field name problem in oops

[Former Member]

hi friends,

i am working on a lav list display program and im using the class cl_salv_table to display my itab

now i have given specific field heading to certain fields

DATA: lr_columns TYPE REF TO cl_salv_columns,

lo_columns TYPE REF TO cl_salv_columns_table,

lo_column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_column.

lr_columns = alv->get_columns( ).

lo_columns = alv->get_columns( ).

lo_column = lo_columns->get_column( 'SETS' ).

lo_column->set_technical( '' ).

lo_column->set_medium_text( 'sets shipped' ).

my problem is for column SETS i cant give short text since 'sets shipped' doesnt fit in,also if i use medium text that is not reflected in the output until i stretch the column.

wat do to 2 get the heading without strecthing the column

Hi Amit,

Just add the following line in your code.

lr_columns->set_optimize( if_salv_c_bool_sap=>true ).

hope it will help you.

Hi Amit,

ok means you want the default size of column..then remove this line from you code...

Not exactly sure what you are reaching for here, but you can set the column width to what ever you want.

DATA: lr_columns TYPE REF TO cl_salv_columns,
lo_columns TYPE REF TO cl_salv_columns_table,
lo_column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_column.

lr_columns = alv->get_columns( ). 
lo_columns = alv->get_columns( ).
lo_column = lo_columns->get_column( 'SETS' ).
lo_column->set_technical( '' ).
lo_column->set_short_text( 'Sets Shp').
lo_column->set_medium_text( 'Sets Shipped' ).
lo_column->set_long_text( 'Sets Shipped' ).
lo_column->set_output_length( '15' ).

hello sir,

i will tell u wat exactly my problem is, in my internal i have field called

sets type mseg menge

now i have use lo_column->set_medium_text( 'Sets Shipped' ).

i cant use short text bcoz Sets Shipped doesnt fit in.

but wen i run the report the heading for my column is "Quanity" ( which is for mseg-menge),only wen i increase the width of the column i can see Sets Shipped.

i also tried lo_column->set_output_length( '15' ) but even after doing the heading remains "Quantity".

i have also used lo_column->set_technical( '' ).
