Hi All

Is it possible to put trafic ligth indicator against each record in table control. I need to display green, red and orange indicator depending upon the status of the record.

Thanks

Use another field in table control which will display ICON_GREEN_LIGHT/ICON_YELLOW_LIGHT/ICON_RED_LIGHT based on the condition. You need to set the relavant ICON.

I do this quite often. All you need to do is write it to the field.

type-pools: icon.

if condition.

write ICON_GREEN_LIGHT as ICON to itab-status.

endif.

Make sure that ITAB-STATUS is character field length 4.

Try:

* Icons
TYPE-POOLS: icon.
DATA: balance_icon(132). 

call function 'ICON_CREATE'              
     exporting                           
          name   = icon_green_light      
          info   = 'OK Result'
     importing                           
          result = balance_icon.

Hi Ravindra,

In your internal table you need to create a field and populate these values for the desired traffic light indicator.

@0A@ - Red light

@08@ - Green light

@09@ - Yellow light

Hope this helps.

In the screen painter, use the "status icon" element in your table control. Its the last element on the left hand side with an "X" and check mark in it. Use this. Make sure that it is defined as char with a length of at less 4. That's it.
