read table i_regis2 with key cid eq s_validate-cid error

[Former Member]

hi everyone:

im new to abap development and i am currently in the process of validating the fields  on one table comparing them to another table.

right now this is the loop im using but i keep geting the same error when i try to assiociate a key field.

loop at i_index into s_validate.

     read table i_regist2 with key cid eq s_validate-cid      <------ "eq s_validate-cid" is not expected (Error message)

     transporting no fields.

if sy_subrc eq 0.

...

...

...

please clarify why this is happening and what is needed to correct this error.

thanks in advance

Hi,

Try using a work area in your read instruction as follow: INTO wa [transport_options]

Hello Irving,

You cannot use EQ in the READ statement. You have to use = in the read statement.
