I created program which will be useful for modify the custom table entries.In this UI,,we can save new entries ,Delete and change. while giving new entries,screen is not tsking length which i provided in tables.It is taking only 130 charactor length instead of taking 200 ...i have used grid and dynamic internal table in this program...i am not understanding y it is taking like this.

i have used fm for field catalog...Plz let me know how to rectify this problem...

Hi Mohan,

While builiding Field catalog, pass 'REF_FIELD' and "REF_TABLE' also.

If 'REF_FIELD' and "REF_TABLE' is passed, all characteristics(Length,Type) of database field are inherited to internal table field.

Ex:

Data: l_r_fieldcat type lvc_s_fcat,
         l_t_fieldcat type lvc_t_fcat.

  l_r_fieldcat-ref_field = 'MATNR'.   " Table
  l_r_fieldcat-ref_table = 'MARA'.   " Field name
  append l_r_fieldcat to l_t_fieldcat.
  clear l_r_fieldcat.

For field catalog ,,i am using LVC_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE.......i dont think it will give problem.......

Hi Mohan,

Since u are using 'LVC_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE', no need for that. But check whether internal table field names and Dictionary Table field names are same. It should be same. If not change it.

Thanks,
