ALV Grid in Screen (using OO)

[Former Member]

Cheers everyone.

This is my first posting to the SDN.

I'm trying to display an ALV Grid (using OO) in a screen called with "Call screen 0200 startin at XX YY", to get a popup-style display. My Grid will not show. If i call the screen directly (full screen mode), there are no problems.

I was wondering if it was even possible to display this object in this kind of screen.

My screen is defined as a "normal" screen. I tried with a "modal dialog box" but same result.

This is a 4.6C environment. If anyone has had this problem and could shed some light on what i might be missing, I'd appreciate it.

Thank you.

Hello Jester,

Have a look at the demo program 'BCALV_GRID_AND_POPUP'.

I think that should help you.

Hi Jitendar.

I didn't think to look for a demo of this specific problem.

Thanks a lot.

I guess it was just the stucture of my program(timing of object creation) because i simply moved code around, and it now works.

I appreciate it.

(I hope i attributed the points correctly)

Sure, here is a generic function module that I recently did.

Create screen 200, set as normal screen, create custom control "ALV_CONTAINER" in the screen.

function z_popup_with_alvgrid.

Hi Jester,

So it has taken you about 5 months to make your first post? Just Kidding :-). Welcome to SDN and to this forum in particular. Hope you're gonna have some interesting/informative discussions here.

P.S. : It is sort of customary for the newbies to read <a href="/people/mark.finnern/blog/2004/08/10/spread-the-love blog</a>. Have you?

Hi Anand.

Yeah, i'm a "long time user, first time poster".

Thanks for the welcome.

I read your link, but i don't remember seing the "Reward Message" button next to a reply. I selected the radio button accordingly (problem solved), and i hope this accomplished the reward properly.

Thanks again.

Hi Jester,

Instead of using "Call screen" you can use class

cl_gui_dialogbox_container. This class is a popup container and you can pass it to the i_parent parameter of you ALV grid.

I used it in similar situation as you are describing.

There is a good example here:

Hope it helped you,

Eyal,

When the object go_toolbar is created, a return code of 1 is occurring. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

Thanks

Bruce
