Find & sort function in UDO table

Dear experts,
I have created a standard document UDO using Object registration wizard. I have ticked "find" combobox in modifying services. But when i open the UDO table, the "find" button in toolbar is not active.
how can i activate the find button with some kind of find mode or find option? because i want to find a specific data in the UDO table
and how can i sort the column alphabetically?
Thank you

Dear all,
Thanks for the prompt answer. I've already did all of your suggestions but it is still not working. The problem is that i want to find specific customer in the UDO table from about thousands of existing business partners. how can i find a specific customer with some kind of "find" function? because when i open the UDO table, the find button in the toolbar is not active & i can't use it. And one more question, how can i sort the column alphabetticaly in the UDO table? because it can make us easier to find the customers by alphabet, if we can't use "find" function & we will use this method as alternative.
Any ideas?
Thank You

Sort Functionality in Advanced table.

Dear Friends,
I have a OAF page developed with advance table region which has around 7 columns .
under every column i have created a "sortable header field " also i had set the sort allowed property to TRUE ,
but still when ever i click on sort button i am unable to sort the column in a advanced table .
Please give me your suggestion .
Thanks in Advance,
Keerthi.k

When you set sort allowed property to true , the column header has a sort image which when clicked reverses the sort directions.
Need to create separate headers for the purpose of sorting.

Sort up down icon missing after implementing sort functionality

Hi,
I have implemented sort functionality for a table, and it is working fine, but there is no sortable icon available on the table column.
The icon with the up/down arrow is missing. Once the sorting is over, the sorted icon apears on the screen. But the up/down sort icon should appear on the column header so that it is intutive and people know that the table columns are sortable.
What am i doing wrong ? How can I get the icon ?
Thank you.
Warm regards,
Ashish

This is really important, The sort functionality is working fine but the up and down arrow icon is missing on the table.
Does anyone know how I can enable this icon ?

Coding for giving 'find' functionality to a table control field

hi.
i want to give find functionality to a table control field.when ever i will select one field & i will enter 'find' icon one modal screen comes.when i will enter one value of that field it will highlight that field in the table control.

Hi,
FIND <p> IN [SECTION OFFSET <off> LENGTH <len> OF] <text>
            [IGNORING CASE|RESPECTING CASE]
            [IN BYTE MODE|IN CHARACTER MODE]
            [MATCH OFFSET <o>] [MATCH LENGTH <l>].
The system searches the field <text> for the pattern <p>. The SECTION OFFSET <off> LENGTH <len> OF addition tells the system to search only from the <off> position in the length <len>. IGNORING CASE or RESPECTING CASE (default) specifies whether the search is to be case-sensitive. In Unicode programs, you must specify whether the statement is a character or byte operation, using the IN BYTE MODE or IN CHARACTER MODE (default) additions. The MATCH OFFSET and MATCH LENGTH additions set the offset of the first occurrence and length of the search string in the fields <p> and <l>.

Priya.

Sort functionality using MULTIPLE columns in a table control

Hi all,
I have a custom screen with table control.Now i need to provide SORT functinality in this screen for the columns in the table control.
My questins:
1.Is it possible to seelct MULTIPLE columns in a table control for SORTING?If yes,what explicit settings do i need to do while creatng the TABEL CONTROL in the screen?DO I need to select "Column selection " as MULTIPLE??
2.How do I write the code for SORT functinonality for multiple columns?
I know how to write the code for SORTING on basis of single column .
Thanks!

Hi Rob,
Thanks for the reply.
However I was thinking to apply the same logic as for single columns as follows:
types : begin of ty_fields,
            c_fieldname(20),
           end of ty_fields.
data : t_fields type table of ty_fields,
           wa_fields like line of t_fields.
WHEN 'SORTUP'.(Ascending)
      loop at TABLE tc01-cols INTO wa_tc01 where selected = 'X'.
      SPLIT wa_tc01-screen-name AT '-' INTO g_help g_fieldname.
      wa_fields-c_fieldname = g_fieldname.
      append wa_fields to t_fields.
      endloop.
      describe table t_fields lines l_index.
      c_count = 1.
      if c_count <= l_index.
      read table t_fields into wa_fields index c_count.
      case c_count.
      when '1'.
      l_field1 = wa_fields-c_fieldname.
      when '2'.
     l_field2 = wa_fields-c_fieldname.
    and so on depending on the no of columns in the table control...
      endcase.
      endif.
      SORT t_tvbdpl_scr BY l_fields1 l_fields 2......l_fieldn.
Let me know if the above method will work!Also for the above method to work will the type of fields(columns on whihc sort function will be applied) matter???
Thanks again for your time.

Adding a 'sort by' option to table data in webhelp output

RH8 HTML
Hi all,
Just wondering (again) if its possible to add a sort feature to a table?
currently, I've got multiple topics that look like the following. They are a breakdown of all fields/buttons and their functions
field name
description
example
customer id
description of field
example data to be entered
name
description of field
example data to be entered
customer order no
description of field
example data to be entered
job title
description of field
example data to be entered
this is the order that the fields appear on the user form, I'm wondering if I could add a 'Sort By A-Z' and 'Sort by Appearance' options so the user can view the fields, descriptions, and examples either by the order it appears, or in alphabetical order - all the while the description and example fields moving with the sort.
Just gives a bit more functionality for users so they can find a field quickly if the list is a bit bigger by using an alpha sort
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
Normally, the browser shows a pointer over a hyperlink. You might have the script set up slightly different than Peter.
A quick fix is as following:
Identify the element you want to see a pointer, probably something like TableHeading. In your css, add:
P.TableHeading
Be carefull with this, it may confuse people if they see a mouse cursor they don't expect. Your best bet is still to figure out if you have set the script up exactly as described on Peter's page.

How to find latest entry in the table according to time

how to find latest entry in the table according to the time
is there any function module to do so
\[removed by moderator\]
Regards
Shashi
Edited by: Jan Stallkamp on Aug 25, 2008 4:39 PM

Hi,
If you want to read the entry from an internal table,
sort the internal table in the descending order by the time and
delete adjacent duplicates by comparing the fields other than time and the internal table will have the latest record.
Suggestion: instead of only time try to have one more field called date with the time combination

Aggregate functions for internal table.

Hi Gurus,
I'm just wondering whether we can use aggregate functions for internal table. I wanted to know the max value for a particular column in my internal table. How can I achieve this easily and quickly.
Thanks,
David.

sort the table on which you want the maximum value and read it. Please find below example code.
TYPES : BEGIN OF ty_mvke,
        matnr TYPE mvke-matnr,
        vkorg TYPE mvke-vkorg,
        vtweg TYPE mvke-vtweg,
       AUMNG type mvke-AUMNG,
        END OF ty_mvke.
DATA : wa_mvke TYPE ty_mvke,
       it_mvke TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_mvke.
data : temp_AUMNG type AUMNG.
START-OF-SELECTION.
SELECT matnr vkorg vtweg AUMNG FROM mvke INTO
        table it_mvke.
sort it_mvke by AUMNG.
read TABLE it_mvke into wa_mvke INDEX 1.
if sy-subrc = 0.
move wa_mvke-AUMNG to temp_AUMNG.
write : temp_AUMNG.
endif.
Thanks,

Sorting functionality for originals checked-in through cv01n

Hello All,
I would like to know whether there is a possiblity of sorting descriptions of multiple original files check-in to the same DIR using CV01n.

Hi,
unfortunatly there is not such sorting functionality in CV01N or CV02N for the attached originals.
The sequence of the originals depends on the sequence in which they were added. So if you add an originals it receives a special application number (ORIGINALTYPE). According to this number the originals are sorted.
Maybe you can try to edit this 'ORIGINALTYPE' number by using BAPI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE2. First you should execute BAPI_DOCUMENT_GETDETAIL2 to receive all document related information. In table 'DOCUMENTFILES' you will also find the field 'ORIGINALTYPE' and its values.
This data can then be handed over to CHANGE2 BAPI and you should be able to modify the application numbers and so the way of sorting.
After this change please use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT to realise the changes also on the database.
However please note that this is just a proposal and I have no confirmation if this will work.
Best regards,
Christoph

Sort functionality in Data Grid

Hi Gurus,
I am new to this DataGrid control.I want to establish the sort functionality when clicking on the headercolumns as in matrices.
(ie.When double clicking the header column , sort the data in ascending or descending order of that column) like in system form matrices.
How ever this is not possible when I tried with grid control.
The problem I am facing is that I cannot get the column headers of the grid programmatically.(in duble click event or itempressed event)
Anybody did this one previously? Also how
we can change the column order of the grid using screen painter?
The columns that actually come visible in the grid are actually columns of the linked datatable object.
In the designer ,there is no "swap" button for column re-ordering.
Only one way I know is changing the query associated with datatable.
This is a crucial thing ,since client may ask for re-ordering of columns frequently.
Can anybody help?
Regards,
Deepesh

Hi Deepesh,
1. This functionality is not available with the SDK. Thus it's not possible to change it on the fly. Your only option is to change the query associated with datatable (as you mentioned). You may set up a user preference table, that the user can configure with its preference. That's the best you can do.
2. To swap the columns in screen painter you must use SBO 2005 (it's not available on previous release). What you must do is, click on the one column you want to swap and the other you want to swap and click on the swap button (on the left bottom of the page in the columns tab)

How to find middle row in a table ?

Hi Friends,
Is it possible to find middle row in a table by SQL Query.
KarTiK.

Solution: sort the rows in order to create an ordered
sequence and then there will be a "middle row".Well, not quite.
If there are an odd number of rows then, yes, there will be a middle row in an ordered sequence, however if there is an even number of rows then the middle is between two rows... or... you could take it as the two rows either side of the middle....

How to find out structure of internal table?

Hi
is there any way how to find out name of structure upon which internal
table was created?
i got internal table passed to function module by any table
type. There can be different types of table passed in. Inside of
module a need to find out the structure of table.
I've found a tricky way how to find this information using following
command 'DESCRIBE FIELD dobj INTO td.', but its probably not a correct
way because using this command is not recommended in application
programs.
Is there any function module, or something i can use for getting this information?
Thanks

Thanks very much
This has solved my problem:
DATA descr_ref TYPE ref to cl_abap_typedescr.
DATA tabname TYPE string.
descr_ref = cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_data( itab ).
tabname = descr_ref->absolute_name.
