Dynamically hiding Table Control Column?

[Former Member]

Hi,

How can one dynamically hide a column of a given table control? Say youhave a three-column table and at run time you only want to show columns1 and 3. How do you hide column 2 programmatically?

Hi Pranshu,

we can disable the column by making it display only

Now assume the name of your table control is ZTABLECONT..double click on the screen painter on the table control..these 2 names must be the same....

if you need to disable columns of table control as a part of user action..like say click of a button..it can be entered in PAI by checking the sy-ucomm

data declaration:

data : cols like line of ZTABLECONT-cols.

Case sy-ucomm.

when 'PUSH'.

loop at ZTABLECONT-cols into cols.

if cols-screen-input = '1'.

cols-screen-input = '0'.

endif.

modify ZTABLECONT-cols from cols index sy-tabix.

endloop.

endcase.

This will disable all the columns

for a particular column do the following

For this imagine you have 5 columns

in the below code

index = 1 => column 1

index = 2 => column 2

index = 3 => column 3

index = 4 => column 4

index = 5 => column 5

in the below code , only column2 will be disabled....

so whicever column you want to disable ..just give the index

for multiple disabling..just write the code accordingly

LOOP AT ZTABLECONT-cols INTO cols WHERE index = 2.

IF cols-screen-input = '1'.

cols-screen-input = '0'.

ENDIF.

MODIFY ZTABLECONT-cols FROM cols INDEX sy-tabix.

ENDLOOP.

Pls check and revert...the code works and is being used in active code and close the thread if issue is solved

loop at screen.
  if screen-name = 'SCREEN_FIELD2'.  " Column 2
    screen-active = 0.
    modify screen.
  endif.
endloop.

This set of statements should be incluced in the PBO of the table control loop module...

Hi Gopi,

I think you have not read the query properly , it is about hiding a column in table control not on screen

Loop at screen will never work on table control.

so , did u mean that u dont have a screen for a table control,

if so how did u place ur table control. and where?

Generally a table control is placed on a screen.

see the below examples

DEMO_DYNPRO_TABCONT_LOOP

DEMO_DYNPRO_TABCONT_LOOP_AT

PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
  MODULE STATUS_0100.
  LOOP WITH CONTROL FLIGHTS. " assuming FLIGHTS is the table control name.
    MODULE FILL_TABLE_CONTROL.
  ENDLOOP.

Now in the module fill_table_Control , you should be writing the code which i mentioned in my above post.

Hi,

put an 'X' in the no_out field of the field catalog of your alv for each column that you want hidden. do this on the PBO module of your program.
