Finding total no.of pages in ALV.

Question

Hello All,
I have used the class "CL_SALV_HIERSEQ_TABLE" to display Hierarchical-Sequential ALV.
I have got the event TOP_OF_PAGE from the method GET_EVENT and using this event
I am able to print the current page number(event has exporting parameter page)
on every page while printing.
Now I require the total no.of pages so that I can print in x of YY method.
x - currrent page
YY - total no.of pages.
As this is Hierarchical ALV I dont think it is a good idea to count the total no.of records
in internal table and calculate the no.of pages.
Help me in solving this
With regards,

Answer 1

Hello Ramneek,
           But how can we calculate the no.of lines that can excatly fit in a page, because in normal ALV the rows are fixed
so by counting the no.of records in internal table we can come to a conclusion. But in hierarchical ALV there is user action involved with expanding the rows as well as closing them, changing the layout like making header or item details to appear in line1,line2 and line3. So I think it is very difficult in that way.
Could you please suggest any other method for this.
