Syntax Error in SELECT statement

Question

Hi,
My ABAP statement is:
select b1~fa a1~fb
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE it_1
from (table_nm) as a1 inner join db_tab2 as b1
on a1~fb = b1~fb.
For this statement it gives me following error in syntax check:
*Wrong expression "INNER" in FROM clause. WHERE condition.     *     
Thanks,
CD

Hi
Try something like this:
DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
        A,
        B,
      END   OF ITAB.
DATA: TABLENAME(30).
DATA: WA_FTAB(72) TYPE C,
      FTAB        LIKE TABLE OF WA_FTAB.
WA_FTAB = 'A'.   APPEND WA_FTAB TO FTAB.
SELECT (FTAB) FROM (TABLENAME) INTO TABLE ITAB.
LOOP AT ITAB.
  SELECT SINGLE A FRO <TABLE 2>
    INTO ITAB-B
    WHERE A = ITAB-A.
  MODIFY ITAB.
ENDLOOP.
See this sample:
DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
        VBELN LIKE VBAK-VBELN,
        POSNR LIKE VBAP-POSNR,
        VKORG LIKE VBAK-VKORG,
      END   OF ITAB.
DATA: TABLENAME(30) VALUE 'VBAP'.
DATA: WA_FTAB(72) TYPE C,
      FTAB        LIKE TABLE OF WA_FTAB.
WA_FTAB = 'VBELN'.   APPEND WA_FTAB TO FTAB.
WA_FTAB = 'POSNR'.   APPEND WA_FTAB TO FTAB.
SELECT (FTAB) UP TO 10 ROWS FROM (TABLENAME) INTO TABLE ITAB.
LOOP AT ITAB.
  SELECT SINGLE VKORG FROM VBAK INTO ITAB-VKORG
    WHERE VBELN = ITAB-VBELN.
  MODIFY ITAB.
ENDLOOP.
