Copy & Paste to ALV Table

[Former Member]

Dear colleages,

is it possible to enter mass data into an ALV grid (or any other GUI control) by copy & paste? By "mass data" I mean 20 columns and 500 rows, i.e. much more lines than visible on the screen.

Sorry it sounds silly, but I have a use case where the customer asks for it.

In the table controls I know you cannot paste more rows than visible. In a select-options dialog it is possible, but there we only deal with 1 column.

Thanks a lot for your help,

Gerrit

you can try with fm clbp_import and then adding the data to the itab and displaying.

Just copy the data, then trigger this fm by clicking a button and do it.

Ctrl+v will not help to paste the content in the area which is not visible.

Well, if it makes more people aware of our desparate situation, we're thankful Maybe we should simply stop copying & pasting and do more serious stuff

Cheers!
