ABAP code example for Function Module TABSTRIP_GROUP_BOX_SET

The code uses the latest in-line data DECLARATION SYNTAX but I have included an ABAP code snippet at the end to show how declarations would look using the original method of declaring data variables up front. This will allow you to compare and fully understand the new inline method. Please note some of the newer syntax such as the @DATA is not available until a later 4.70 service pack (SP8).

ld_e_first_tab_reached    TYPE STRING
,
ld_e_last_tab_reached    TYPE STRING

SELECT single GBOX 
  FROM TAMLAYB

ABAP code to compare 7.40 inline data declaration with original syntax

The below ABAP code uses the older none in-line data declarations. This allows you to see the coding differences/benefits of the later inline syntax. It may also be useful if you are using an older version of SAP as some of the newer syntax above, such as the @DATA is not available until 4.70 EHP 8.

DATA:


ld_e_first_tab_reached  TYPE STRING ,
ld_i_gbox  TYPE TAMLAYB-GBOX ,
ld_e_last_tab_reached  TYPE STRING .





SELECT single GBOX 
  FROM TAMLAYB 
  INTO ld_i_gbox.
