How to display a fixed number of rows in a page when using CL_GUI_ALV_GRID?? lets say 500 ?? because my display table it may contain in some cases 10.000 and evidently I can t see all of them..

I have a button in my toolbar witch triggers this event

(display 500 records ) but I don t have the logic to do this only with methods of CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.

can you tell me a standard method of CL_GUI_ALV_GRID witch can help me do this?? any hint will be good..

Till now I was used to add a column to my structure witch represents a flag that is a number corresponding to every 500 records (a batch containing 500 records )

first 500 - flag -> 1

second 500 - flag -> 2

etc..but I m convinced that exists a way of doing this more easy..without damaging my structure..

thanx in advance..don t be shy..reply if you have any hints..

Hi,

if method SET_FILTER_CRITERIA doesn´t help, I think that you must work with 2 internal tables, a counter and a loop for filtering the records to be displayed:

case counter.

when 1.

loop at int_table1 from 1 to 500. "<-- your table with all records

move int_table1 to int_table2

endloop.

when 2.

loop at int_table1 from 501 to 1000.

move int_table1 to int_table2

endloop.

etc, etc.

Call grid-->SET_TABLE_FOR_FIRST_DISPLAY

exporting

IT_OUTTAB = int_table2 "<-- instead of your currently table int_table1

Thanx a lot..

indeed I have thoght of this and the counter It doesn t have to be flag into my structure....

I start from 0 and I increase or decrease the counter according to witch button from toolbar ( previos page or next page )

2 structure : 1 full table

1 fixed table of 500 records of the same type like the full table

But ..instead of case I can put like 2 variables v1 and v2 and loop into this variables like index..

thanx again..thery helpfull..
