hi Jay,

it is not fully clear for me, but if you want to modify the definition of the internal table (i.e. the internal table would have only 4 coloumns), that is not possible during runtime.

hope this helps

Hi Jay,

You actually cannot "delete" an internal table column, rather you delete the internal table row.

To delete an internal table column, would mean removing the column from the internal table declaration.

If you mean deleting the internal table row if one of the columns viz. field5 is blank, then code the following:


DELETE itab WHERE field5 IS INITIAL.

This will delete all records from internal table itab where the field5 (column) values are initial.

Cheers,

Aditya

Hi,

what u do is first declare a new structure with the fileds (4) u want and then write like this.


loop at itab_old.

   itab_new-f1 = itab_old-f1.
itab_new-f2 = itab_old-f2.
itab_new-f3 = itab_old-f3.
itab_new-f4 = itab_old-f4.

append itab_new.

endloop.

Jay,

Try using the static method CL_ALV_TABLE_CREATE=>CREATE_DYNAMIC_TABLE to create a dynamic table

Eg: 


CALL METHOD CL_ALV_TABLE_CREATE=>CREATE_DYNAMIC_TABLE
EXPORTING
IT_FIELDCATALOG = it_fieldcat
IMPORTING
EP_TABLE = dy_tbl.

Hi,

If you mean removing the column from ALV display, change the field catalog that is

being passed.

Pass NO_OUT = 'X'. By doing this, it will be available for selection in the "Change Layout", but will not be displayed initially.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Balaji

Hi Jay,

Create a work area (WA) similar to the itab then read one row from itab into WA and check individual components of the wa if it is INITIAL.

now you can filterout field1 ,field2,field3,field4 as NON INITIAL.

Use RTTC of RTTI functionality for creaztion of the eork area WA-2 for the above four fields.

and from WA-2 you can create an itab.

I have not tested this before posting. Hope its helpful.

Regds,

Gaurav
