Assignment of Refrence to a FieldSymbol

[Former Member]

Hi Folks

I need to retrieve the field's value in one table which is as value in another table.

Table x has field a with value b.

Table y has field with b and I need to update b with the help of table x.

using dynamic field symbols would help?

Hi,

Do like this.

<u>PSEUDO CODE</u>

read table t_x with key field1 = 'X' .

loop at y assigning <l_y>.

if <l_y>-field = 'X' .

<l_oem>-field = x-field.

endif.

endloop.

Hi,

Yes you can do using the field symbols.

loop at x.

loop at y into wa_y.

assign (x-a) of structure wa_y to <fs_any>.

<fs_any> = 'XXX'

This statement will update field b in y.

endloop.

endloop.

You can either user loop at y or a READ statement.

• Defining a Field Symbol

FIELD-SYMBOLS <FS>.

• Variable for later use

DATA FIELD VALUE 'X'.

• Assigning a field to a Field Symbol

ASSIGN FIELD TO <FS>.

• Using a Field Symbol which has an assigned field

WRITE <FS>.

• Table work area for later use

TABLES CUSTOMERS.

• Defining a Field Symbol

FIELD-SYMBOLS <OUTPUT>.

• Displaying all fields of all table entries

SELECT * FROM CUSTOMERS.

NEW-LINE.

DO.

ASSIGN COMPONENT SY-INDEX OF STRUCTURE CUSTOMERS TO <OUTPUT>.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

EXIT.

ENDIF.

WRITE <OUTPUT>.

ENDDO.

ENDSELECT.

Hi Vinod

Thanks for your solution, but here my case is, I am need to retrive few values from a table, according that one

I need to take a table field into a variable, now the variable contains the table field name.

Now I need to assing the variable value, it means the table field value into that one.

Below I am giving the example to you.

Select * from vbak.

var = vbak-vbeln.

<FS1>- Field symbol

Now the contains vbak-vbeln. Actually here I need to assing the value of vbak-vbeln to Field Symbol.

vbak-vbeln = '100000', now I need to see the value of field symbol as '100000' not vbak-vbeln which contains the var, after assiging the var to field symbol.

Please can you help me out.

[suresh_datti]

for that you have to use

assign (vbak-vbeln)to <fs>.
