ALV using SALV classes problem

Former Member — Fri, 21 Feb 2014 08:36:55 GMT

Hi ABAP gurus,

I am in need of help, I have create my ALV using SALV classes which works fine.

But when i want to export to Excel by clicking Microsoft Excel button(Ctrl+Shift+F7) on the PF-Status, it will call Excel in SAP, The header title doesnt appear unlike traditional REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY. Am I missing any steps? I do not want to change all my code back to using the FM style.

My header already appeared in top of page, but it is missing in excel. Appreciate your help here.

My example code for top of page:

lo_h_label = lo_header->create_label( row = 1 column = 1 text = gv_title ).
lo_header->create_header_information( row = 1 column = 1 text = gv_title ).
lo_h_label->set_text( gv_title ).

lo_alv->set_top_of_list( lo_header ).
lo_alv->set_top_of_list_print( lo_header ).

Many thanks!

Hi Jozef,

I'm using the direct export. It will prompt for macro enable. I think this sample code is having the same problem:

Try clicking the excel button and the macro enabled excel will populate the excel, but with no title header. It is possible to do it using the FM way.

Thanks!

Good afternoon.

You can ask for an example of how you have organized code in Excel Inplace? I use CL_GUI_ALV_GRID, and deduce the TOP-OF-PAGE and ALV. When push Excel Inplace do not see HEADER, it is not filled to Excel, visible only the data
