Hi,

Custom container is used to hold the grid which in turn will be used for report output display in alv format.

For custom container,you need place the container on the screen and then should create object for custom container,ALV grid.

You can display alv output without using custom container by making use of docking contianer.For that,there is no need to place anything in screen.Create an object for docking contianer and then for ALV grid.

hi senthil,

Use the SAP Custom Container to build a control into an area on a screen or subscreen. You define the area occupied by the control in the Screen Painter.

The default size of the control that you place in the Custom Container is the same as that of the container itself.

Before you can include a control in a Custom Container, you must define the area that the container will occupy. You do this in the Screen Painter. For further information, refer to Creating a Custom Control.

u can create ALV without using container by Fm " Reuse_alv_grid_display" and

" Reuse_alv_list_display".

Custom control is used in oops alv and is needed for placing a control on the screen.

U can implement without using custom control with the help of FM 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'.
