Column selected in a ALV

As I can capture or recognize a column selected in a ALV ?

I'm not sure if you can recognize more selected colums, but you can definitely read the column name which is selected as the first in the field catalog.
If it runs to user_command form, you'll find it in the rs_selfield-fieldname. The rs_selfield structure itself will provide you with more information what might be useful, check it yourself.

Opening TDMS files in Excel - column limit

Hi all,
I'm saving data I obtain using LabVIEW as a TDMS file and have downloaded the add-in to open the files in Excel:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/2944
I'm using Excel 2007, which has a column limit of 16384 and a row limit of 1048576. Each of my datasets is 1024 rows values large and I have 10,000 datasets in total - well within either limit. However, the Excel importer will not open the file - pop-up errors occur and Excel opens multiple files. Has anyone encountered this before?
Miika

Have the same issue. As requested, I've attached a file with 300 dummy groups, each of which as 4 channels of dummy data.
When loaded into Excel, only the first 254 groups are shown:

Need multiple lines in single column of header using alv oops

Hi
I am using alv oops in a report.
I need multiple lines in single column of header.
In header of my report i am using 9 columns.
In the second column i need to split the line
Notification description/activity/work/activity long text/
as
Notification description/
activity/
work/
activity long text/
Please guide me to achieve this functionality.

It is not possible to break the column description in the ALV disply.
Actually, if you have a longer description in one of the seltext_* field of the fiels catalog, it will automatically display it as a tooltip, if you put the mouse over the heading. In ALV OO, you can explicitly set the tooltip text.
Also you can get more help on the field pressing F1: If you use DDIC fields, it it automatic, otherwise you can do it as you like.

Dynamic value assignment to a particular column in a vertical ALV

Hi Friends,
In the present program ALV has 44 fields and output row is only one(with some field editable).
My requirement is to change present output to vertical ALV and editable field should be available
as editable.
Now I have changed this to transposed ALV manually(not dynamically) with required fields editable.
Now there is 44 rows and two column "FIELD and "VALUE'.Some values in the second column is editable.
Previously output was like this:
field1 field2 field3 ...
val1 val2 val3 ...
Now output is like:
FIELD VALUE
field1 value1(type INT)
field2 value2(type char5) Editable(need F4 help)
field3 value3(type date)
My present structure declaration is:
types: begin of ty_itab,
 field type char 50,
 value type char70,
 celltab type lvc_t_styl,(for editing some values in VALUE column).
 end of ty_itab.
data: itab type standard table of ty_itab.
Now the second column i have declared as CHAR70 which contains only char
values because to put all differt types of values to one single column named
'VALUE'.
But as field1 field2 field3... had differnt type of value like integer char date...I need to validate some values
(specially those which are editable) before saving to custom DB table.
So I need dynamic value assignment to VALUE column when preparing internal table for display.
What I want to say is that VALUE column should be able to contain different type of values like INT, DATE, CHAR...etc
Is the requirement is feasible?
If yes then How should I declare the structure and populate different type of values within single column 'VALUE'.
Also is it possible to have F4 helps in the second column (VALUE)???

Hi Manab,
I did something comparable: We have a very complex transaction with several subscreens with multiple fields to be filled with complex logic to create a very special contract. The requirement was to create a method to create a copy of this contract being able to apply some changes.
I created a wizard (transaction SBPT_WIZARD_BUILDER - Wizard-Builder) to accomplish that. I grouped all the fields to just 3 logical groups and thius created 3 stesp where the user gets an ALV as you describe, but we have the rows like FIELD with the new value editable. Additionally I have hidden fields with table name and field name so that I can determine the characteristics (datatype) at run time.
The value fields are just strings (every ALV field is a text field on the surface).
For editable fields, you have an event DATA_CHANGED. I used this method as a handler for the event:
(I will leave out the wizard part here - maybe a good idea for a blog to explain that)
METHOD handle_data_changed.
 CALL FUNCTION 'RS_CONV_EX_2_IN'
 EXPORTING
 input_external = <mod>-value
 table_field = ls_tabfield
I also created handlers for F1 and F4
Handler for CL_GUI_ALV_GRID->ONF1
METHOD handle_f1.
 CALL FUNCTION 'HELP_OBJECT_SHOW_FOR_FIELD'
 EXPORTING
 called_for_tab = lv_tabname
 called_for_field = lv_fieldname
 EXCEPTIONS
 object_not_found = 1
 sapscript_error = 2
 OTHERS = 3.
Handler for CL_GUI_ALV_GRID->HANDLE_F4
METHOD handle_f4.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
 EXPORTING
 tabname = lv_tabname
 fieldname = lv_fieldname
 TABLES
 return_tab = lt_return_tab
 EXCEPTIONS
 OTHERS = 5.
 er_event_data->m_event_handled = abap_true.
* if er_event_data->m_event_handled is not set to abap_true, system will handle it.
* In this context the message 'Keine Eingabehilfe verfügbar' will be displayed
ENDMETHOD.
This is just an excerpt from my project. It shows that you can do more in ALV as you knew.
I tried to post a little more but the formatting break down, possibly a result of the character limit

Clemens

How to find number of columns used in a ALV variant

I need to know how many column is active ( will be shown in the ALV report ) related to a specific ALV Variant.
Example :
The structure of my internal table has 147 columns.
The user in a specific ALV variant has chosen 25 columns of those 147 colums, so I need to know that this ALV variant will show 25 columns.
Thanks! Jo

Hi Max,
Thanks for hints.
Finnally I did the verification at the beginning of my process.
Because I need the information before getting the data, so I called the METHOD with a "dummy" table,
and I received the info of what I need, the number of column related to a specific ALV Variant.
I used :
ls_variant-report = sy-repid.
ls_variant-variant = p_alvvar. "<<< Select-option field for AVL Variant
ls_variant-log_group = 'L01'.
 CALL METHOD lo_grid1->set_table_for_first_display
 EXPORTING
 i_structure_name = 'MY_STRUCTURE'
 is_variant = ls_variant
 is_layout = ls_layout
 i_save = 'A'
 i_default = 'X'
 I_BYPASSING_BUFFER = 'X'
 CHANGING
 it_fieldcatalog = LT_FIELDCATALOG
 it_outtab = lt_dummy[].
 CALL METHOD lo_grid1->GET_FRONTEND_FIELDCATALOG
 IMPORTING
 ET_FIELDCATALOG = LT_FIELDCATALOG.
loop at LT_FIELDCATALOG into ls_FIELDCATALOG where no_out = space.
 add 1 to LV_NB_COLUMNS.
endloop.

Assigning Column Headers Dynamically in ALV output

Hello Experts,
I have to create dynamic column headers based on the user input on the selection-screen. Basically users enter the period and the ALV output has to create the column headers dynamically for that along with some standard columns.
For eg, The selection screen is like this:
From: 'Q4' '2009'
To 'Q2' '2011'.
Then I have to create 12 columns for the months and rest for the Quarters.
Then the output will be like this:
Material, Description,10/09, 11/09, 12/09, 01/10, 02/10, 03/10, 04/10, 05/10, 06/10, 07/10, 08/10, 09/10, Q4/10, Q1/11, Q2/11
I have built the logic to determine the number of colums for the periods based on input.
By reading other posts, I have learnt that I have to use call method cl_alv_table_create=>create_dynamic_table to get the functionality.
I have also looked at program BCALV_TABLE_CREATE for some help. It only has column headers in increasing order. But I am not able to understand How to pass the Column Header Label (for eg 10/09 or Q1/10) to the fieldcat dynamically.
Is there any blog/sample prog close to my req? Can anybody please please help me. I grealy appreciate it.
Thanks.

Hi Lope,
You need to filll column heading based on dynamic internal table column names.
In your final internal table, you will have some column names like '1009, 1109, 1209' .
While filling fieldcatalog you need to put your logic for column heading text.
If column name is 1009, concatenate '10 ' '/' '09', or calculate the quarter 10 falls into ,and display Q4/09.

Nisha Vengal.

You need to get the perticular column object from the COLUMNS object
Like:
data: lr_columns type ref to cl_salv_columns_table,
        lr_column type ref to cl_salv_column_table.
lr_columns = gr_table->get_columns( ).
try.
      lr_column ?= lr_columns->get_column( 'FIELD1' ).
      lr_column->set_short_text( 'Custom Text' ).
      lr_column->set_medium_text( 'Custom Text' ).
      lr_column->set_long_text( 'Custom Text' ).
    catch cx_salv_not_found.                            "#EC NO_HANDLER
