Pass header from alv to excel

hi,
can any one explain me how to pass header from my alv report when i wish to download it to excel.
but the problem here is the header of my alv report comes form a table in to which more fields can be added in future.now the table contains 10 fields in future fields may grow up to n.
pls help with good solution i am using gui download to pass data to excel but only body of the report is downloaded.
thnks
vamsi

Sample Code -
CALL FUNCTION 'ALV_XXL_CALL'
 EXPORTING
 i_tabname = 'T_GRID' " Name of the Internal table
 it_fieldcat = t_fcatk[] " Field catalog
 TABLES
 it_outtab = t_grid " Interbnal table with data
 EXCEPTIONS
 fatal_error = 1
 no_display_possible = 2
 OTHERS = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 MESSAGE e806(bk).
ENDIF.
It opens the excel and passes the data directly. All you need to do is to pass your ALV's field catalog here. Just transfer your field catalog in the form of KKBLO_T_FIELDCAT. Thats it.

Download ICONS from ALV to EXCEL

kind regards

Hi Jeff,
Please check if following analysis is helpful to you.
Analysis/Solution:
When we export ALV data to excel worksheet, as sap notes say the maximum lenght allowed is 1023 charaters and the max no of columns supported is 90.
(I never faced any issue related to no of columns as it worked fine for columns >90 too)
Issue occured when row size of exported data gets more than 1023 character.
Therefore the row data must not exceed 1023 character, otherwise column splits and moves to next row.
One additional aspect generally missed is that:
When data in any particular column changes it's length, alv header also changes its lengh (short text, medium text, long text; depending on the length of of the longest cell in the column)
therefore even if you have total length of row less than 1023 character, there might be cases when your ALV header size exceeds this length.
Reducing the header size (by forcing to use short text or specifying own header names) should resolve the issue.

Export from ALV to Excel - problem with numeric values

hi folks,
when exporting from alv to excel and we have negative values (and using an u.s.a. setting where . and , are different to r/3) negetive values are not shown correctly in excel.
when changing in win nt the regional settings to europe one's (e.g. germany) everything works fine.
any hints welcome,
kind regards
oliver

I guess this has something to do with the excel settings. In the control panel you have regional settings.try some options there. It might work.

Problrn when downloas from ALV to excel

Hi All.
I am trying to download data from ALV to excel file, but only last pages are downloaded and not from frist pages?
Can anyone tell me wht it is happening and what is the solution?
Thanks.

Hi PKB,
My initial analysis of your query is as follows.
You can test the same by debugging the report after pressing the send to excel report. See the internal table is gettting deleted anywhere in between. If yes analyse it is happening and correct it if possible.
Let me know if any further help is required by providing further details.

REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY (column headings from ALV to EXCEL) Max please help

Hi Max,
If you remember in one of my last post I asked for changing the column headings in ALV display for example from 'Material' to 'Material used'.
I am using
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
 EXPORTING
 I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM = repid
 IT_FIELDCAT = field_body
 I_SAVE = g_save
 IS_VARIANT = g_variant
 IT_EVENTS = events
 TABLES
 T_OUTTAB = itab.
And you suggested me the following way....
loop at field_body into field_wa.
case field_wa-fieldname.
when 'Material'.
 field_wa-seltext_l = 'Material used'.
 field_wa-seltext_m = 'Material used'.
 field_wa-seltext_s = 'Material used'.
endcase.
modify field_body from field_wa.
endloop.
It is working well. In ALV display the column heading is changed to what I wanted. But the question is when I export the displayed ALV to Excel using ALV functionality, Export->Spreadsheet... I see that I dont get the Column Heading into Excel as it was in the ALV display.
I get in the Excel as 'Material u' or 'Mat. Used'. But when I add this line in the code.....
when 'Material'.
 field_wa-seltext_l = 'Material used'.
 field_wa-seltext_m = 'Material used'.
 field_wa-seltext_s = 'Material used'.
 field_wa-outputlen = 20.
Then I see that I get the complete heading in the Excel. But this way the columns with outputlen 20 are taking much space in ALV display.
Is there any fix for this. May be not mentioning the outputlen but still get the column headings into Excel as it was in ALV display.
Anyone with ideas please respond. Waiting for replies. Thanks

Hi
The labels have a fixed size:
seltext_l is long text: 20 char
seltext_m is medium text: 15 char
seltext_s is short text: 10 char
The text 'Material used' is long 13 char so you should write:
field_wa-seltext_l = 'Material used'.
field_wa-seltext_m = 'Material used'.
field_wa-seltext_s = 'Mat. used'.
You can try to set the field colwidth_optimize of parameter IT_LAYOUT.
This field should optimize the width of the colunm
So
data layout type SLIS_LAYOUT_ALV.
layout-colwidth_optimize = 'X'.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
EXPORTING
I_CALLBACK_PROGRAM = repid
IT_LAYOUT = layout
IT_FIELDCAT = field_body
I_SAVE = g_save
IS_VARIANT = g_variant
IT_EVENTS = events
TABLES
T_OUTTAB = itab.
and you can decide which label has to be used:
field_wa-seltext_l = 'Material used'.
field_wa-seltext_m = 'Material used'.
field_wa-seltext_s = 'Mat. used'.
If you want to set the short text
field_wa-ddictxt = 'S'.
...medium
field_wa-ddictxt = 'M'.
...long
field_wa-ddictxt = 'L'.

I am using the foloowing field cat:
l_col_pos = l_col_pos + 1.
    wa_fieldcat-col_pos = l_col_pos.
    wa_fieldcat-outputlen = 32.
     wa_fieldcat-fieldname = 'SOLLWERT'.
     wa_fieldcat-inttype   = 'P'.
*    wa_fieldcat-tabname = 'i_final'.
    wa_fieldcat-seltext_l = text-t11.         "Target Value
    APPEND wa_fieldcat TO i_fieldcat.
    CLEAR wa_fieldcat.
I have use this also in the field cat but stil i get space in the excel header.

Also the space comes with the descrip[tion in the cell of excel.

Download data from ALV to excel issue

Hi All,
Could you please tell me if there has any restriction on ALV grid data download to excel? I've a report contains 68 columns and about 500 rows, I want to download the data using the standard menu list->export->save to local file. but after I download them, I found the first 65 columns display in one line and the rest columns display in next line, just like ALV do not allow too many characters in one row and have to switch to new line. I can hide some columns but it's very strange that even after i hide 3 columns to fit the 500 rows download, then if the rows increase, the same problem occurs.
I searched the forum and in the thread Re: Export ALV in EXCEL Issue Mr. Suvajit provided a solution by using menu List->export->spreadsheet, it looks very good. But I still want to know how this happen and is there a standard way to download data with more than 65 columns to local file with extension .xls so that user can open it directly?
PS: I'm using FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY and the SAP version is SAP ECC6 with kernal package SAPKB70103.
Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Jeff

Display of leading zeroes when downloaded from ALV to excel

Hi All,
I have a problem in ALV grid display.
There is a specific field which has value starting from '001' to '999'. This is a char(3) type of variable.
The problem is that the display shows the value as '001' which is correct. but when the same file is dwnloaded to excel using standard SAP functionality, the value of the field gets changed to '1' instead of '001'.
Is there any option by which this can be controlled. Please let me know, its urgent!!
thanks

hi Ankur,
the Excel download is done by Z program? IF yes you have to do:
SET PROPERTY OF go_cell 'NumberFormat' = '@'.
this will set the Excel cell to Text type and leading zeros won't be lost.

Reg : export data from ALV to excel file

Hi All,
I am using REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY to display the output. I have total 73 columns getting displayed in output but when i export the data to the excel file using (ctrlshiftF9) I am getting only first 43 columns in the first row and from 44th column on wards the data is populated in the 1st column of second row.
Please let me know is there any particular setting by which I can get all the 73 columns in a single row.
Thanks in advance.
VIJAY

Hi vijay,
You can try setting your line width to 255 in your abap program.
Otherwise, you can try an alternative:
1. Put a customize button on the ALV toolbar.
2. Go to se41 to create th buttons
2. do i_callback_program in ALV function. or SET PF_STATUS
3. Then in sy-ucomm, use 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' to xls.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks

Exporting data from ALV to Excel...

Hi All,
I am trying to export report to Excel with ALV Excel option on status bar, it works fine for 3 months data with 80 columns in the report. But when I run the report for one year data then report displays data fine in R/3 but when I download to Excel it's empty. The eroor is Dataset can't be processed by Excel.
Then I tried with option Download ->Local file->spreadsheet. which doesn't save headers in it. And colums coming in two lines But user wants all columns with header if i do with this option it's not pulling headers.
Please let me know if anybody had the same issue and came up with solution. That would be really great!
Thank you.

Hi Satya,
Thanks for your reply.
There will be around 60,000 records in the report with 80 to 100 columns. ALV report looks fine in R/3 but while downloading to Excel only it's saying ' Dataset can't be complete'. For 3,000 to 4,000 records it works fine.
Is this because of huge data?
