Hi All,

Pleae can anybody expalins me what is the difference between sy-tabix and sy-index(Loop Index) ?

Because in one case i am Modifyimg the internal table inside the do loop by giving sy-index ((Index of Internal Tables)(MODIFY scarr_tab INDEX sy-index FROM scarr_wa TRANSPORTING currcode. ) in the syntax and in other case inside loop statement i am modifyng same record by giving sy-tabix MODIFY scarr_tab INDEX sy-tabix FROM scarr_wa TRANSPORTING currcode.) in the syntax.In both cases its working fine but i am not getting which one i have to use where to modify the internal table?

regards

Satya

HI,

Finally i got the result that sy-index will come into picture in DO AND WHILE LOOP

and sy-tabix comes into picture in all other case where we need to know the index of internal table.

Thanks

Index is loop Index and Tabix is Index of Internal table.

Hi Satya,

<b>Sy-tabix</b> is nothing but Table index , This should be used between LOOP and ENDLOOP as a record counter in an Internal tables. where <b>sy-index</b> it is also used as a counter and is used between DO and ENDDO for identifying the number of times these statments were performed .
