One select Statement - Number of hits displaying in ST05

Question

Hi,
I am using single select statement on MARA table along with that using SELECT FOR ALL Entries,
However, I am getting number of hits for each records in ST05 like 2,3,8,2,2 etc.
I need to reduce number of hits by using single query only... please suggest..
Thanks,
Sai

Hi Siegfried,
just out of curiosity:

What exactly do you mean with the last point?
fieldlist in the select statement like this?
data it like table of t100.
select sprsl arbgb msgnr
  from t100 into table it up to 500 rows.
  select "sprsl" from t100 into table it
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN it
    where sprsl = it-sprsl
    and arbgb = it-arbgb
    and msgnr = it-msgnr.
or field list in the where clause like this?
data it like table of t100.
select sprsl arbgb msgnr
  from t100 into table it up to 50000 rows.
  DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM it COMPARING  sprsl arbgb.
  select sprsl from t100 into table it
    FOR ALL ENTRIES IN it
    where "sprsl" = it-sprsl
    and "arbgb" = it-arbgb.
Or something else?
I'm asking because i've never heard or seen this before as a problem reg. identicals
for FAE. Only duplicates in driver tables or multiple executions of the FAE with the same
driver table contents (or parts of it).
If we have a smaller select field list we may read too many records which are thrown away in thd database interface
because of the distinct property of the FAE (distinct sprsl in the 2nd case) but we don't see identical selects in ST05.
How does a FAE that produces identical selects with unique driver table that is executed once look like?
So I'm a little bit confused what you meant here... .
Kind regards,
Hermann
