default Settings Modified
Code: transfer_record.
ENDDO.
also check this
COMMIT_TEXT

Reg: Max length of internal table field(GUI_UPLOAD)

Hi All,
In my internal table there is a field for long text(free text/string), when i using GUI_UPLOAD the field max char is 255, so i couldnt get the full text, eventhough i declared that particular long text as string. Can any one tell me how to get the free text.
And i am uploading data from presentation server, not from app server.
Thanks in advance.

You have to cook your own logic. But what is the reason for not sorting the table?
If you do not want to disturb the main intrenal table, you can move the contents into a temporary internal table, and sort it by descending order. The first record would have the maximum value.
here is a logic to find the maximum value.
loop at itab.
if itab-value > v_max.
v_max = itab-value.
endif.
endlop.
V_max would have the maximum value at the end lo the loop.

Uploading excel file into internal table with field length more than 255

I am trying to upload the data from an excel file through function module 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'.
I have tested by changing the field type from string, and char2000.
But it is accepting only 255 chars from the cell content.
How to get the total content of the field if it is more than 255 char.

hi,
you can use any of the following procedures:
For uploading data from excel to internal table refer standard report RC1TCG3Z in se38 :
                                           or
You can use the FM 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE' itself. Please check if you have done it this way . But, this FM can be a little time consuming if the excel has large data, so you can use the FM u2018GUI_UPLOADu2019.
