Fixed sequence of columns in ALV

Hi,
I am using FM 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' to display ALV output.
There are 20 fields in report output. User wants that after display of ALV report, the sequence of first 2 columns should never be changed. However sequenece of other columns can be changed.
I know that using ABAP OO we can handle this through drag and drop events. Here I can not use ABAP OO.
Please suggest some ideas.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Hi Manohar,
No this is not the one I was asking.
This makes the columns fixed when you scroll right.
But what I want is, output has been displayed and by changing layout or using drag and drop functionality of columns, the sequence of the columns can be changed. So I want to fix the sequence of first two columns.
e.g. if there are 20 columns, then after output display column 4 can be taken to column 10.
So in this case column 1 and 2 should not be dragged to anywhere.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Disable re-order columns in ALV Grid

Hi,
I want to disable the option of move/re-order of columns in ALV grid.
Ex: My grid is displaying 5 fields in the order F1, F2, F3, F4 & F5. I can move the columns by dragging then on their header so I can change the fields order to F2, F3, F1, F4 & F5. I want to disable this option of re-arranging the columns in the ALV grid.
Its not related FIX_COLUMN in field catalog.
Thanks & Regards,
Adithya M.

Hi Hima,
FIX_COLUMN is is used to fix the respective columns from moving when horizontal scroll bar is moved.
I want to disable re-arranging of columns, i.e, after displaying the grid the user should not be able to re-arrange/drag the column from one position to other.
Thanks & Regards,

How can i suppress columns in ALV ?? Will reward points.

Hello Gurus, how can i suppress column in ALV when i`m using the transparent table:
CALL METHOD grid->set_table_for_first_display
      EXPORTING
        i_structure_name = 'ZIANEXE'
        is_layout        = wa_layout

      CHANGING
        it_outtab        = itab[]

Please help.

in the fieldcatalog you are providing there is a field NO_OUT use this.
Loop over internal table and check fieldname. If fieldname = column you want to hide, NO_OUT = 'X'.

As far as i know you can't do this,the option you have is to create one more column (subtotal) and populate it by manual calculation at every subtotal (not alv subtotal but yours) .

Hiding empty columns in ALV

Hi all,
I want to hide some columns in ALV which are empty on display when calling
cl_gui_alv_grid->set_table_for_first_display
That is to say the internaltable will contain empty columns.
I know that using the "no_out" attribute of field catalog we can hide columns.
But the question is how to find these columns which are empty - should I have to loop through the itab to find it out OR
Can we set it in ALV LAYOUT or field catalog attributes so that it wont display empty columns.
any help is appreciated....
Thanks

How can I dynamically assign value to a column in ALV LIST Display without using classes and methods?

I have value in A but not in B. Now at runtime user selects one row, clicks on push button in application toolbar, then i have to display value in column B in the already displayed list.
I searched and came to know it can be done with oops concept. but i am not using classes and methods.
so how can i do this?

SAPGUI JAVA 7.10 (OSX 10.5.1): cannot select multiple columns in ALV

Hi,
in sapgui java 7.10 (on mac osx 10.5.1) I cannot select multiple columns in ALV reports.
I can do it only in some transactions (like SE16). But on all our custom reports (REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY) in does not work.
Any hint?
Many thanks,
Lorenzo

Hi Lorenzo,
did you double check if selecting multiple columns works with SAP GUI for Windows in the same report?
If yes, I suggest to file a bug report so we can do a remote logon to run your custom report.
If not it might be because of REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY itself or your parameters calling REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY.
Best regards

Maximum number of character we can print in a column uing ALV grid display

Hi frnds,
My requirment is to print 500 charcter data in a column using ALV grid display.
Could any body tell me is it possible and the maximum character it can i print in a column using ALV grid dispaly.
Regards,
Sandipan

Hi Sandipan,
refer notes 857823, 910300 and 959775. All these say there is a limitation of 128 characters.
857823 - ALV grid: Strings with a maximum of 128 characters
Symptom
Entries in cells of the type CHAR or string are truncated after 128
characters in the SAP GUI.
also refer,
ALV Grid Control (cl_gui_alv_grid), function module (Full-screen) Grid
(Reuse_alv_grid_display, SAPLSLVC_FULLSCREEN), SAPGUI, back end, front end
Cause and Prerequisites
The data table that is sent to the front end only allows character values
with the length 128.
Solution
This is the standard system behavior and cannot be changed.

How to fix Width of column in classic report.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm working an example in APEX 4.2 so YMMV (your milage may vary!).
For Classic Reports, where the Column Attributes "Display As" is set to Display as Text (escape special characters ...:
1) I find that Column width and Element Width setting have no effect to make the column smaller or larger.
2) Here is one way that works:
- In the Region's Region Definition, under Attributes give the Static ID a name (no spaces), say, class-report.
- In the columns you want to affect, place "<div>#ENAME#</div>" in the columns Column Formatting "HTML Expression". Where "ENAME" here is the actual column name.
I'm using the EMP table as an example.
- Finally, in the page's HTML Header put, for example
<style>
#classic-report td.data[headers="ENAME"] div {
width: 200px;
color: blue;
#classic-report td.data[headers="JOB"] div {
width: 50px;
white-space: nowrap;
word-wrap: break-word;
</style>This makes the ENAME column wider and the JOB column smaller and wraps it.
Much more could be said. If you tweak you will find you can also affect spacing above, below and right/left of the data.
#classic-report .report-standard th.header {
border-left: #9fa0a0 1px solid;
padding: 2px 3px 4px 5px; /* top right bottom left margins */
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: bold;
vertical-align: bottom;
#classic-report .report-standard td.data {
border-left: #9fa0a0 1px solid;
padding: 3px 4px 5px 6px;
font-size: 9px;
}Does this help?
