Hello! Is anyone able to help me with this? I want to filter out table control rows like eg. select * from itab into corresponding fields of table zstaff where position like %lect%. Displaying the results of position being lecturer, senior lecturer, etc.. And yes, the lect will definitely be replaced by a variable..

Hi,

  1. put your variable in range with OPTION = 'CP' and use it:
    where POSITION IN range (also for internal table)
  2. DATA lv_pos type zstaff-position.
    lv_pos = '%' && lv_position && '%'.
    SELECT * FROM... WHERE position like lv_pos.
    Take care: possible SQL injection!

Good luck,

Dennis
