Hi,

The dump message appears because you are trying to select a number of fields larger than the destination workarea. ie:

data: begin of wa,

matnr type matnr,

mtart type mtart,

end of wa.

...

select single matnr mtart matkl from mara

into wa where matnr = <some stuff>.

In the example you select 3 fields and try to save them in a work area with only two fields.

The sap notes is a knowledge database available for SAP customers. It's accesible from http://service.sap.com (id & password needed)
