Password entries in ALV

[Former Member]

Hi,

i'm using an ALV list with 2 columns, like:

 
field       | value
---------------------------
name        | Tom
password    | secret
address     | Downtown

The values in the second columns are editable.

So far so good but now i would like to have a *-entry password field.

Every entry in this password field should be displayed at input time as *.

e.g.

 
field       | value
---------------------------
name        | Tom
password    | ***********
address     | Downtown

Any suggestions? I would say it is impossible

Thx Marek

Hi Mark,

In you ALV grid give the field properties as * entries for the that particular field, this is one way i knew it.

Hi Marek ,

I think it's not possible too .

But i do have a workaround suggestion for you ,

you can make the cell respond to a db click event and pop up a screen to the user and in it put a tiny selection screen and in it

LOOP AT SCREEN .

IF SCREEN-NAME EQ 'your field' .

SCREEN-INVISIBLE = '1' .

MODIFY SCREEN .

ENDIF .

ENDLOOP .

That's what I would do ..

Good luck .
