ALV Grid

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am developing a ALV based on ABAP Objects.

I have got struck on few things. I need ur advice!!!

Questions:

1. When the program displays the ALV, there is a GAP between the Application Tool Bar and the Grid. How do i remove the Gap

2. Inside the Grid, the Background Color has to be BLUE in Color(in general). But for me, it is displaying as a Normal SAP Screen Color(Light Brown). How do I make the Backround to be in light Blue in color.

3. Is there is anyway of Displaying the GRID directly below (the remaining Screen portion beneth the Application Tool Bar) ???.

Thanks in Advance,

Kam

1) You must move the custom container to the very top line of the screen, if that is not good enough, then you could also bring the ALV_GRID in a docking container which might be better for ya.

2) You will have to color each line.

3) See number one.

Hi Kam,

As far as my knowledge goes we can color one Row/one Column/Each Cell in ALV Grid...no idea about background coloring.

If one of them is what you are looking at then solution is simple.

let me know .

Soujash,

I think, you are refering to use of ZEBRA option.

This option brings the Background of Odd or Even Rows in Blue Color.

But my requirement is to have all the rows with Blue Color bgd!!

Many Thanks

Here is a sample program for ALV in a docking container and coloring the lines blue.

Rich/All,

Thanks for the color issue. I will check this out later. Because i have been asked to concentarate on other HIGH Priority works in the same program.

New Problem:

The tool bar displays at the top of the Container.

SAP gives some Buttons/tools on this Tool Bar.

Question:

How do i remove some Buttons(Change Layout, Excel Emdedding Etc) from this Tool Bar????

My Understanding:

SET PF-STATUS excluding itab.

I have tried with this option . It is able to remove buttons placed in the Apllication Tool Bar.

<b>But we have remove buttons present in the Tool Bar seen at the top of the Container!!!!</b>

I am waiting for the help..

Thanks

Kam

Hi kam,

check this....

       lt_f4 type lvc_t_f4 with header line.

  perform exclude_tb_functions changing lt_exclude.

Sure, you can do it this way.

data: <b>lt_exclude type ui_functions,</b>
        lt_f4 type lvc_t_f4 with header line.

  create object g_grid
         exporting i_parent = g_docking.

* Build fieldcat and set column WUNIT
* edit enabled. Assign a handle for the dropdown listbox.
  perform build_fieldcat changing pt_fieldcat.

* Optionally restrict generic functions to 'change only'.
*   (The user shall not be able to add new lines).
<b>  perform exclude_tb_functions changing lt_exclude.</b>

* Define a drop down table.
  perform set_drdn_table.

  select * from sbook into table pt_outtab up to g_max rows.
                                                         if sy-subrc ne 0.
* generate own entries if database table is empty
    perform generate_entries changing pt_outtab.
  endif.

  call method g_grid->set_table_for_first_display
       <b>exporting it_toolbar_excluding  = lt_exclude</b>
       changing  it_fieldcatalog       = pt_fieldcat
                 it_outtab             = pt_outtab.

endform.

The values like mc_fc_loc_copy_row can be found in the attributes tab of the class in SE24. There you can find the specific ones that you want to exclude.

Rich/Venu,

Thanks for the Help.

I am now able to remove some buttons on the ALV grid.

Now the other case . I have to add <b>Export to Excel</b> option in the ALV.

Is it possible???

Thanks

Kam

[Former Member]

Hi Kam,

By default the button should be there in alv toolbar , to download data in excel format(icon is a book with yellow horizontal arrow).

click and select spreadsheet

[RichHeilman]

Yes, there is a icon for download to excel, don't exclude that one, then you will have the functionality.
