Error when using FM REUSE_ALV_GRID

stefan_kolev4 — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 12:52:08 GMT

Hi,

When I'm trying to display an ALV I am receiving an error as you can see below.

How can I solve the problem ?

The internal table "\FUNCTION=K_KKB_FIELDCAT_MERGE\DATA=L_ABAP_SOURCE[]" is 72

characters wide. The program line is

73 characters wide.

Thanks

Stefan

The error is famous one. If you are using the fieldcatalog merge function , you will get the error. if the source code line length exceeds 72 chars you get this error.

you can remove the error by changing the source code, see the code where the line size exceeds more than 72 chars, and reduce it to 72 or less.

ex:-

read table itab with key matnr = itab-matnr posnr = itab-posnr vbeln = itab-vbeln etc....

convert that to

read table itab with key matnr = itab-matnr
                             posnr = itab-posnr 
                             vbeln = itab-vbeln etc....

Hi,

Even I faced the same error.

Go to SE 38, open your program in change mode. Goto Menu UTILITIES>SETTINGS>ABAP EDITOR>EDITOR>

Check that you must be having old editor option button seleted. In the bottom of the same tab page you have a check box saying

Downward-Comp. Line length(72).

Just check that checkbox and come back to your code. Compile your program once again.

It should solve your problem.

Regards,

Mayank
