Answer / devi

Get data to internal table from database table using select query.
Sort the second internal table by ascending order.
Then use Delete adjacent duplicates comparing highest marks.
It will remove duplicate highest marks.
Then sort the internal table by descending order.
Read internal table into workarea index 2.
It will give the second highest mark.

Some times we have to process more steps using all data's. At that time we have to create two internal table with same structure . Move the data from firs table to second table and do the above steps.
