field description vs. DD03T

[csaba_szommer]

Dear All,

DD03L contains table-field data, DD03T - as I know - is for field description. If I use SE16 + DD03T and give table MARC as selection parameter, SAP tells me:

No table entries found for specified key
Message no. MO429

In which tabel I can find the name of the fields? How can I extract those pieces of information via a query? (I cannot write ABAP code).

Please help...

Thanks,

Csaba

i think you have to give makt instead of marc

HI,

The Function Module DDIF_FIELDINFO_GET

retrieves all the field along with descritpion.

You can chk it out this FM.

you can also try table DD03M

in fact the problem is here, that there is a data element behind each table-field, and the data element has the text (not the table-field). The data elements are stored in table DD04L, the texts of the elements in DD04T.

DD03L-ROLLNAME will be the data element behind the table-field, you have to check that one in DD04L and DD04T tables

I think DD03T only contains descriptions for table fields that do not reference a data element.

that was me of course, sorry, but the statement you provided was missing from my reply, so your post still holds valuable information

Dear All,

Thaks for your answers!

Vivek,

I wouldn't like to use ABAP code but I assume what you wrote is correct.

Tharani,

I don't know how to use function modules...my poor knowledge...

Ok, in the meanwhile my colleague told me, it is an ABAP program (that cannot be run in itself) and I can refere to (and use) in my ABAP programs...

Thanks,

Csaba

Hello

Try table DDFTX

[Former Member]

There should be better way to handle this, but if joining DD03L & DD03T doesn,t resolve issue

You can loop at structure in your program.

sflighttype ?= cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_name('SFLIGHT').

comp_tab = sflighttype->get_components( ).

LOOP AT comp_tab ASSIGNING <wa_comp>.

CASE <wa_comp>-name.

WHEN 'CARRID' OR 'CONNID' OR 'FLDATE' OR 'PRICE' OR 'CURRENCY'.

APPEND <wa_comp> TO new_comp_tab.

ENDCASE.

ENDLOOP.

I have copied this code for referance from following link.
