ABAP Dialog programming

Hi All,
Can any body tell me, "How to enter data into Database table using the screen element table control"
Reply me to [email protected]
Regards,
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
U have to declare the table control as a internal table in your SE38 coding .. and you have to loop through the table control to read the values in the table control ,and then append the content into the transparent table.
By this way you can save records into Database from table control. Its almost like a visual internal table .

Differences between ABAP Programming and Dialog Programming

Can any one explain me the Differences between ABAP Programming and Dialog Programming

Hi,
ABAP PROGRAMING:
An ABAP program consists of individual ABAP statements. Each statement begins with a keyword and ends with a period.
PROGRAM FIRST_PROGRAM.
WRITE 'My First Program'.
This example contains two statements, one on each line. The keywords are PROGRAM and WRITE. The program displays a list on the screen. In this case, the list consists of the line "My First Program".
The keyword determines the category of the statement. For an overview of the different categories, refer to ABAP Statements.
You can execute different parts of programs conditionally or in loops using the standard keywords IF, CASE, DO, and WHILE.
When controlling the flow of an ABAP program, remember that the structure of the program is made up of processing blocks that cannot be nested. This section describes how to control the flow of a program within a processing block. The keywords covered here do not allow you to branch outside the processing block in which you use them. You can regard this as internal control of an ABAP program, as opposed to the external control provided by events in the ABAP runtime environment.
To control the internal flow of a processing block, you can use control structures to divide it up into smaller statement blocks according to the principles of structured programming.
DIALOG PROGRAMING:
This is a classical programming method that is based on dynpros and dialog transactions.
Classic Application Programming
Separating the application layer from the presentation layer means that when you run an ABAP application program requiring user interaction, control of the program is continually passed backwards and forwards between these layers. While a screen is ready for input, the corresponding SAP GUI of the presentation layer is active. During this time, the application layer is not active for the application program. Therefore, the ABAP application servers are free for other tasks. Once the user has entered data on the screen, program control passes back to the application layer. Now, the presentation layer is inactive. The SAP GUI is still visible to the user during this time, and it is still displaying the screen, but it cannot accept user input. The SAP GUI does not become active again until the application program has called a new screen and sent it to the presentation server.
Consequently, if you use this method, you need to divide dialog programs into single dialog steps, with each of these steps comprising the programming logic between two successive screens.
REGARDS,
VASAVI.

What is difference between report programming and dialog programming?

hi,
what is difference between report programming and dialog programming? plz provide some example code
bye

ABAP programming
Basically reports are used to read database and represent the results in lists.
Reports are collections of processing blocks that the system calls depending on events.
We can use reports to evaluate data from database tables.
Reports are stand alone programs and controlled by events.
A report itself never creates events
steps in report:
Processing the selection screen
Reading the database
Evaluating the data and creating lists
Outputting a list.
1st u write simple logics, after that u can enhance the code as step by step.

Dialog Programming
Structure of a Dialog Program
A dialog program consists of the following basic components:
Screens (dynpros)
Each dialog in an SAP system is controlled by dynpros. A dynpro (DYnamic PROgram) consists of a screen and its flow logic and controls exactly one dialog step. The flow logic determines which processing takes place before displaying the screen (PBO-Process Before Output) and after receiving the entries the user made on the screen (PAI-Process After Input).
The screen layout fixed in the Screen Painter determines the positions of input/output fields, text fields, and graphical elements such as radio buttons and checkboxes. In addition, the Menu Painter allows to store menus, icons, pushbuttons, and function keys in one or more GUI statuses. Dynpros and GUI statuses refer to the ABAP/4 program that control the sequence of the dynpros and GUI statuses at runtime.
ABAP/4 module pool
Each dynpro refers to exactly one ABAP/4 dialog program. Such a dialog program is also called a module pool, since it consists of interactive modules. The flow logic of a dynpro contains calls of modules from the corresponding module pool. Interactive modules called at the PBO event are used to prepare the screen template in accordance to the context, for example by setting field contents or by suppressing fields from the display that are not needed. Interactive modules called at the PAI event are used to check the user input and to trigger appropriate dialog steps, such as the update task.
All dynpros to be called from within one transaction refer to a common module pool. The dynpros of a module pool are numbered. By default, the system stores for each dynpro the dynpro to be displayed next. This dynpro sequence or chain can be linear as well as cyclic. From within a dynpro chain, you can even call another dynpro chain and, after processing it, return to the original chain.

Hi ,
I have understood the problem.
In your ABAP code replace all the occurrrences of wa_data with the structurename.
Use the TABLES keyword to declare the structure .That structure will be same as
reference table of the table control .
Here the structure is SPFLI.
Check the bellow code , it will resolve the issue.
ABAP code - -
program zsdn.
tables spfli. " Declare the structure
data : it_data like table of spfli with header line,
*wa_data TYPE spfli, " commented
w_i type i.
*CONTROLS TC_CONTROL TYPE TABLEVIEW USING SCREEN 100.
controls: tc_control type tableview using screen 1000,
tc_control1 type tableview using screen 1000.
data: g_tc_controls_lines like sy-loopc,
g_tc_controls_lines1 like sy-loopc.
module tc_control output.
describe table it_data lines tc_control-lines.
endmodule. " TC_CONTROL OUTPUT
module tc_control_get_lines output.
g_tc_controls_lines = sy-loopc.
move-corresponding it_data to spfli.
endmodule. " tc_control_get_lines OUTPUT

How to call a dialog program with return value in another dialog program

Dear All,
How can I call a dialog program with return value from another dialog program?
Regards,
Alok.

Hi Alok,
You can you SET/GET parameters to do this.
This is some information about this.
To fill the input fields of a called transaction with data from the calling program, you can use the SPA/GPA technique. SPA/GPA parameters are values that the system stores in the global, user-specific SAP memory. SAP memory allows you to pass values between programs. A user can access the values stored in the SAP memory during one terminal session for all parallel sessions. Each SPA/GPA parameter is identified by a 20-character code. You can maintain them in the Repository Browser in the ABAP Workbench. The values in SPA/GPA parameters are user-specific.
ABAP programs can access the parameters using the SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETERstatements.
To fill one, use:
SET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f.
This statement saves the contents of field f under the ID pid in the SAP memory. The ID pid can be up to 20 characters long. If there was already a value stored under pid, this statement overwrites it. If you double-click pid in the ABAP Editor, parameters that do not exist can be created as a Repository object.
To read an SPA/GPA parameter, use:
GET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f.
This statement places the value stored under the pid ID into the variable f. If the system does not find any value for pid in the SAP memory, sy-subrc is set to 4. Otherwise, it sets the value to 0.

SriRatna

Dynamic header text in table control - Dialog programming

Hi All,
I have a table control on one of my dialog screens. I need to dynamically change the column header texts on this control in my PBO. Does anyone know how to do this? I have found all kinds of ways to modify the other characteristics of the fields at run time in the PBO (active, input/output, invisible, etc.) - but not to change the header text! Any help is appreciated.
thanks,
Matt

Hi Hymavathi,
I appreciate your help! This didn't solve the issue, however,...I have used the method you'd mentioned before (many times) for setting it inside the loop at screen:
%_<screenname>_%_APP_%-TEXT = <text something>.
- but only in ABAP reports. It doesn't seem to recogize it (the table control column header text) within a dialog program. I keep getting a compile error. (saying that the %_<screenname>_%_APP_%-TEXT doesn't exist.
I tried the suggestion that you stated below (from lateesh) - yet it only let me place i/o field in title text area (not the column header text). Am still searching...

Problem with spool request generation in Dialog program

Hi,
 To give the spool and print functionality in dialog program i have used the function module code like below -
call function 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
 exporting
 mode = ' '
 in_parameters = ls_pri_params
 importing
 out_parameters = ls_pri_params
 valid = lv_valid
 exceptions
 archive_info_not_found = 1
 invalid_print_params = 2
 invalid_archive_params = 3
 others = 4.
 IF lv_valid <> space AND sy-subrc = 0.
 SUBMIT (sy-repid)
 USER SY-UNAME TO SAP-SPOOL
 SPOOL PARAMETERS ls_pri_params
 WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO.
But the problem is, if it is list then we can easily get the print function, since i am using the above code in the dialog program screen 9000, program is giving dump like....
Incorrect program type with SUBMIT.
What happened?
The current ABAP/4 program "SAPMYXXXXXX" had to be terminated because
one of the statements could not be executed.
This is probably due to an error in the ABAP/4 program.
You attempted to start a program not intended for this purpose.
I know that i should not use submit statement for dialog program, but what is the solution for this.
Thanks in advance..

Did you check the F1 help of SUBMIT. if not give a try.Submit cannot be used on Module pool programs. it is used for Report(executable ) programs.

Help needed to write a dialog program

Hello ABAP Gurus,
I am very much new to ABAP Programming.
Can anybody help me to write a simple Dialog Program ??
I have a database table.
I have created a screen with screen painter, and kept some input fields & a push button in it.
I want to fill the database table with the data entered into the fields on the screen.
When the user enters the data and presses the PUSH BUTTON then that data record should be stored into the Database table.
So what kinda code I have to write in PAI (Process After Input), to achieve this functionality ??
The help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Ravi
Edited by: Ravi Kiran on Oct 28, 2009 2:17 PM

It's easy:
In PAI you have do an insert into a database table, following the steps:
1.on PAI create a module: for exemple Zwrite_table.
2. inside Zwrite_table code as follow:
move var1 to wa_table-var1.
move var2 to wa_table-var2.
move var3 to wa_table-var3. etc etc
insert table ztable from wa_table.
P.s. ztable is a database table.
wa_table is a structure that have the same structure of ztable.
var1 var2 var3 etc is a variable inside your dynpro.
regards,
Roberto.
