Load ALV with Excel Inplace view

Hi.
I'm looking for a way to set the ALV so it will display as Excel-inplace view when it first comes up.
As far as I know this is not possible.
Thanx.
Ayal Telem.

Thank you all for replying.
Actually, the solution to this issue is in the Layout strructure. There is a field called "FRONTEND", which is a flag that controls the "View" options.
I had to do some digging to find out that the Excel Inplace option is "E".
Enjoy.

Excel empty with 'excel inplace' option

Hi everyone,
in order to show my alv data in an excel format, with 'excel inplace' option, this sheet appears empty. However, if i choose to download the data into a excel file, it appears right.
Do you know the reason of this?
Thanks

Excel inplace (ALV) with Excel 2010

Hi,
we have changed our workstation to windows 7 and Office 2010. Now i have a problem
with excal inplace of ALV. When i switch to excel inplace I don't find any way to save or save as the excel.
The button "datei" isn't activ.
Has anyone an idea?
We use GUI 720 patch 4.
Regards, Dieter

A simple workaround working is to "Customize the Quick Access Toolbar" in Excel 2010 itself from the File (Backstage) menu. add the "Save As" icon which carried forward in SAPGUI Excel inplace and now users can at least choose where to save their work as needed.

ALV to Excel inplace and return issue High

Folks;
I have delveloped and ALv program that uses standard SAP access to EXCEL inplace but also contains the selection button process to allow individual line items to be selected to be used for another process within the report.
I can click the Excel Icon and the ALV report downloads and displays properly in Excell inplace. The isue starts, when I manipulate the data in Excel inplace (sort data, sum totals and then display only sums) then click on VIEWS -> SAP LIST Viewer.
This causes one of three conditions to occur;
Either their system will lockup, cancels out all SAP sessions and leave Excel running in the background without any indication that it is still running, or the system will cause a dump.
I even tried with the SAP ddemo program BCALV_TEST_FULLSCREEN_LAYOUT and the same thing occurs with SAP programs.
Has anyone run accross this and found a solution? SAP Notes does not appear to have anything on this.
Thanks for any assistance.
Mike

Hi Michael:
I can reproduce what you say.
Maybe the problem is not from SAP, but from Excel. If you check the windows tasks (CTRL + ALT + DEL) and windows tasks, you will see that CPU is dedicated to Excel. If you finish the Excel process, then you get a blank screen in SAPGUI, and the transaction locked, but you can cancel transaction.
Sorry for not giving a solution, but is just a clue.

No "file - send to" with excel inplace

In excel (Version excel 97) I can send files via "file - send to - email" which starts my email client and attaches the xls file to the mail.
When I use excel inplace in an abap program this option is not available. I still can see it, but it is grey and I cannot choose it
Is it possible to activate this options? I use the methods of desktop office integration to get excel inplace and fill it with data (i_oi_container_control, i_oi_document_proxy, i_oi_spreadsheet).

ALV to Excel Inplace subtotals problem

Dear all,
We have a serious problem. We use "cust_abc.xls" Excel template incorporated into BDS - created from "sap_mm.xls". Here on the Format sheet, there are defined subtotals on approximately five columns.
The problem is, that since we have SAP ECC 6.0 and Excel 2003 the subtotals don't work properly. We can only aggregate (use subtotals) using 3 columns in order to preserve all necessary data displayed (around 28 columns). If we set the subtotals using five columns the subtotals are included in the rows, but the aggregation is not correct and the texts for subtotals are not displayed. Furthermore, when we set creation of subtotals using five columns, we can display only 6 columns of data.
Do you think that this can be caused by the version of SAP - e.g. new ALV displaying functions, bad integration SAP ECC 6.0 <-> Excel?
Our previous version of SAP was 4.6C and everything worked properly.
Thanks a lot everybody.

Excel inplace, fill excel templates

Hey everybody!
Do anyone have documentation or links to it how to fill in templates and mayby abap code examples about exporting data and making kind of headers and footers in Excel inplace from ALV?
I have sap_om.xls and sap_mm.xls, but they are empty when I push 'export to excel' buttom. I couldn't find the way how to reference data from ALV or from abap report to Excel inplace. Maybe I have to fill any exact internal tables to export information (like 'xxx_data_table' or something).

Hi,
Hope you have Excel installed on the PC. THis excel view displays the data you have in the excel workbook instead of the display of tabular display in SAP. YOu can save these files and use them for any purpose.
Also you can get more about this on SAP help with string "displaying data in excel inplace view".
Details are available there.

Manipulating data in Excel inplace via ALV grids

Hi everybody,
I want to create a report which displays data in an Excel file (Excel inplace).
To solve the problem I have created a custom layout and uplodaded it via the report BCALV_BDS_MAINTENANCE to the BDS. The written report loads the data into an ALV grid, opens Excel inplace and displays the data in the custom layout. This works fine but for one exception: You can only upload an internal table to the ALV grid, consequently no additional information about the selected data itself (e.g. given by a custom selection screen) can be presented in the grid. What I need is a way which adds strings to the excel file not in an internal table.
Is there a way to to this? Is this possible with ALV grids or do I have to use OLE?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings, Daniel

Daniel,
Its the TOP_OF_PAGE. See below.
    CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
         EXPORTING
              i_callback_program     = sy-repid       <<<
              i_callback_top_of_page = 'TOP-OF-PAGE' <<<
         TABLES
         EXCEPTIONS
              program_error          = 1
              OTHERS                 = 2.
And then for the call back form.
FORM top-of-page.
ALV Header declarations
DATA: t_header      TYPE slis_t_listheader,
        wa_header     TYPE slis_listheader.
wa_header-typ = 'S'.
wa_header-info = 'Text goes in here'.   <<<<<
APPEND wa_header TO t_header.
CLEAR wa_header.
CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE'
       EXPORTING
            it_list_commentary = t_header.
ENDFORM.
This will add header to your ALV.
Execute the program again and open the same in excel. you will now see the strings/text in the layout.
Hope this helps.
Ravi.

Fewer than expected group outlines after display Excel inplace ALV

After upgrade 4.6 to ECC, I save alv grid layout with sorting and total function . If you switch to the Excel inplace display in ALV, the system displays an "group outlines" option in only first page (nearly 14 groups) . But the next page cannot group the same data in 1 value and no yellow color in subtotal lines
For example :
Current :
Material number   | transaction data |   origin   | actual cost   |
10                     | Good issue       |    A        |   10              |
10                     | Good issue       |    B        |   20              |
10                     |   Good issue      |    C        |   30              |
10                     | Good issue       |              |   60              | *   >>> No yellow color
Need :
Material number   | transaction data |   origin   | actual cost   |
10                     | Good issue       |    A        |   10              |
B
20
C
30
10                     | Good issue       |              |   60              | *   >>> Have yellow color
Please give me the solution ...

ALV switch to Excel inplace & return

Hello.
I've developed a program that outputs information in ALV format.
From there, I'm able to navigate to Excel inplace and the information is displayed as expected.
My Requirement/problem is to make changes in Excel, save them & return to ALV with all information changes too.
The Save button is available in Excel but the option "Close and return to ALV (1)" is inactive from Excel side.
I can navigate back to Abap List Viewer from SAP menu options but I loose all changes made from Excel side.
Can anyone please help in this matter?
Thanks.
Mário

Mario,
Copy all rows and columns in Excel. Navigate back to the ALV. Delete all ALV content. Paste clipboad content copied from Excel into the ALV.

What do i have to install?
Please suggest...

Cover flow shows a thumbnail or icon for each file much like album covers in iTunes. The first is cover flow and the second shot is list view. If you choose list view the shaking vanishes.

ALV Grid in Excel-inplace

Hi,
I am having a report which is being shown in ALV grid. I am having one checkbox in selection-screen namely 'Excel Inplace'.If this checkbox is checked then report should be shown in excel-inplace format.
Please guide me how to achieve this.
I am having below constraints:
1. Here I can't save variant in excel-inplace format and use it while execution, because user can save other variants too(may be with less fields) and use it.
2. I have copied the standard program RFBILA10 and modifying according to my needs. This program is using FM 'REUSE*. So going for ABAP-OO will be difficult here.
Thanks,
Vinod.

You need to use method SET_VIEW_EXCEL.
Call this right after SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY.
PS pl remember this is protected method you need to inherit this
