Hi Johnn,

• I_CONSISTENCY_CHECK =

I_STRUCTURE_NAME = 'gt_STRUCT'

• IS_VARIANT = GS_LAYOUT

I_SAVE = X_SAVE

I_DEFAULT = LV_DEF

• IS_LAYOUT = GS_LAYOUT

• IS_PRINT =

• IT_SPECIAL_GROUPS =

• IT_TOOLBAR_EXCLUDING =

• IT_HYPERLINK =

• IT_ALV_GRAPHICS =

• IT_EXCEPT_QINFO =

• IR_SALV_ADAPTER =

CHANGING

IT_OUTTAB = GT_BPSTAB[]

IT_FIELDCATALOG = GT_FIELDCATALOG[]

• IT_SORT =

• IT_FILTER =

EXCEPTIONS

INVALID_PARAMETER_COMBINATION = 1

PROGRAM_ERROR = 2

TOO_MANY_LINES = 3

OTHERS = 4

.

Hi,

In the SLIS_LAYOUT_ALV, there is a property called COLWIDTH_OPTIMIZE.

Set his property as COLWIDTH_OPTIMIZE = 'X'.

Automatically your column width will get reduced.

I cannot assign like this....

gt_fieldcatalog is a table without header line.

i declared it like this

Data : GT_FIELDCATALOG TYPE LVC_T_FCAT.

Hi john

use like this

DATA: I_FCAT TYPE SLIS_T_FIELDCAT_ALV,

WA_FCAT LIKE LINE OF I_FCAT.

READ TABLE I_FCAT INTO WA_FCAT WITH KEY FIELDNAME = 'NDAYS'.

IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.

WA_FCAT-REPTEXT_DDIC = 'X'.

WA_FCAT-SELTEXT_S = TEXT-007.

WA_FCAT-SELTEXT_M = TEXT-007.

WA_FCAT-SELTEXT_L = TEXT-007.

WA_FCAT-OUTPUTLEN = 12.

WA_FCAT-JUST = 'L'.

MODIFY I_FCAT FROM WA_FCAT INDEX SY-TABIX.

CLEAR WA_FCAT.

ENDIF.

so change the length here ..

declate fcat like above...it will work

Hi John

You have to Read for every field and fill the catalog.

do same for all the columns you require.

Awards points if useful.

[Former Member]

Hi Johnn,

You can set the parameter CWIDTH_OPT in the structure for layout (LVC_S_LAYO - Passed in the method against IS_LAYOUT under EXPORTING) as 'X' and the column width will get adjusted automatically.

If you want to set the column width for each of the columns you can do so at the time of populating the Field Catalog with the parameter OUTPUTLEN.
