Hi Vipin,

Check this ex:

ITAB1 is having fields "A","B", "C".

ITAB2 is having fields "A","D", "E".

Create i_final internal table to have all fields of 2 internal tables.

i_final is having "A","B","C","D","E".

SORT itab1 ,itab2 by A

LOOP AT ITAB1.

READ TABLE itab2 WITH KEY a = itab1-a BINARY

SEARCH.

IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.

MOVE : itab1-a TO i_final-a,

itab1-b TO i_final-b,

itab1-c TO i_final-c,

itab2-d TO i_final-d,

itab2-e TO i_final-e.

APPEND i_final.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.
