Re: select not working

Hold on. How can this be the case?

Data: lt_MAT type STANDARD TABLE OF ZMAT.

select * into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE lt_mat

   from zmat.

it_MAT is now an internal table with exactly the same field as ZMAT. Therefore there is no reason for this not to work. If

SELECT *

     FROM ZMAT

     INTO TABLE IT_MAT.

does work and the other doesn't then we've not been given the full code.
