ALV Tree open for editting/user input

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

Can we make an ALV Tree open for editting? In GRID, I know how to make it ( thru CALL METHOD gr_alvgrid->set_ready_for_input). I'm using CALL METHOD by the way in calling my ALV.

BUT for ALV tree can we also use this 'set_ready_for_input'? Please enlighten me. Your response is really expected and very much appreciated.

I found this in the SAP Help. Have a look and see if it helps.

Method : item_set_editable

Use this method to control whether the user can change a checkbox.

When you initialize the control, the parameter ITEM_SELECTION must be set to u2018Xu2019.

The item must be a checkbox (the field class in structure TREEV_ITEM must have

the value tree->item_class_checkbox).

CALL METHOD tree->item_set_editable

EXPORTING node_key = node_key

item_name = item_name

editable = editable

EXCEPTIONS failed = 1

node_not_found = 2

item_not_found = 3

cntl_system_error = 4

editable_not_supported = 5.

Parameters Description

node_key Node containing the item you want to make accept input.

The parameter is defined with reference to type tv_nodekey.

item_name Name of the item that you want to make accept input.

The parameter is defined with reference to type tv_itmname .

editable 'X': Checkbox can be changed.

' ': Checkbox cannot be changed.

Thanks,
