Object type does not exist

Hi all,

         I was designing a grid and after the grid is displayed in the subscreen where i intend it to get displayed, i am getting a message  'Object type  does not exist'.(a status message).The message is coming from the FM  'DD_GET_NAMETAB'.I tried figure out what the error was but every thing was in vain.

Can you suggest reason for this.If there were an error in layout or fieldcatalaog it should have shown in different way.The display is proper and the data is correct.
The message occurs after set_table_for_first_display is executed and not inside it.this my last module in the screen.

The table being displayed consists of authority objects , program name and line number.at first i thought may be some checks are being performed..some of the authority objects may have not existed but shown in the table displayed.So i made all the fields in the output table as char40 fields.this ensures that no checks are performed(no Data Element so no checks)..but still the error occurs.I removed all the data and displayed the empty table in grid, no error this time.I could not figure out what is causing this..
