Do you get a excel with empty sheet with excel in place ?
Then you need to enable macro in trust center of excel sheet settings. The way you do this depends on the version of excel you are using.
I am able to get 200+ columns perfectly this way.

Hi,
I had the same problem,
Run a consistency check for your ALV and you will find out. See if you havent passed any unnecessary parameter to FM.

How can I download and view a pdf with iphone?

How can I download and view a pdf with iphone?

If the PDF is an email attachment, you can view it by tapping on the attachment icon while you are viewing the email message. Another option is to set up a dropbox account and then use a computer to drop the PDF into your account. Install the iOS dropbox app and you can view PDFs there that way.

How to download a Block List based ALV report to PDF file?

Hi Everyone,
I need to display a report in block list alv format using REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_DISPLAY... I have done this. But my problem comes next.
1. I need to download this report to a pdf file in the user given directory - in presentation server. How can I download this in PDF format.
2. My report has TOP_OF_LIST and END_OF_LIST events. The body of the report contains a table with some material data. There should be 1 table for each material no. There are around 50 records for each material no. So I am looping at the material no. and calling REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_APPEND.
Now my problem is that I should have only 20 records in each page. How can I determine this? How do I put a page-break?
Please anyone help me.

Hi Anwesha
You can send the report output to spool using the IS_PRINT parameter of REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_DISPLAY FM. Then read the spool number generated and pass it to CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to get the pdf content which could be downloaded to presentation server.
The splitting of records on count could be done by calling above method with different internal table filtered as per your requirement.

Download ALV report with layout to application server

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem as follows:
I have one ALV Grid report. This report is very time consuming.
That is why, user wants this to be run in background every night and in the morning when user comes to the office that ALV report should be on user's drive in excel format.
However, it should run with one specific variant and that variant should be dynamically populated. (I have handled this part)
It should also apply specific layout that has many filtering conditions.
As I can not download ALV to excel in background, I decided to download it to the Application server.
My problem is that when run in background, in spool ALV report shows o/p with proper filter conditions that is 5 out of 20 records.
But, when I write this report o/p to Application server, it writes all the records in there, i.e., all 20 records. It does not take into account all the filters. [:(]
I also tried downloading spool to excel, but o/p is not neatly formatted. All columns are fying here and there.
Any suggestion, how can I write ALV o/p to Application server with layout into consideration?
P.S. I have searched forum for this type of query, but no apt responses.
Thanks

did u downloaded the report with standard option provided in the alv and checked the data? that is populating all 20 records?. if so then use coding for achieving the standard one
at the end of selection do like this ..
SET USER-COMMAND ' %PC' .
and in the user-command use like this..
case sy-ucomm.
when ' %PC'.
give the file name ..
do processing ..
endcase.

Download alv report in excel format in Linux

Hi All,
I am working on SAP GUI for Java in Linux PC. I have installed
Open Office.
After executing an alv report there is no spreadsheet option
to download the report in excel format .
Also, when doing Save as Local File -> Spreadsheet ,
the report is not downloaded in proper format.
So, how to download the alv reports in excel format ?

Hi Vinod ,
Save as Local File -> Spreadsheet
It will ask for Directory and file name with .xls format . Give proper name e.g. test.xls and save, and after saving file right click on the file and click on Open with "OpenOffice.org calc".
It will definetly work.

Download ALV report in back ground in local directry

thanks to all but my porblem is download the ALV report in background in local directry.
sriram.

HI ,
   Find the small code to download the file in background.
n SAP ABAP you can transfer the contents of the internal table to a file. This is required when you wish to extract data from SAP tables into a flat file. This file can then be used to transfer data to another SAP or NON SAP system. This can also be used for an interfacing when you wish to transfer data on a daily or a weekly basis from R/3 to NON R/3 or SAP. The command used to create a file on the application server is as follows.
OPEN DATASET
Please see example code below.
REPORT ZEX_DATATOFILE .
*& ABAPLOVERS: Data Transfer
Parameters to enter the path
PARAMETERS FILENAME(128) DEFAULT '/usr/tmp/testfile.dat'
                         LOWER CASE.
Table Declaration
TABLES VBAK.
Data Declaration
DATA D_MSG_TEXT(50).
Get data for file transfer
DATA INT_VBAK LIKE VBAK OCCURS 100
                   WITH HEADER LINE.
SELECT * FROM VBAK INTO TABLE INT_VBAK.
SORT INT_VBAK BY VBELN.
LOOP AT INT_VBAK.
WRITE: / INT_VBAK-VBELN,
           INT_VBAK-KUNNR.
ENDLOOP.
Opening the File
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE
                      MESSAGE D_MSG_TEXT.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
WRITE: 'File cannot be opened. Reason:', D_MSG_TEXT.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
Transferring Data
LOOP AT INT_VBAK.
TRANSFER INT_VBAK-VBELN TO FILENAME.
ENDLOOP.
Closing the File
CLOSE DATASET FILENAME.
