Problem in passing table properties.

[ankur_sharma16]

Hello experts,

I want to create a new table i.e. i have an old table ZDBTAB1 and i want to rename it to ZDBTAB2 and am doing so by passing all the properties of old table ZDBTAB1 to the new table ZDBTAB2.

Using fm 'DD_TABL_GET', am getting the technical properties and fields of ZDBTAB1.

Using fm 'DD_TABL_PUT', am creating the new table with the same technical properties and fields as of ZDBTAB1.

Now my problem is that after it the technical properties which is being passed to the new table ZDBTAB2 is not being reflected there. That is if you go to SE11 and see the tech prop of ZDBTAB2, it is not there. So due to this (may be) if i use 'WHERE USED FUCNTIONALITY' on ZDBTAB2 then it will not be able to search.

Please suggest.

Regards,

Ankur Sharma.

HI ,

can you see that table ZDBTAB2 is active or not.

It is Active, it contains the old table's fields but enhancement category and technical properties are not present in new table.

[yogendra_bhaskar]

hi ankur ,

Then check for the enhancement category and technical properties ZDBTAB1 .

or you may be missing some parameter .

or for the best if you want to create a copy of your old table , better use FM RS_DD_COPY .

CALL FUNCTION 'RS_DD_COPY'
         EXPORTING
           objname1 = <Source>
           objname2 = <Target>
           objtype  = <type of Object>.

For <type of Object > select any one :

A    Table Type

D    Domain

E    Data Element

F    Table Field

G    Type Group

H    Search Help

I    Matchcode ID

L    Lock Object

M    Matchcode Object

N    Table Index

S    Internal Structure

T    Transparent Table

U    Table/Structure

V    View

X    Table Pool

Y    Table Cluster

Z    Table cluster/pool

But this FM will show pop ups, which i dont want, i want it to be done without any screen or pop-ups.

And this will ask for package and rest everything while copying.

Hi Ankur,

You need to change the table name in ls_dd02v and ls_dd09l.

Check in debug mode.

Thanks,
