Column Headings Display

Hi Experts,
I am developing a Classical Report. So, for displaying the Column Headings in the output list, Is there any other alternative apart from the mentioning of the Column headings with the WRITE statement?
ThanQ.

text elements..
go thru navigation.
or else
write: text-001. (double click on 001) and create
yah u can get multiple lines here.
ex.
write: text-001,
text-002.
in 001 mention 'document' and in 002 'number'.
it will display as
documnet
number
hope vertical line is not possible in this method

Column Headings display in Uppercase as default

Is there a way i can make a newly created workbook display all column headers in uppercase, by default. Currently the column heading are in lower case and i have to go and manually change all column headings into uppercase

Well, you cannot do anything at the workbook level, that I am aware of (where want all caps for one workbook, but not all caps for another workbook).
Let me do mention this. When you create a business area, you follow a load wizard to step you through the steps to create the business area. The last step (or one of the last steps - cannot quite remember the order) is where you name the business area and give it a description. Below the Description section is a section to control how you want object names to generate. There is a Capitalize option, with the default being to capitalize the first letter of every word. I think here you could say to capitalize every letter. Since the heading default for every item in a folder is the item name, by saying to capitalize every letter for business area objects, then you would end up with all caps for your workbook headings that use this business area. The downside is that this holds true for any workbook using the business area.
For business areas that already exist, you can manually change the property, in Discoverer Administrator, for every item in the business area, one at a time. There is a heading property for each item. You would just type in the heading that you want to be the default for that item. Yes, this would be extremely tedious, but that option is available for you.
Personally, I would leave the load wizard default as is and just change any headings that I want to change when I create a workbook. If someone really wants their headings all in caps, then I would do that for that workbook. For most people I think the default works fine. But if you are sure that you always want headings in caps, then make sure you pick the right option whenver you create a new business area.
Does this make sense? Good luck.

Clasical Report column headings display

Hi ABAPERS
iam working on clasical report. in that i have to display 16 field headings.
when executing the report, the column headers should be frozen at the top so that when the user is scrolling down, they can see what the column title is.
how can i over come this problem.

Hi,
you mean the column headings should be displayed even though
the user scrolls down the output.
For classical reports, according to me it is not possible.
We will be using the write statement to display the records,
so it is static for the report.
If you want the output what you are expecting then go for ALV's.

Venkatesh

Still not possible (4.0 EA3) to copy displayed column headings from ref cursor output.

Hi,
I've created an enhancement request to allow displayed column headings from ref_cursor output to be copied.
This is still not possible (4.0 EA3)
The ref cursor data can be copied, but not the headings..
See July 2012 discussion of problem in comments at
http://www.thatjeffsmith.com/archive/2011/12/sql-developer-tip-viewing-refcursor-output/

Hi,
I think you're out of luck... except if you're on 11g where you can use DBMS_SQL.TO_CURSOR_NUMBER to convert the REF CURSOR to a DBMS_SQL cursor, and then benefit from the DBMS_SQL package to get column details.

Display of Column Headings in Time Tracking System

Hi
In Time Tracking Application, instead of displaying the Day of the week like
MON, TUE , Wed, Thu, Fri , Sat, Sun
iS it Possible to display along with the date like below in the column headings based on the week
selected?
Mon TUE WED THU FRI SAT SUN
03 04 05 06 07 08 09
Can any one helo me on this regard.

Hi,
Please check if you are created the elements for the dynamic node and corresponding attributes are set.
if you want to display the corresponding column heading in the dynamic table you should use ResultSetMetaData, like retrieving of data from table using ResultSet.
ResultSetMetaData rsm =(ResultSetMetaData)st.executeQuery("select * from <Table_Name");
IWDTableColumn tabColumn1=(IWDTableColumn)view.createElement(IWDTableColumn.class,"Column1");
IWDCaption column1Cap=(IWDCaption)view.createElement(IWDCaption.class,"column1Cap");
nameCap.setText(rsm.getColumnName(1));
tabColumn1.setHeader((IWDCaption)column1Cap);
like this you can add columns to table and set column headings.

karthik

How to display the column headings in Script

Hi Experts,
I am getting the script output like as follows.
000001       aaaaaaa
000002       bbbbbbb
but I want to maintain the column headings for these like
Material      description
000001       aaaaaaa
000002       bbbbbbb
Please tell me how to maintain the headings for script ouput.
Thanks & Regards,
Nagaraju C.

In the main window,
/E    Item Header
HD Material,, Description
/E   Item Line
HD &ITAB-MATNR&,, &ITAB-MAKTX&
HD is the paragraph format for which you have to maintain the tabs, margins etc.,
Thanks,
Srinivas

3.1EA1: Column Headings don't display when using SQL*Plus formatting

The Col[umn] command doesn't show the column headings or the total lines in sqldev. This SQL command:
-- Size per datafile
col tablespace_name format a10 head 'Tablespace'
col file_name format a40 head DataFileName
col cursize form 999.99 head "CurrSize|GB"
col maxsize form 999.99 head "MaxSize|GB"
col Autoextensible form a4 head "Auto"
break on tablespace_name
compute sum label Total of cursize maxsize on tablespace_name
select tablespace_name,
file_name,
bytes/1024/1024/1024 cursize,
maxbytes/1024/1024/1024 maxsize,
autoextensible
from dba_data_files
where tablespace_name = 'TS_DP'
Looks like this in sqldev:

TS_DP /ddawno/oradata/data01/dp_data01.dbf 1.76 1.76 YES

But looks like this in SQLPlus:

Hi, thanks for the response.
No, I do not have "set heading off" somewhere. What I pasted into my original post is the entire script that I am running from the worksheet, and I am not using a startup script.
Odd that the column formatting works for you, yet the list of unsupported commands that you pointed me to says that col[umn] is not supported. Help column from within sqldev contradicts that documentation, showing that col[umn] is supported, but only for the "NEW_V[ALUE] syntax."
Wow, there's nothing like enabling the most obscure keyword just to be able to say that a function is supported. Oh, well, at least the scripts that I download from the web run now. In 3.0 they died with a hard error just because the col[umn] keyword was used.

Hi,
The heading are in the table pt_fcat - you don't seem to be passing that in form....
PERFORM setup_and_display_alv_ver2
USING
it_out_alvp "Parameter structure
it_output[] "Internal Data table(header table)

which I guessing in in one of the includes?
Saying that the extract pof code does not show where you are calling form it_out_alv_fieldcat_before ...which populates the headings...

How to haveour own titles/captions in selection screen & in column headings

we have SAP B1 2005 A, MS SQL 2005
though i am new to MSSQL/T-SQL programming, purely through lot of trials & errors i have learnt & managed to develop many reports/queries !
but, i am facing some problems : how to have our own captions/title for the options in selection screen & aso in reports/queries column headings.
e.g. :
for Customer Aging analysis, i would like to accept a set of 3 parameters (aging days) from the user. where the user may enter the values 30, 60 & 90 OR any other values.
i have the following codes for this purpose (considering my question's (over) size, only small portions of my program are given below)
declare @mdue1 int,
           @mdue2 int,
            @mdue3 int
set @mdue1 = [%1]
set @mdue2 = [%2]
set @mdue3 = [%3]
but, in the selection screen, the system displays "%1 Debit Amount   Greater than" as the caption & 0.00 as the default value. the same is the case for the other two parameters [%2] & [%3] also.
i tried defining the variable @mdue1 as smallint & also tinyint, but the result is the same.
how to have our own captions/title for the options in selection screen instead of the ones displayed by t-sql based on our SELECT statement.
how to have our own column headings, dynamically defined/coined using variables instead of hard coded columns headings (within quotes).
e.g. in the select statement, instead of defining a column as '<= 30 Days' = T0.due_1
i would like to get the number of days from the user, who may enter 30 or 40 or whatever.
i would like to display the value that the user entered in the column heading using a variable say @mcol1
declare @mcol1 varchar(10)
set @mcol1 = '<= 'convert(varchar(10), @mdue1)' Days'
SELECT T0.CardCode,@mcol1 = T0.due_1 from #CustAging T0
but, this ends up in error.
i have already searched the net for ebooks, articles, etc. for a solution to this problem, but till now, i could not find any addressing these problems.
i have just registered in this forum with a hope to get a solution. thanks a lot in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Raghu Iyer
Place : Vapi, Gujarat, India

thanks a lot, lstvan.
i think, it i a good "trick" worth trying out.
well, i will now mark this question as answered, but still, if anyone has a direct solution "problem", please do share with us.
i am able to write queries (in fact, full fledged programs) in T-SQL & getting the desired output and for such a trivial thing i do not want to go for an add-on SDK module. but, considering the limitations of T-SQL and the complex requirements of real business world, i think, we have to go the .net way only.
regarding add-ons, i heard that add-ons will slow down SAP B1. is it true ?
Thanks & Regards,
Raghu iyer

REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY (column headings from ALV to EXCEL) Max please help

Hi Max,
If you remember in one of my last post I asked for changing the column headings in ALV display for example from 'Material' to 'Material used'.
I am using
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
   EXPORTING
      I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM                = repid
      IT_FIELDCAT                       = field_body
      I_SAVE                            = g_save
      IS_VARIANT                        = g_variant
      IT_EVENTS                         = events
    TABLES
      T_OUTTAB                          = itab.
And you suggested me the following way....
loop at field_body into field_wa.
case field_wa-fieldname.
when 'Material'.
     field_wa-seltext_l = 'Material used'.
     field_wa-seltext_m = 'Material used'.
     field_wa-seltext_s = 'Material used'.
endcase.
modify field_body from field_wa.
endloop.
It is working well. In ALV display the column heading is changed to what I wanted. But the question is when I export the displayed ALV to Excel using ALV functionality, Export->Spreadsheet... I see that <b>I dont get the Column Heading into Excel as it was in the ALV display.</b>
I get in the Excel as 'Material u' or 'Mat. Used'. But when I add this line in the code.....
when 'Material'.
     field_wa-seltext_l = 'Material used'.
     field_wa-seltext_m = 'Material used'.
     field_wa-seltext_s = 'Material used'.
    <b> field_wa-outputlen = 20.</b>
Then I see that I get the complete heading in the Excel. But this way the columns with outputlen 20 are taking much space in ALV display.
Is there any fix for this. May be not mentioning the outputlen but still get the column headings into Excel as it was in ALV display.
Anyone with ideas please respond. Waiting for replies. Thanks

Hi
The labels have a fixed size:
seltext_l is long   text: 20 char
seltext_m is medium text: 15 char
seltext_s is short text: 10 char
The text 'Material used' is long 13 char so you should write:
field_wa-seltext_l = 'Material used'.
field_wa-seltext_m = 'Material used'.
field_wa-seltext_s = 'Mat. used'.
You can try to set the field colwidth_optimize of parameter IT_LAYOUT.
This field should optimize the width of the colunm
So
data layout type SLIS_LAYOUT_ALV.
layout-colwidth_optimize = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
EXPORTING
I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM = repid
IT_LAYOUT   = layout
IT_FIELDCAT = field_body
I_SAVE = g_save
IS_VARIANT = g_variant
IT_EVENTS = events
TABLES
T_OUTTAB = itab.
and you can decide which label has to be used:
field_wa-seltext_l = 'Material used'.
field_wa-seltext_m = 'Material used'.
field_wa-seltext_s = 'Mat. used'.
If you want to set the short text
field_wa-ddictxt   = 'S'.
...medium
field_wa-ddictxt   = 'M'.
...long
field_wa-ddictxt   = 'L'.

ALV download to EXCEL with column headings etc.

Getting data from a grid to EXCEL can be done in "List" mode vis system==>save etc but it's not particularly user friendly and in any case if you are displaying a nice ALV why should the user have to switch into LIST mode anyway.
Anyway here's a decent way to do it and it gives great formatted column headings etc etc.
1) in the ON_TOOLBAR method add this code
method ON_TOOLBAR.
type-pools icon.
CLEAR ls_toolbar.
MOVE 0 TO ls_toolbar-butn_type.
    MOVE 'EXCEL' TO ls_toolbar-function.
    MOVE space TO ls_toolbar-disabled.
    MOVE icon_xxl TO ls_toolbar-icon.
    MOVE 'Excel' TO ls_toolbar-quickinfo.
    MOVE 'EXCEL' TO ls_toolbar-text.
    APPEND ls_toolbar TO e_object->mt_toolbar.
2) In the ON_USER_COMMAND method add the following
(if you have a class defined with SE24 you don't need the commented code).
method ON_USER_COMMAND.
       FOR EVENT before_user_command OF cl_gui_alv_grid
       IMPORTING
         e_ucomm
         sender.
CASE e_ucomm.
     .......   other toolbar funcs if you have any
      WHEN 'EXCEL'.
        CALL METHOD me->download_to_excel.
    ENDCASE.
endmethod.
3) code this method to download to EXCEL
method DOWNLOAD_TO_EXCEL.

       CALL FUNCTION 'LVC_TRANSFER_TO_KKBLO'
      EXPORTING
        it_fieldcat_lvc   = <fs1>
    is_layout_lvc     = m_cl_variant->ms_layout
         is_tech_complete = ' '
      IMPORTING
        es_layout_kkblo   = ls_layout
        et_fieldcat_kkblo = lt_fieldcat.
    LOOP AT lt_fieldcat INTO lt_fieldcat_wa.
      CLEAR lt_fieldcat_wa-tech_complete.
      IF lt_fieldcat_wa-tabname IS INITIAL.
        lt_fieldcat_wa-tabname = '1'.
        MODIFY lt_fieldcat FROM lt_fieldcat_wa.
      ENDIF.

              it_fieldcat         = lt_fieldcat
              i_title             = sy-title
         TABLES
              it_outtab           = <fs0>
         EXCEPTIONS
              fatal_error         = 1
              no_display_possible = 2
              OTHERS              = 3.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
      MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE 'S' NUMBER sy-msgno
             WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
    ENDIF.
endmethod.
You get nice column headings etc and decently formatted EXCEL spreadsheet.
For Office 2007 I think you need to apply a SAP note but it certainly works with OFFICE 2003 which is what we are still using.

How to get the Text variables in the Columns Headings

Hi,
     My requirement is I need to get data for weekly wise and for the last 10 weeks also. For this purpose I used the restricted KF based on the variables (customer exit) and offset. Also used the text variable for displaying from and to days in the column headings. I am getting the right text for the first column only. But the text offset is not considering.
Ex 07/04/2007 to 07/10/2007      06/27/2007 to 07/03/2007 like that.
I used the two text variables one for from data and other for to date using the customer exit. I am getting the same text as of the first column for the subsequent columns also. Please help me for getting the right text in the columns.
Thanks,
visu

Hello ,
           The quite simple way is to create a text variable with replacement path , as it replaces the value of customer exit used in the report.
create two text variables
First variable:
1 Replace variable with -
external characteristic key value
For interval use ---from value
2.Secod text variable
Replace variable with -
external characteristic key value
For interval use ---To value
offset start -0000 offset length0000
use these variables in the column headings.
hope it is clear,
assign points if useful

Problem with black Genius bar and column headings

I have just installed the latest version of iTunes and when in Grid view all the column headings have a black background and also the Genius sidebar has a black background.
I have tried to create a new iTunes library and they are still black.
I have installed and uninstalled iTunes - no help.
I've checked my display settings and they are 32 bit color.

To go back, reinstall from your last Lion or Snow Leopard backup.

Column headings in the procedure o/p

Oracle 9i
How to include column headings in the procedure o/p ?

How it can be done ?*Do not use DBMS_OUTPUT for for rendering output. It is the WRONG tool to use!!*
DBMS_OUTPUT does not work like you think it does. It does not display anything. PL/SQL s/w is incapable of displaying anything on a client. That is the client's job.
DBMS_OUTPUT has a buffer variable. This variable resides in the most expensive memory area of an Oracle database. The PGA. When you do a DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line(), you are merely adding a line of text to this buffer variable.
A client can after a database call was made and executed, query this DBMS_OUTPUT buffer - and display and empty its contents. So in order words, the client makes another database call and reads the DBMS_OUTPUT variable.
The wrong part is this.
1. The client calls your PL/SQL code.
2. You use SQL to pull data from the SGA buffer cache into a buffer variable residing in very expensive PGA memory.
3. Your PL/SQL code terminates.
4. The client now makes another PL/SQL database call to DBMS_OUTPUT.
5. The client reads the DBMS_OUTPUT buffer and it renders it locally.
The problem:
- the SQL data is moved about between memory areas on the server (consumes loads memory and CAN cause the server to crash by exhausting server memory)
- the client needs to make multiple calls to get the data, and the data is dumb text strings instead of structured data
The CORRECT approach is:
1. The client calls your PL/SQL code.
2. Your code creates and returns a ref cursor.
3. The client now fetches the data from the database via the ref cursor handle.

Controlling location of Window Split Pane in Excel export of SSRS report to include column headings in frozen/split pane at top

With a SSRS 2008R2 report consisting of a page header and a tablix in the body with columnar information, how can you control which rows are in the Frozen Pane at the top of the workbook when exporting the report to Excel. Currently the top
pane is just the Page Header. I want to include the column headings from the tablix as well.

Hi G,
Based on my test, I can reproduce the issue in my local environment. The report only display page header as the fixed data when export it to Excel. Even the tablix header with fixed date repeats on every page when we render the report in Report Designer,
but it cannot display as fixed data in Excel. This is by design.
To work around this issue, we can add the same content in page header, then adjust the space between page header and report body to make them like a whole tablix.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Katherine Xiong
