How to display multple line text in a single cell in ALV?

Former Member

Hi all,

I have 'Material Detailed Description' field in my ALV report, and it's taken from a multiple line text table. Is there any way so I can get this whole text to fit in a single ALV cell (not in single, but multiple line, as in original text data)?

Thank you.

Hi

If you want you can display this long text field in ALV but the allignment of the ALV not looks good. so generally we won't display them in the output,

instead, in the interactive list write the code to call that MM03 transaction, and the user can see that text in the transaction when ever double clicked on that MATERIAL field.

I don't think You can do that in a single cell.

if you text is so long then you have to use a container and then show the long text

using the class CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT.
