pushbutton in alv column

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have to create an ALV(not using OO) with a pushbutton column. The requirement is as follows: the grid contains a text column. When the text contains more than 100 characters, a column with a pushbutton (named: More...) is selected by the user to view the rest of the text description. Scrolling within the text column is not desired.

Can someone tell me how to define the column as a pushbutton. How about how to disable the pushbutton for the row, when the text is less than 100 characters? I am thinking that I can handled the event in the user_command area of the ALV.

Can this be done?

Hi

You can show a field as ICON (it menages it in catalog table) and assign the HOTSPOT option to it.

In this way the field should behave itself like a push button.

As soon as you know the row you can decide which action has to be done: to show or not to show the rest of text:

you can do it activing the event HOTSPOT_CLICK.
