What means "but in alv report method is blank"?

NB: there shouldn't be any difference in processing the ALV Grid, whatever the function is started from the ALV Grid toolbar or from the menu or the application toolbar (remember that in the latter case, the ALV Grid control is to be stored in a global variable so that to be able to interact with it).

Did you check out the test report BCALV_GRID_05 "Add a Self-Defined Button to the Toolbar", I think it does exactly what you need. I assume you have set up the event-handling appropriatly?

Logic from the report BCALV_GRID_05:

adds a button "Detail" with function/user-command "BOOKINGS" to the ALV Toolbar
method handle_user_command within the calling programm is registered for the event user_command from the ALV-Grid
When event user_command is triggered within ALV-Grid, the method handle_user_command is called and the programm checks for the user-command "BOOKINGS"
the selected rows are read (get_selected_rows) and displayed in another ALV-Grid (Pop-up)

If you go by that Demo-Report, you should get your problem solved. Otherwise, please be more specific with your issue.

Hi Experts,

Thanks for your reply issue was in my program, in method handle_change_finish FOR EVENT data_changed_finished my screen was getting refreshed, so i was not able to get the information from GET_SELECTED_ROW method.

Thanks.
