Hi All,

Is there a way to search for a string in all Z tables?

The String i am searching is '0268' which is a profit center.

I tried to use a program TABLE_SCANNER, but it is dumping with error "Control Framework: Fatal error - GUI cannot be reached".

Regards,

Robin

Hi Robin,

with regards to this problem I recommend to open a ticket for SAP.

Best regards,

Andreas

Sounds like executed in background and tried to display on a screen....try in foreground, if this is the case.

This could turn out to be an interesting and challenging exercise.

As Breakpoint has pointed out, if you can restict the selection criteria, you may be able to run it in the foreground.

But if it continues to dumo, you have to realize that this is producing an ALV grid report uxing a splitter container which can only be run in the foreground because it needs the GUI. But you can make a Z copy of the program and change it to use a docking container rather than a splitter container.

About a month ago, I saw something in SCN that gave an example of this.
