I_FIELDCAT1-FIELDNAME = 'NTGEW'.

I_FIELDCAT1-SELTEXT_M = 'NET WEIGHT'.

I_FIELDCAT1-DO_SUM = 'X'.

APPEND I_FIELDCAT1 TO I_FIELDCAT1.

hi,

Once put break point near the appending of field catalogue and cheak whether the dta is getting appended correctly in fieldcat internal table..

It should work properly..

rewards if so,
