[Former Member]

hi,

if i need to append one internal table to another what do i need to do?

i have made changes in internal table 1.

now i need to move this internal table 1 to internal table 2.??

please help me.

if both are of same structure then u can use

 append lines of itab1 to itab2. 

if not then you have to loop at one table and move-corresponding entries into another table.

loop at itab1 into wa_itab1.

move-corresponding wa_itab1 to wa_itab2.

modify table itab2 using wa_itab2.
clear: wa_itab1, wa_itab2.

endloop.

itab2[] = itab1[]. if the internal tables are of same type.

else you need to move manually all the fields to another inrenal table by looping at itab1.

Hi,

Check the code below:

Loop at itab1 into wa1.
append wa1 to itab2.
or move-corresponding wa1 to wa2.
append wa2 to itab2.
endloop.
or 
itab2[] = itab1[]. "If both structures are same.

Hi..

You can use statment APPEND LINES OF itab1 [FROM idx1] [TO idx2] TO itab2.

Hi,

This method of appending lines of one table to another is about 3 to 4 times faster than appending them line by line in a loop. After the APPEND statement, the system field SY-TABIX contains the index of the last line appended. When you append several lines to a sorted table, you must respect the unique key (if defined), and not violate the sort order. Otherwise, a runtime error will occur.
