Retriving the vaue given in select options in an internal table.

Question

Hi all,
I have a requirement of using & printing the multiple values of country given in Select -options by the user.
I have given the select -options statement as :
s_ctry           FOR v_country obligatory.         (for selection screen)
SO now i want to work on the values (input by user on screen) given either in the multiple selection tab(the arrow option that will come on screen) or in the range option(that too will come on screeen when i give the above statement)
I will be putting these screen values in a work area and then will append into an internal table like this:                wa_country-country = s_ctry-low.
                            APPEND wa_country TO it_country
How to retrive these values (values of s_ctry) so that i can work on them.

HI,
Go through this documentation ..
The basic form of the SELECT-OPTIONS statement is as follows:
SELECT-OPTIONS <seltab> FOR <f>.
It declares a selection criterion <seltab> that is linked to a field <f> that has already been declared locally in the program. The names of selection criteria are currently restricted to eight characters. Valid data types of <f> include all elementary ABAP types except data type F. You cannot use data type F, references and aggregate types. If you want to use the selection criterion to restrict database selections, it is a good idea to declare <f> with reference to a column of the corresponding database table. It then inherits all of the attributes of the data type already defined in the ABAP Dictionary. In particular, the field help (F1) and the possible entries help (F4) defined for these fields in the Dictionary are available to the user on the selection screen.
The selection table, which has the same name as the selection criterion, <seltab>, is usually filled by the user on the selection screen or by calling programs. You can also process the selection table like any other internal table in the program.
