ALV output when transporting to spread sheet

Hi all ,
I am finding problem when I am transporting my ALV grid output to spread sheet. Irrespective of order all integer fields are moving to right most of the spread sheet.
Actually i need to export that as it is in the output. Hope this is a common problem. If any one faced this previously or know solution for this please let me know.
regards
raghav

Raghav,
You will need to create some custom functionality for your needs.
I would suggest passing your internal table in this Func Module - MS_EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT.
You can also pass a listing of field headers will be placed above each column in the Excel output as well (if needed).
Example:
TYPES: BEGIN OF t_output,
          text80(80),
          kgoal(20),
          ytd(20),
          p1(20),
          p2(20),
          p3(20),
          p4(20),
          p5(20),
          p6(20),
          p7(20),
          p8(20),
          p9(20),
          p10(20),
          p11(20),
          p12(20),
          rowcolor(4),
        END OF t_output.
DATA: single_output_tbl TYPE TABLE OF t_output WITH HEADER LINE.

Short dump when exporting the ALV grid report in to spread sheet

HI,
I am facing a problem when downloading ALV grid report in to spread sheet LIST>EXPORT>LOCAL FILE -->SPREADSHEET.
in shotdump the cursor shows : "assign cline+cbegin(clength) to <field_cont>."
In SAP internal table LIST,in the first record the value of the filed LENG is 0. when i have changed this value ex:10 etc it is coming properly.
Kindly help me
Nagendra

Is this a standard SAP report, or your own? Can you tell what your report does, if it is a custom ALV report?

ALV Edit Mask isn't applied when exporting as "Spread Sheet".

Hi all,
One of our program has "Edit Mask" as XXXXX____ for displaying data in ALV (Mask first 5 numbers as X, display last 4 numbers as it is). However, when data is exported as "Spread Sheet", the edit mask is not applied. Does anyone know how to force edit mask when data is exported as SpreadSheet (MHTML)? If you export as "local File" and then do "SpreadSheet", the edit mask works.. it is just when the direct "SpreadSheet" done, it doesn't work.
(i.e. CL_GUI_ALV_GRID->EXPORT_TO_SPREAD_SHEET doesn't apply EDIT Masks set in Field Catalog.)
Here is more technical info. We are on ECC 6.
Field Catalog is of type LVC_T_FCAT.
for a specific field, "EDIT_MASK" is set to XXXXX____.
The ALV is called using
My_ALV_CLASS->SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY
exporting
is_layout = My_layout
is_toolbar_excluding = my_toolbar_exclude
changing
it_outtab = My_data_table
it_fieldcatalog = MY_FIELD_CATALOG_DEFINATION_WHERE_EDIT_MASK_IS_SET
exceptions...
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
This is first time I am giving an answer.
Instead of using a function module to merge the field catalog, try doing it one by one.
for example,
pt_fieldcat-col_pos = 01.
pt_fieldcat-fieldname = 'KUNNR'.
APPEND pt_fieldcat.
pt_fieldcat-col_pos = 02.
pt_fieldcat-fieldname = 'IP'.
pt_fieldcat-edit = 'X'.
pt_fieldcat-edit_mask = '-.-.-.-'.
APPEND pt_fieldcat.
and use the structure Z_IPADDR in method parameters instead of a function.
CALL METHOD go_grid_ip->set_table_for_first_display
EXPORTING
     i_structure_name = 'Z_IPADDR'
     it_toolbar_excluding = lt_exclude
     is_layout = ls_layout
CHANGING
     it_fieldcatalog = pt_fieldcat
     it_outtab = p_t_auth_ip.
CALL METHOD go_grid_ip->set_ready_for_input
EXPORTING
i_ready_for_input = 1.
and also you can use following function module to check if the edited value is still in ALV or not
CALL METHOD grid->check_changed_data
    IMPORTING
      e_valid = l_valid.
IF l_valid IS NOT INITIAL.
then the edited data in alv is successfully changed in internal table behind that.
Debugging may find you an answer.
Kind Regards,
Manisha

Truncation of Heading characters when an ALV is exported to an excel sheet

Hi All,
I am facing a problem while printing an ALV output on to an excel sheet. In the header the last characters are being truncated in the excel.
Now, I have the entire data in tb_output itab. So using REUSE_ALV*, i printed the output. Here comes the problem.
I heard about LIST_FROM_MEMORY and LIST_TO_ASCI which can solve this problem. But not much sure how to use those. Whether I need to pass my itab tb_output into any of these?
Please help me out from this problem.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Seenu

Hi!
You have 2 options:
1. Shorten your headings so that their length is LE to the fieldlength of the data they are displaying. E.g. for PO number maximum possible is 10.
2. Try using the parameter OUTPUTLEN in the field catalog. You can increase this to be equal to the length of your column heading.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!

Excel Addin stops working when an other excel spread sheet is open

Hi,
I'm sure many would have faced this issue of,excel addin retreive either gets no results or gives an error message when an other spread sheet is active.
Is there a work around or any option set up to get over this isssue. The version of essbase 11.1.2.1
Thanks
SC

it happens when you open many excels ..and which u cant see in ur own desktop ..where when u go to task manager u can see excel process running at back end by killing those u can overcome the issue
more over some time .xla gets corrupted or disabled which can be solved by going to excel help >about excel u can find disabled .xla files which u can refresh ...
l..
And some time u can see u try to retrive data in one sheet where data will be retrieved in another sheet ...like this there are many where the list is endless .. so mostly restarting excel will do ..Hope this gives u some workaround :)

      i_save           = 'A'

      it_fieldcatalog = gt_fieldcat[].
DO anyone have the answer

Hi,
Refersh
call the method gv_grid->refresh_table_display

Hi Satish,
I am also facing this problem in one of my programs. Though I solved this problem temporarily by adding a new button to the Screen and have downloaded the file using GUI_DOWNLOAD function module, I would really like to know the reason for this and also the solution for this if you have known it by now.

Resetting the export to excel sheet on ALV output

Hi !
One of the user ran an ALV report and then tried to expot the report output to spread sheet . When she clicked on the export tab it poped her a screen to enter the format in which she wanted to export it and then checked the checkbox * Always use the selected format. Now whenever she clicks the export button on the ALV output it directly directs her to the spread sheet with the export. We would like to reset that so that she can choose back the desired format from the list of options. I would like to know where do we have to go or which table its gets stored so that we can re-set it back to original?
Help would be really appreciated.
Thanks

Problem in downloading the alv on spread sheet..... ??

Hi Expert gurus..

what can be the problem ..................
Please help........
I will reward points for all the question....

Hi,
How are you downloading in background.
You need to read the spool output into an internal table RSPO_DOWNLOAD_SPOOLJOB or RSPO_RETURN_ABAP_SPOOLJOB and use GUI_DOWNLOAD to download the data.

VENUM field which is in internal table but not displaying the output. is this any problem?
Suppose if i take DATA: gv_boxnam TYPE slis_fieldname value 'VBELN'. which is in internal table and displaying the output..in this case i m not getting the VBELN in the output..i am getting only 18 fields in the output.

ALV truncation while download using List--Save/send--File--Spread sheet

Experts,
In ALV output, I am trying to download using menu item
"List --> Save/send --> File --> Spread sheet" then in the popup appears
here if i GIVE the FILE NAME THEN,material number is getting truncated.
If I don't give any file name it is storing as ".xls" and not getting truncated.
How to correct this or avoid this truncation.
OR
If we can't do correction about truncation ...my function consultant is asking to
to disable "List --> Save/send --> File".
Thanks in advance.
Sam

Solved by my own....
We need to pass
i_fieldcat-no_zero = 'X'.
so that the zeros at the end won't get truncated.

Export ALV Grid Header to spread sheet

Hi,
   I created ALV report using OO ABAP where i splitted the container into 3 parts , one for header , one for Grid and the other for Footer. When i export it to a spred sheet , i could not able to get the header and footer into the Spread sheet. I want the header and the footer to be exported to the spred sheet. Can any one of you help me out in this.
Thanks,
Kishore.

Use the events PRINT_TOP_OF_PAGE and PRINT_END_OF_PAGE for printing the Header and Footer.
Sample routine for the method PRINT_TOP_OF_PAGE is given below:
METHOD M_HANDLE_TOP_OF_PAGE.
