Setting the column labels in webdynpro abap alv report

Hello,
Right now I have programmed an ALV report. The selection criterion and the display of the report all work.
However, there is an issue with the labels of columns in the ALV report. The report takes the field names of the structure I am using in the ALV report as the labels of the report. I have been trying to play around with the ALV class model to see if something will change the labels of the fields but to no avail. Would you guys know of some code or way to change the labels of the columns in the ALV report.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Sumit.
Here is some of the code I tried but does no work in the wdInit() method. It does not change the label. Any suggestions???
METHOD wddoinit .
* instantiate used component from wizard
DATA lo_cmp_usage TYPE REF TO if_wd_component_usage.
lo_cmp_usage =   wd_this->wd_cpuse_alv( ).
IF lo_cmp_usage->has_active_component( ) IS INITIAL.
  lo_cmp_usage->create_component( ).
ENDIF.
* call a method in the used component from wizard
  DATA lo_interfacecontroller TYPE REF TO iwci_salv_wd_table .
  lo_interfacecontroller =   wd_this->wd_cpifc_alv( ).
    DATA lo_value TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_config_table.
    lo_value = lo_interfacecontroller->get_model(
DATA: lr_field TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_field.
lr_field = lo_value->if_salv_wd_field_settings~get_field( 'CUSTOMER_NUMBER' ).
* change the label of the report.
DATA: lr_CUSTOMER_NUMBER TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column.
            CALL METHOD lo_value->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_column
              EXPORTING

ENDMETHOD.

You have to disable the DDic binding on the column before your override text will show up:
data: l_ref_cmp_usage type ref to if_wd_component_usage.
  l_ref_cmp_usage =   wd_this->wd_cpuse_alv( ).

  l_table = l_salv_wd_table->get_model( ).
  data l_column type ref to cl_salv_wd_column.
  l_column = l_table->if_salv_wd_column_settings~get_column( 'POSTING_DATE' ).
  data l_header type ref to cl_salv_wd_column_header.
  l_header = l_column->get_header( ).

  • How can i  change the column label text in a alv table display

    how can i change the column label text in a alv table display??
    A similar kinda of question was posted previuosly where the requirement was the label text was needed and following below code was given as solution :
    <i>*  declare column, settings, header object
    DATA: lr_column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column.
    DATA: lr_column_settings TYPE REF TO if_salv_wd_column_settings.
    DATA: lr_column_header type ref to CL_SALV_WD_COLUMN_HEADER.
    get column by specifying column name.
    lr_column = lr_column_settings->get_column( 'COLUMN_NAME1' ).
    set Header Text as null
    lr_column_header = lr_column->get_header( ).
    lr_column_header->set_text( ' ' ).</i>
    My specific requirement is i have an input field on the screen and i want reflect that value as the column label for one of the column in the alv table. I have used he above code with slight modification in the MODIFYVIEW method of the view since it is a process after input. The component gets activated without any errors but while run time i get an error stating
    <i>"The following error text was processed in the system CDV : Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible."</i>
    i have checked in debugging and the error occured at the statement :
    <i>lr_column = lr_column_settings->get_column( 'CURRENT_YEAR' ).</i>Please can you provide me an alternative for my requirement or correct me if i have done it wrong.
    Thanks,
    Suri

    I found it myself how to do it. The error says that it is not able to find the reference object i.e  it is asking us to refer to the table. The following piece of code will solve this problem. Have to implement this in WDDOMODIFYVIEW method of the view. This thing works comrades enjoy...

    Code some like this in the WDDOINIT method of your view which defines the ALV component as used component.
    instansiate the ALV component
    data lo_cmp_usage type ref to if_wd_component_usage.
    lo_cmp_usage = wd_this->wd_cpuse_usage_alv().
    if lo_cmp_usage->has_active_component() is initial.
       lo_cmp_usage->create_component().
    endif.
    data lo_interfacecontroller type ref to iwci_salv_wd_table.
    lo_interfacecontroller = wd_this->wd_cpifc_usage_alv().
    data lo_value type ref to cl_salv_wd_config_table.
    lo_value = lo_interfacecontroller->get_model().
    hide the grid lines
    lo_value->if_salv_wd_table_settings~SET_GRID_MODE( value = '01' ).

          // Handle event
          public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
            System.out.println(Integer.parseInt(jtfColumnSize.getText()));
            jtfUserText.setColumns(Integer.parseInt(jtfColumnSize.getText()));
            jpText.revalidate();
        });This will tell the jpText JPanel's layout manager to relayout the components that this JPanel holds. It should resize your JTextField. Note that in order to call this from within the anonymous inner ActionListener jpText will need to be declared "final". Either that or declared as a class field.

  • How to set the column order of a sealed column in a custom Content Type for the new item form NewDocSet.aspx?

    Dear SharePoint Developers,
    Please help.
    I need to know How to set the column order of a sealed column in a custom Content Type for the new item form NewDocSet.aspx?
    I think this is a "sealed column", whatever that is, which is  shown in SPD 2013 as a column of content type "document, folder, MyCustomContentType".
    I know when I set the column order in my custom Content Type settings page, it is correct.
    But, when I load the NewDocSet.aspx page, the column order that I set in the settings page is NOT used for this "sealed column" which is bad.
    Can you help?
    Please advise.
    Thanks.
    Mark Kamoski
    -- Mark Kamoski

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to set the column order of a sealed column in a custom Content Type for the new item form NewDocSet.aspx.
    Per my knowledge, if you have Content Type management enabled for the list or library (if you see a list of content type with the option to add more), the display order of columns is set for each content type.
    Drill down into one of them and you'll see the option under the list of columns for that content type.
    To apply the column order in the NewDocSet.aspx page, you need to:
    Select Site Settings, under Site Collection Administration, click Content type publishing. In the Refresh All Published
    Content Types section, choose Refresh all published content types on next
    update.
    Run two timer jobs(Content Type Hub, Content Type Subscriber) in central admin(Central Administration--> Monitoring--> Review timer jobs).

  • Set the column name of a table in a list box

    is there any code to set the column name of a table in a list box at oracle devloper 6i?
    pls help.

    I dont want to go for pl/sql . It should work any table.You want Dynamic SQL without using PL/SQL? Tricky. I'm sure there's a possible way using some very complex and convoluted XML functionality of SQL but in reality you are asking for something that isn't natural to SQL queries, especially if you are expecting a dynamic number of columns to be produced for each row of data. SQL expects a table structure, including output formats, to be a defined number of columns with any number of rows, not a defined number of rows with any number of columns.
    Perhaps if you explain why you need this sort of functionality then we may be able to offer a better solution.

  • How do I set the column content to automatic break lines

    Hello Guys,
    I have a problem with the column width and the column content of a standard report. Within the report are hugh entries which aren't interrupted by an space character. I set my column width to a special value by usingen "css style: display block; width: 300px;". Now the problem is that some of the column entries have a longer width than the column width is setted. So they overlock the entries of the column next to them.
    My question is: How do I set the column content to automatic break lines after a certain count of characters?
    After researching a couple of websites and discussion thread I found maybe a reference to the solution. I hope it help you to give me an answer.
    COLUMN LAST_NAME FORMAT A4
    regards
    wderr

    Wderr,
    PDFs are another animal entirely. Try adjusting the width of the column under the Print Attributes tab of the report.
    If that doesn't work you'll probably need to create custom XSL-FO layouts which, depending on the tools you have at your disposal, could take some time.

  • New to portal: Setting the column width in portal QBE report

    I'm trying to set different widths to different columns in the QBE report. One of the columns in the report contains long descriptive text. With the default column width the reports runs into many pages and user has to scroll a lot. I would like to set the column width for this column so that it does not wrap for every 2/3 words. In the customization tab, I'm setting the width type to "Char" and selecting the number of characters to be displayed in that coulmn. Percent/pixel width type also didn't help. Should I set the Header width also?. I'm not sure where to set this header column width.QBE report just ignores these customization parameters and displays the report in default format. Please let me know if you have any idea/solution to this problem.
