Select on VBAP giving a dump in preproduction system

Question

Hello Experts,
We are trying to fetch records from VBAP based on the primary key of VBELN. Even with the primary key, it gives dump in pre production system.
select vbeln posnr matnr arktx pstyv abgru zmeng meins netwr waerk
          kwmeng kbmeng vrkme werks vstel netpr kpein kmein mvgr5 cuobj
           z_vessel_code z_container_size z_container_type
           z_voyage_number z_hub_port z_serv_typ_orig z_serv_typ_dest
           z_ship_typ_orig z_ship_typ_dest z_passthrough z_shipmentterm
           z_oti z_equipment_type
      into table i_vbap
      from vbap
       for all entries in i_vbak
     where vbeln = i_vbak-vbeln.
<Added code tags>
If we try to add more parameters in the select query it again gives the dump as primary index or secondary index is not used completely.
Please suggest some way of optimizing this query.

Hi,
    How is your internal table declared? is it defined with workarea or not?
Before the select statement,
if not i_vbak is initial. " if the internal table is declared with OCCURS n statement the this statement will check for only workarea not the internal table.
The select statement must be executing in some LOOP and ENDLOOP., Just check the background job which you executed for any message "message i038." displayed in background job? with the use of statement LEAVE TO LIST-PROCESSING in START-OF-SELECTION, the program will execute the remaining code with out going to selection screen.
if i_vbak[] is initial.
    message i038.
    leave list-processing.
  endif.
" the below code must have executed with blank i_vbak.
  if not i_vbak is initial.  
>>>    select vbeln posnr matnr arktx pstyv abgru zmeng meins netwr waerk
          kwmeng kbmeng vrkme werks vstel netpr kpein kmein mvgr5 cuobj
           z_vessel_code z_container_size z_container_type
           z_voyage_number z_hub_port z_serv_typ_orig z_serv_typ_dest
           z_ship_typ_orig z_ship_typ_dest z_passthrough z_shipmentterm
           z_oti z_equipment_type
      into table i_vbap
      from vbap
       for all entries in i_vbak
     where vbeln = i_vbak-vbeln.
