It is not possible first you will have to populate the internal table from any SAP or Z table then calculate the Number of rows and pass the internal table to the table control.

Without populating the data how can you count the no of rows in the internal table. Do you not think it is illogical to count the no of rows in any internal table without populating it.

HI,

On any user action(say enter) on the screen PAI of that screen ll be triggered......so u can include a module say 'count' in the PAI of ur screen and write the code(describe........) inside it.....

Cheers,

You are passing any internal table to the table control and displaying it.

Put DESCRIBE command on that internal table and you can check the no of rows in the table control.

Hi,

Usually for table controls,we have limit the lines of table control in the PBO itself.

ie, Descirbe table <itab> lines <tblctrl>-lines.

In your case , if you require no of lines of tblctrl,

take the number of lines of tblctrl in the PAI.

ie,

line = <tblctrl>-lines.

tblctrl = Table control name,

itab = internal table used for populating data in table control

line = variable of type i.
