You probably mean that you want to copy the whole column in the clipboard, in one click or one key press.

You can't.

Instead, use some workarounds based on the situation.

In the case of SE11, those data elements come from the table DD03L, column ROLLNAME.

So, use transaction code SE16, make sure your user options are set on ALV grid display, select the table DD03L, filter on TABNAME = 'VBAK'; then

  • either use CTRL+Y and drag to select all lines, and CTRL+C to copy to the clipboard. Note that you may need to first scroll vertically to load all of the rows on the frontend.
  • or export to Excel
