Hi,

in background you didn't have gui .. so you can't control it

did you try to display an ALV Grid or Tree in background. Instead of a custom container try to use a docking container

Hi,

The OO report you are referring would be using a screen...

the container requires a connection to the frontend which cannot be reached in background.

There is a solution with docking container given by peter in the clog below have alook.

Because there is no active GUI when you are running in background.

All GUI functions make use of the presentation server when executing which is not available when you run a program in background.

However, there are alternatives for most of the GUI functions to perform the same task in background.

For example, if instead of GUI_UPLOAD/GUI_DOWNLOAD functions, you can use OPEN/READ/WRITE/CLOSE dataset statement to perform the same function.
