internal table

What i was afraid of.. your structure only has 1 column. Hence, your result equals 1.

edit:

Apparently, you have a '|' separated string in there.

Read a line from your internal table into a workarea.

Use SPLIT workarea TABLE lt_temp AT '|'

And then count the number of lines in lt_temp.

I assume all lines in your intenal table have the same structure, e.g. the same number of separated values.
