I recently deleted a custom program (which is already transported to production) accidentally and was wondering if there is any method of retrieving the program back. After some research, I found a way of getting back the program. Following are the steps in getting back the program:
1) Create a program with the same name as earlier (which
is deleted)
2) Click on "Utilities" --> "Versions" --> "Version Management"
3) Select the version of your earlier program and click
on display.
4) Your earlier program is displayed here.

The system will list out all the tables which contain your desired field name.
or
1) using transaction Code SE11 (ABAP Dictionary)
2) enter the Data table name where-in the respective
field (EKGRP) is used e.g.; EKKO
3) Click the where -used list button
4) Check out the box (DB tables) Only .
There you can see entire list of tables containing the desired field.
Here the difficulty is that one should know at least the name of the one of the data tables which contain the desired field.

When you delete an entry from an internal table in ABAP, the system has to re-generate the index for all entries after your delete, slowing the report if you have many records to eliminate.
It is much quicker to do an insert of the correct records into a second table than to delete entries from the first. The reason for this is because the index is only generated for the newest element.
