doubt

[Former Member]

I want to delete all occurances (not just the adjacent duplicates) from an internal table where certain fields are duplicated. I tried 'DELETE duplicate entries FROM it_name' but got an error saying 'Between Delete and Duplicate, Adjacent is missing'.

Make sure the "certain fields" are at the beginning of the record and that none of them occur after a numeric (curr etc) field. Sort the table. Use "DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM itab COMPARING f1 f2...".

Did you do an ABAP help on DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES? Have a read - especially of the notes after Addition 2.

The syntax is

Delete adjacent duplicated from itab comparing field1.

Press F1 on Delete command( or any other command) so as to know about it

gi,

do this way

DELETE adjacent duplicates  FROM it_name comparing <fields>.
