What does it do? This statement reads the source code of the program specified in prog from the repository and copies its lines into the internal table itab. The previous content of itab is deleted.

The name is not case-sensitive. The internal table itab must be a standard table without secondary table keys with a character-like line type. When the line length of the internal table is fixed, it must be long enough for the longest program line. Program lines that are too long raise a catchable exception.
