Problem in excuting select statement

Question

Hi,
I have created simple report and in start-of-selection i have writen select statement with bukrs and lifnr as parameters. But i am unable to execute the query.
find the code
start-of-selection.
  select bukrs
         lifnr
         name1
         name2
         name3
         from zapv_names
         into table it_zapv
         where  bukrs  =  p_bukrs
         and  lifnr =  p_lifnr.
I am not under stand why it is not working. The code is correct. I have taken names as zname field and others are standered data elements.
Thanks,

Answer 1

I'm going to take a wild guess that since you show this to be the first statement
after the START-OF-SELECTION line, that is is coming from a report program
where the two field you are testing for are actually RANGEs on the selection screen.
select bukrs
lifnr
name1
name2
name3
from zapv_names
into table it_zapv
where bukrs = p_bukrs   " This is likely a RANGE
and lifnr = p_lifnr.           " This is likely a RANGE
Change them to this
select bukrs
lifnr
name1
name2
name3
from zapv_names
into table it_zapv
where bukrs IN p_bukrs   " This is likely a RANGE
and lifnr IN p_lifnr.           " This is likely a RANGE
Ranges would be tables and have value like 'IEQ0101' where with the = sign would never be equal.
