Hide Column in table control

Former Member — Fri, 04 Jan 2008 08:03:09 GMT

Dear All,

I need to hide some columns of a table control during runtime. I have used the following code:

LOOP AT SCREEN.

if screen-group1 = 'AA'.

screen-active = 0

screen-invisible = 1.

modify screen.

endif.

ENDLOOP.

Thanks and regards,

Atanu

Have you assigned the screen-group in the screen attributes also for the column? please check that.

Also instead of using group , you can simple use scree-name = column1 and then screen-invisible = 1.

This should work

Please let me know.

Cheers

No Kiran,

The solution is not working. I have tried with screen-invisible combination also. But still not working.

Thanks and regards,

No shivika,

The solution is not still working. I have tried that. When we make screen-invisible = 1, column is not hiding instead ************ is coming as appears in password.

Thanks and regards,

Dear All,

The problem is solved. We have to change the property of column of table control, not the screen. There is a property called invisible in tabl1 control - col1 property. You will have to mark for that column as 1.

Thanks and regards,

Hi Atanu

I dont think this is a good solution. What if you want to display the colum for some condition. In that case you will have to modify it in the PBO.

What you have done will i think hide the column for all possible scenarios. If that is your requirement then this should solve your problem.

Thanks and Regards
