Read the last record in the database table..

Hi..
I am new to ABAP. So i have one condition to read the address number field in the last record from database table by using the person number where clause field.
But the person number is same for some the records.
So can any tell me the logic for to read the addressnumber field in the last record of selected records from database where personnumber is equal to some thing.
Please help me..
Thanks
venki

Hi Venkat ,
u mean to say
person number addressnumber
aa1            0000000000001
aa1            0000000000002
aa1            0000000000003
aa1            0000000000004
aa2            0000000000021
aa3            0000000000110
if i have to read the addressnumber 00000000000004
of the person number aa1
u can go like
data v_address number like addressnumber.
sort itab by personnumber addressnumber
loop at itab .
at end of personnumber.
move addressnumber to v_addressnumber ..
endat.
endloop.
so using control break statements i can fetch the last record of my person number if at all the same person number is having more than one address number ..
hope this helps,
Regards,
Vijay

Selecting the last record from a database table

In my ABAP Program, I have to use a select statement to retrieve the last record from the database table with the same key. In other words, the Program will get more than one hit on the database table for the selected keys and I need to retrieve values from only the last record and not the first. I know I can use an internal table to sort the records first and then retrieve the right value.   But to make things easier, is there a SELECT statement keyword than I can use to do this in one single step? Thanks!

hi,
tables:mara.
    data: begin of it_mara occurs 0,
            matnr like mara-matnr,
            meins like mara-meins,
            mtart like mara-mtart,
            end of it_mara.
select-options:s_matnr for mara-matnr.
select matnr
          meins
          mtart
from mara
into table it_mara
where matnr in s_matnr.
if not it_mara[] is initial.
sort it_mara by matnr descending.
read table it_mara index 1.
endif.
then you get the last record of the select statement.

How to get the last row of a database table.

HI ,
I want to get record exactly from the last row of a database table.
How is that possible?

Hi,
To fetch last record from an internal table, just do find the number of records in it and read using index.
DESCRIBE TABLE ITAB LINES L_LINES.
READ TABLE ITAB INDEX L_LINES.
You can also use LOOP .. ENDLOOP but the above method is better (performance wise).
using LOOP .. ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT ITAB.
**do nothing
ENDLOOP.
**process ITAB (Header record of ITAB).
**after ENLOOP, ITAB will have the last record of the internal table.
[here ITAB is internal table as well as header record.]
But what is the requirement?
If you are looking for the current record of an employee then you can use ENDDA = HIGH_DATE.
My advice is to review your requirement again and try to fetch only that record which you need.

Need to fetch the last record/row from a table

Hi,
I have a requirement like fetching the closing balance of the last record of the table and inserting the same into the opening balance of the immediatetly created next record.
In simple words, I need to fetch a value from the last row of the record.
For example, I use the below query,
select rownum, empno, ename from emp
where rownum = (select count(rownum) from emp);
But, the above query does not return any of the record.
Hence, need help on this.
Regards,

Rows in a table are inherently unordered. In order to introduce the concept of "first" and "last", you would need to specify how to order the rows which would require that there was one or more columns in the table that you could order by in order to determine the "last" record.
In your closing balance example, if we assume that there is something like a BALANCE_DATE column,
SELECT account_number, balance_amount, balance_date
FROM (
    SELECT account_number,
           balance_amount,
           balance_date,
           rank() over (partition by account_number order by balance_date desc) rnk
      FROM table_of_balances )
WHERE rnk = 1Justin

Read the last record of an internal table

Hello All,
I need to read the last entry of the internal table? Is it possible to achieve this without using loop - endloop?
In the following example, I need to get the Batch '110776' and store it in a variable.
ITAB:
MATNR|CHARG
010780|110770
010780|110772
010780|110773
010780|110774
010780|110775
010780|110776
Thanks.

Use DESCRIBE to get the number of entires in variable last_entry
and then use read table ....index last_entry

How to get the last record from the database

I am using MS Access database and Swings as GUI. I want to get the last record of a particular column from the table and store it as a varaible.

Hi
To get Last record of resultset, you have pass some parameter in constructor of CreateStatement.In such case Resultset should be scrollable and Readonly
Example
objStatement=objCon.createStatement ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
mwwResultSet=cwwStatement.executeQuery(mwwSqlQuery);
while(mwwResultSet.next())
if(mwwResultSet.isLast())
//Fetch the required column record.
String abc=mwwResultSet.getString(1);
I think this will work. Try it.
bye

Getting the last record from the internal table

When we use a READ statement it always picks up the first record which fulfill its condition but in my case I want to pick up the last record that fulfills it condition
I have a internal table like
id     type
N1      A
N1      T
N1      A
N1      6 ----> LAST RECORD
my code is
read table itab wIth key id = netobjid.
for eg if netobjid = N1 , then I want to read the last record that corresponds to N1 ie ID N1 TYPE - 6...
How to do that?

HI
actually i have done same requirement like this ...
Take one count variable into your internal table ..you pass the number of records into cont variable for every time u enter the loop .
Sort the internal table with count variable descending . ( AS we cant sort the internal table with sy-tabix)
Then use read statement with sy-index = 1 .
USe below logic ,............
data : count type i value '0'.
LOOP at int .
count = count + 1 .
endloop.
sort int count descending .
read int with index = 1 .

Accessing the very last record in a transparent table.

Hi!
There's any way to read the last record of a transparent table?
My problem is:
I have to access the very las record of a Z table because I need the maximun value of a numeric field (that is the first field of the primary key).
I used a SELECT MAX, with no condition , but I was asked to find a more performance solution.
There is any way to access the last record of a table? Something like we have for the internal tables with the READ TABLE INDEX N, but with a select statement?
Thanks a lot for your help!

Yes, that was my first thought, but I made a comparising between both options with SE30.
Check this numbers:
TIME: 11,377,702
select * from t100 into table t_t100.
sort t_t100 descending.
read table t_t100 index 1.
TIME: 954,218
DATA: MAX_MSGNR type t100-msgnr.
SELECT MAX( MSGNR ) FROM T100 INTO max_msgnr.
Select MAX is better...
I don't think there is a better solucion... Maybe a big brain here has an idea...
Vasanth, thanks for your quick reply!

How to get the only the last raw of the table

Hello All,
While fetching a table into internal table, how to get only the last record of the table.?
Thanks and Regards, Pradeep

I hope following code will solve your problem.
DATA : it_bseg TYPE TABLE OF bseg,
x_bseg TYPE bseg,
v_index TYPE i.
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM bseg
INTO v_index.
SELECT *
FROM bseg
INTO TABLE it_bseg.
READ TABLE it_bseg INTO x_bseg INDEX V_INDEX.
First SELECT will give you the number of rows in a table in v_index. Second SELECT will fetch all table data and then READ will give you the last record of the table in a structure x_bseg.

Not enough space to print the last record on each page

Hello,
My report looks like a simple list table, with the first row as the column header, followed by rows of records.
The fields are placed on the Detail section and they're set with "Can Grow" property. That means, records may have different row height, some may take 1 row per record, some may take 3 rows per record, depending on the data length. I use some vertical lines on the Detail section as the column seperators, and a horizontal line as the record seperator.
I've a Page Footer to show the page number and print date.
My problem is:
When the space of the last record on the current page isn't big enough, the record will be printed automatically on the second page, which is fine. But the vertical seperation lines are still displayed even though the details are printed on the second page. I got some "empty rows with vertical seperation lines" or I'd say an open-end table at the end of some pages then.
Is there a way to avoid this?
Your help is much appreciated. Thank you.
Agnes

You could draw an outline box from page header to page footer, then your internal lines would run from page header to page footer
so if the document extends to 2 pages, the page footer will print on the 1st page and therefore the bottom line of the box
only problem now would be that on the 2nd page the box will extend to the bottom of that page also, even if there is only 1 record

How to get to the last record of an APEX report automatically?

In Oracle Forms there is a "lastrec" command which can be placed after a call to a multi-row form. The records called have the last record at the bottom of the page. For example, if there are 100 records and there are 10 rows on the form, record numbers 91 through 100 would be showing. Can this be done in APEX? I have a user who wants it this way. I set the report page up to be ordered descending, which gives her last record at the top of the page, but this is not acceptable to her. She wants to see the last record, but she wants it at the bottom of the page.

Hi,
Try this query, it should order your data as you want and the report pagination is not broken!
The number of row displayed must be the same as the divide by value (ie. 10)
select your_id
from your_table
order by trunc ((DENSE_RANK() OVER ( ORDER BY your_id desc) -1) /10)
    , DENSE_RANK() OVER ( ORDER BY your_id desc) desc;
Page 1 displays 91 to 100
Page 2 displays 81 to 90
Also if your data set have 87 rows, Page 1 will display 78 to 87 (ie. the 10 last rows).
If you want more details regarding the sorting you can have a look on this query:
select your_id
     , trunc ((DENSE_RANK() OVER ( ORDER BY your_id desc) -1) /10)
     , DENSE_RANK() OVER ( ORDER BY your_id desc)
from your_table
order by 2, 3 desc;

How to only read the last line in the text file by using BufferedReader ?

Dear all,
Hello, I am new to Java. Do anybody know how to read the last line (this is the last record) in the text file.The method I am now using is reading from the first line until I reach the last line in the text file. Thank you!!
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("c:\\sdk1.4.1\\bin\\dbExport.txt"));
DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(new FileInputStream("c:\\sdk1.4.1\\bin\\dbExport.txt"));
String input;
String firstinput;
String secondinput;
int count=90;
int year=1955;
while ((input = br.readLine()) != null) {
firstinput = input.substring(0, 10);
secondinput = input.substring(10);
String insertStore1 = ("INSERT INTO AUTHORS " +
"VALUES ('" + count + "', '" + firstinput + "', '" + secondinput + "', 1955)");
System.out.println(insertStore1);
int result = stmt.executeUpdate(insertStore1);

I suppose you could use a java.io.RandomAccessFile.
