Problem While Downloading,

Former Member — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 04:23:47 GMT

Hi all,

I am displaying the output of my report in ALV format.

The user is downloading the report into EXCEL by using the download option available on the application toolbar of ALV. While downloading it into a spreadsheet, everything is coming fine but only the Unit of measurement field is appearing as *****.

This field has been taken from VBRP table filed VRKME.

How do i get rid of this problem.

Increase the output length of Unit of Measurement field (VRKME) in the field catalog to at least 3 characters.

Hi,

Check in debugging before downloading whether the value is apperaing properly.If it is, then try enlarging the column in excel.May be the length is not sufficient for display.

Hi Rohitaash...

Actual value is stored in the file... that is just the display.Since field column doesn't have enough space to show it in full... so it shows it in junk chars...

I faced this prob for date fields..

When u expand the column width, it will show u the exact value...
