Answer 1

I made these changes:
DATA gr_ccontainer TYPE REF TO cl_gui_dialogbox_container .
so i changed the reference of the container to cl_gui_dialogbox_container, and...
    CREATE OBJECT GR_CCONTAINER
      EXPORTING
        width                       = 1000
       height                      = 250
        top                         = 50
        left                        = 50
        caption                     = 'TEST'
      EXCEPTIONS
        cntl_error                  = 1
        cntl_system_error           = 2
        create_error                = 3
        lifetime_error              = 4
        lifetime_dynpro_dynpro_link = 5.
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
     MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
                WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
    ENDIF.
Changed this method. Now it says that the fieldcatalog is empty.
I just want it to auto create the container. Is it a possibility?
