the the last iam stuck up with a small problem. i wrote the coding like this for my
program
tables:mara.
type-pools: truxs.
parameters: p_matnr like mara-matnr.
data: ixml type truxs_xml_table.
data: xxml like line of ixml.
data: size type i.
data: file_str type string.
file_str = 'C:\simp.xml'.
data: begin of itab_mara occurs 0,
          matnr like mara-matnr,
          ernam like mara-ernam,
          aenam like mara-aenam,
          vpsta like mara-vpsta,
      end of itab_mara.
select matnr ernam aenam vpsta from mara into table itab_mara up to 5
rows where matnr = p_matnr.
