hI..,
Your table declaration has to be like this..
TYPES : BEGIN OF FS_OUTPUT .
INCLUDE STRUCTURE HRPDV_EXPIRED_Q.
TYPES TEXT(20) TYPE C.
TYPES END OF FS_OUTPUT.
DATA: ALV_OUTPUT LIKE standard table of fs_output initial size 0.
loop at alv_output <b>into fs_output</b>.
<b>fs</b>_output-text(20) = 'abcdefgh'.
<b>modify alv_output index sy-tabix from fs_output transporting text.</b>
endloop.
Now give this table alv_output to the GRID_DISPLAY function module..
you will get the required output !!
Plz do remember to close the thread when ur problem is solved !!
