When ever we would like to display the heading of that field it will refer to its Data Element for its label. If you see in ALV reporting you can refer any of the above lables while populating standard ALV function modules' strucutres. If you do not fill them, you may not get the heading of the field.</P><P></P><P>If not undertood please let me know.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 01 Aug 2008 19:29:02 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/field-label/m-p/4265154#M1017695 Former Member 2008-08-01T19:29:02Z Re: field label https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/field-label/m-p/4265155#M1017696 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>1.
