ALV Print Problem. ABAP Dump.

[Former Member]

When I try to print a new ALV report I have created usig the print from the ALV grid toolbar. I receive an ABAP dump: OBJECTS_NOT_CHARLIKE..

I have searched OSS and come up with note 638232. Not sure if this will fix my problem however since it seems to indicate a fix for specific ASP rpeorts although sounds like my problem

Has anyone had this problem?

Hi,

i think you can fix this using the Fieldcatalog.if you don't pass the parameters properly then it will give dump,so try to give your full fieldcat info, how you are creating and internal table fields and declaration.

Hi,

are you delaing with ALV LVC fm or OO ABAP(i mean Cl_GUI_ALV_GRID class).

Please let me know.

By the way why are you using the double quotes for ref_table.not only here so many places you have used.

<b>is_fieldcat-ref_table = "EQUI".</b>

change that to

is_fieldcat-ref_table = 'EQUI'. "similarly for others.

Hi,

i made some changes now just use this and see.

i assume it_final is the table which you are passing to set display method. if it is not then change it to your itab,replace with your internal table.

  L_POS = L_POS + 1.

I am using Cl_GUI_ALV_GRID class.

Was not aware that the double quotes were a problem.

I could not get this working via your suggestion so I came up with a work around which was to disable the printing option for now until I have time to investigate, apply and test the OSS note.

regards BAR

Another possible reason is that you have defined special fields like color or checkbox in the layout but those fields are not part of the internal table displayed.

This is what happened to me after copying and modifying an ALV report. The grid display was not effected but when printing (internal transfer to ALV_LIST_DISPLAY) it came to a dump. - just a hint, don't know if it helps.
