Control ALV: Problem with Fieldcat buffer

Former Member — Fri, 01 Sep 2006 17:39:28 GMT

I have developed an ALV report using grid controls.

However when i change the fieldcatalog(moving coloumns order and so....) and run again i dont see the effect on the list. I tried logging off and in but still same problem. Also is passed below buffer parameters also.

What could be the issue with controls?

Any hint/ideas greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Raj, please make sure a layout variant is not being applied to the output either internally in the program or when the ALV is display. Check layout manangement for any "Default" layouts. This could be your problem.

Ah ha!!!!! I knew it. I have seen this a couple times before and it always comes down to a default variant faking you out. I remember this because, I had this same problem, it took me 2 days and countless head-->wall sessions before it clicked.

Glad it worked out for ya.

I just wanna let everyone know that <b>today</b> i suffered the same and exactly issue like in this entry. It was really causing me to bang my head -> wall like Rich....

I couldn't see my result after i insert a new column and move a column...

yeah, guys out there, when you move your ALV fieldcat... make sure you check your layout management tooo...

otherwise you go around the world to look what's going on!....

phew... thanks to this post... oh god!
