ALV grid - how to break a long string into several lines?

I have a ALV grid, where one of the fields contains a textstring that is typically 100 characters long.
Is it possible to break this long string into shorter strings on multiple rows?
Kind of like in Excel, when using row break...

Thats not possible in ALV

How to break up a String into multiple array Strings?

How do I break up a string into a bunch of String arrays after the line ends.
For example,
JTextArea area = new JTextArea();
this is a string that i have entered in the area declared above
now here is another sting that is in the same string/text area
this is all being placed in one text field
Sting input = area.getText();
now how do I break that up into an array of strings after each line ends?

Ok I tested it out and it works.
So for future refrence to those that come by the same problem I had:
To split up a string when using a textfield or textarea so that you can store seperate sections of the string based on sperate lines, using the following code:
String text = area.getText() ;
String[] lines = text.split("\n") ;
This will store the following
this is all one
entered string
into two arrays

Issue with splitting string into multiple lines

Hi Experts,
I have a long string s. I want to split this string into several lines each having 72 characters. For this I have done following programming:
     String s = "For the first time it includes a supplementary report attempting to determine if extreme weather
events can be linked to human-induced climate change. The research team, including members
of the UK Met Office, identified recent episodes of extreme weather then used a computer to
estimate the likelihood of the episode happening in a world without increased CO2." ;
     s = s.replaceAll("[\r\n]+", " ");
     char[] sAr = s.toCharArray();
     AbstractList RecepitsList7 = new Bapitrtext.Bapitrtext_List();;
     int start = 0; // start with
     int i = 72 ;
//     for (int i = 71; i < sAr.length; i++) {
while (i < sAr.length) {
//     {     if (sAr[i] == ' ')
               Bapitrtext Recepits7 = new Bapitrtext();
               Recepits7.setTextid("TEXT");
               Recepits7.setTextline(s.substring(start, i).replaceAll("[\r\n]+", ""));
               RecepitsList7.add(Recepits7);
               start = i+1;
               i += 72;
     input.setText(RecepitsList7);
The output of program is as below:
For the first time it includes a supplementary report attempting to dete
mine if extreme weather events can be linked to human-induced climate
hange. The research team, including members of the UK Met Office, iden
ified recent episodes of extreme weather then used a computer to estim
te the likelihood of the episode happening in a world without increased
Here as we can see last characters are getting deleted by program. For example in first line
determine 'r' is missing in extreme right.
In 3rd line c is missing in extreme left (word change is needed. Program
prints hange.
Also in 3rd line extreme right 't' is missing
Also in 4th line extreme right 'a' is missing
Also the last line is not being printed. In last line "CO2." " should appear.
There are two issues:
1. Why last word of each sentence is not being printed?
2. Why last sentence is not being printed?
I am struggling since last 2 days. Please help. I made all changes like replacing 72 by 71 etc.
By making such changes, I am able to print first line correctly. However under all cases
last character of 2nd line onward is not getting displayed.
Also last line is not getting displayed. I did every thing like using while instead of for loop etc.
Kindly help.
Regards,
Gary

How to insert a very long string into a column of datatype 'LONG'

Can anyone please tell me how can I insert a very long string into a column of datatype 'LONG'?
I get the error, ORA-01704: string literal too long when I try to insert the value into the table.
Since it is an old database, I cannot change the datatype of the column. And I see that the this column already contains strings which are very long.
I know this can be done using bind variables but dont know how to use it in a simple query.
Also is there any other way to do it?

How to auto divide a one-line string into several rows in jsf?

<h:outputText value="#{msgs.aim}" styleClass="content_text_darkblue"></h:outputText>
for example, the #{msgs.aim} will be a long string that one line cannot output. how can i make it auto-break according to the row length instead of show a horizontal scrollbar?
in raw html code, i know i can include the content inside a <p> tag. but in jsf, i found it impossible to do in this way, although i tried to use <f:verbatim> tag
can any1 give me some idea about this?

Hello,
Why not <h:inputTextarea> ? It makes this automatically for you and you can user readonly="true" to render it as a fictive outputTextarea...
See example:
<h:inputTextarea value="#MyBean.description}" rendered="true" required="false" rows="20" cols="80" id="description" readonly="true" />
Hope you agree.

Is there an easy way to convert a long string into an array?

I can convert a long string into a 1-d array by parsing and using build array, but I would like to know if there is a function to make this easier.
For example:
from/   aaaaaaaabbbbbbbbccccccccdddddddd         (string of ascii)
to/       an array that is 1-d with each element having eight characters
          aaaaaaaa
          bbbbbbbb
          cccccccc
          dddddddd
Thank you.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try something like this:
(If you can guarantee that the string length is an integer multiple of 8, you an drop the two triangular modes in the upper left. )

Keep options: Select the paragraph, then CtrlAltK (Mac: CmdOptK, I
think).
If you want the paragraphs in pairs, create two paragraph styles. Style
A has keep options set to start on a new page, and also, its Next Style
is style B.
Style B has no keep options, but it's Next Style is Style A.
Select all the text.
From the flyout menu of the paragraph styles palette, apply Style A
"then next style."
Now all paragraphs will be alternating -- style A, style B, style A, etc.
Now do what I wrote initially, and you'll have pairs of paragraph in
separate text frames.

How to break the PDF file into images?

How to break the PDF file into images? There should be settings in Photoshop CS 6 that imports PDF file and break it into images. I have a short instruction:
2.    Open the file in Photoshop.
3.    A new window should open to Import PDF. Click on images, not pages import pdf into Photoshop.doc
4.    Select all the files shown (shift + click), Click O.K. Four files should open on your screen.
Was anybody successful with that?

Whether this is available solely depends on the structure of the PDF and whether it actually contains whole images that can be extracted separately. Depending on whatgoing on in the PDF this may simply not be the case and the images have been tiled and split up in multiple "objects" whose appearance can only be retained by rasrerizing the whole page...

How do I turn a long page into several

Is there another way. This one puts to many pages in the site menu. On photo pages you can limit the # of photos per page and the programs makes additional pages that are numbered but don't appear on the site menu. Like when you are reading a long news article and it has multiple pages.

      vorgaenger    = 'X'
      v_stufen      = '50'
    TABLES
      vbfa_tab      = lt_vbfa
    EXCEPTIONS
      no_vbfa       = 1
      no_vbuk_found = 2
      OTHERS        = 3.
so now lt_vbfa already got data line by line....
line 1 : contract : 00010 : 1000000 : 19,000.00
line 2 : order     : 00010 : 2000000 : 10000.00
line 3 : delivery : 00010 : 3000000 : 10000.00
how i can pass the value into 1 line?
for example :
contract | line     | amount     | Order     | line     | amount    | delivery   | line     | amount     |
1000000 | 00010| 19,000.00 | 2000000 |00010 | 10000.00 | 3000000 | 00010 | 10000.00 |

Hi,
What is requirement for passing the data in a single line ? Do you finally need to append the same in the internal table and pass it in the module ?
You can create an internal table of type 1000 character and can loop the existing internal table. Then you can append the Work area in a single line and can finally append it to the table.
DATA : ITAB type standard table of char1000.
Loop at <existing table>.
concatenate table work area wa_char100 into Itab_char_1000.
endloop.
APPEND itab_char_1000 into itab.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

ALV Grid: how to save changes made in an editable Grid

Hi,
How to save changes made bu the user in any of the editable cells in a ALV Grid?
Regards,
deb.

Hi,
If you are using the FM look at the following example code...
data: LC_GLAY TYPE LVC_S_GLAY.
LC_GLAY-EDT_CLL_CB = 'X'.<<<<<------
gt_layout-zebra = 'X'.
gt_layout-detail_popup = 'X'.
gt_layout-colwidth_optimize = 'X'.
call function 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
EXPORTING
i_callback_program = i_repid
i_callback_user_command = 'USER_COMMAND1'
it_fieldcat = header
is_layout = gt_layout
i_callback_top_of_page = 'TOP-OF-PAGE1'
i_grid_title = text-h17
it_sort = gt_sort[]
i_default = 'X'
i_save = 'U'
is_variant = gt_variant
it_events = gt_events
I_GRID_SETTINGS = LC_GLAY<<<<<<------
TABLES
t_outtab = itab.
clear itab.
Form USER_COMMAND1
FORM USER_COMMAND1 USING u_ucomm LIKE sy-ucomm
us_selfield TYPE slis_selfield."#EC CALLED
case u_ucomm.
when '&DATA_SAVE'.<<<<<<<<----
This will come after the data was EDITTED and when SAVE was clicked by user in output scren.
Here now in the final internal table(ITAB) you can find the data changed in EDIT mode.
After this you can do manipulation what ever you want.
Thanks.
If this helps you reward with points.

Using GETGUI command --in ALV grid, how to extract multiple DATA

Using GETGUI command , I am able to get a single value form the ALV grid. Please explain me how I can read multiple data like rows and columns data from the ALV grid.
Please be detailed as I already tried selecting the whole block of ALV grid, but I could not help myself.
Regards
Srinivas.

Hi Srinivas,
You will have to use the concept of Regular expressions for this. We will have to loop through each row/coloumn to do what u desire.
The ID of an element on grid will be something like GRIDNAME-<ELEMENT NAME>[ROW NO] [COLUMN NO]
we need to parameterize the row and also the el;ementname changes for each column along with the column number. Please let me know if this much detail is enough. If not i can show u a real time ecatt code snippet on how to play around with grids.
Regards,
Justin
