How to make a entire column editable in an ALV grid

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am trying to make a column editable in an ALV grid. For that I wrote the following code. In the below code I have set the 'edit' field of ls_fcat to 'X'. But Iam getting Runtime error. Can anyone help in resolving this problem or suggest any method to make a column editable in an ALV grid.

form prepare_fc changing go_fieldcat type lvc_t_fcat.

data: ls_fcat type lvc_s_fcat.

refresh: go_fieldcat.

clear: ls_fcat.

ls_fcat-reptext = ' Safety Stock Figures'.

ls_fcat-coltext = 'Safety Stock Figures'.

ls_fcat-fieldname = 'EISBE'.

ls_fcat-ref_table = 'IMAT'.

ls_fcat-edit = 'X'.

modify go_fieldcat from ls_fcat.

APPEND LS_FCAT TO GO_FIELDCAT.

endform.

Thanks & Regards,

ls_fcat-edit = 'X'.

is correct only.

have a look into this code

struct_grid_lset TYPE lvc_s_layo,

i_grid_fcat TYPE lvc_t_fcat

DATA ls_fcat TYPE lvc_s_fcat.

CLEAR ls_fcat.

ls_fcat-fieldname = 'MONTH'.

ls_fcat-ref_table = 'TYPE'.

ls_fcat-ref_field = 'C'.

<b> ls_fcat-edit = 'X'.</b>

ls_fcat-coltext = text-030."Month

ls_fcat-seltext = text-030.

APPEND ls_fcat TO p_i_grid_fcat.

CLEAR ls_fcat.

ls_fcat-fieldname = 'YEAR'.

ls_fcat-ref_table = 'TYPE'.

ls_fcat-ref_field = 'C'.

ls_fcat-coltext = text-031."Year

ls_fcat-seltext = text-031.

APPEND ls_fcat TO p_i_grid_fcat.

CALL METHOD o_grid->set_table_for_first_display

EXPORTING

i_bypassing_buffer = space

is_variant = ws_f_grid_disvar

i_save = ws_c_grid_save

is_layout = struct_grid_lset

CHANGING

it_outtab = i_grid_outs[]

<b>it_fieldcatalog = i_grid_fcat[]</b>

it_sort = i_sort_fcat. " Period

Also Check this code.Another way using field symbols.

i_fieldcat TYPE lvc_t_fcat,

w_layout TYPE lvc_s_layo ,

w_variant TYPE disvariant.

FIELD-SYMBOLS : <lfs_fieldcat> TYPE lvc_s_fcat.

*Default display

LOOP AT p_fieldcat ASSIGNING <lfs_fieldcat>.

CASE <lfs_fieldcat>-fieldname.

WHEN 'GL_ACCT'.

<lfs_fieldcat>-coltext = text-050.

<lfs_fieldcat>-no_out = ' '.

<lfs_fieldcat>-scrtext_l = text-050.

<b> <lfs_fieldcat>-edit = 'X'.</b>

WHEN OTHERS.

ENDCASE.

ENDLOOP.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Indeed you are modifying the internal table go_fieldcat with ls_fcat wherein in the first step you have refreshed the table. so the statement gets failed and raises a dump.

so do change your code to append the same or check before whether it has an entry adn then modify.

Hi,

Try the following.

data i_fieldcat TYPE lvc_t_fcat.

Field-symbols: <lfs_fieldcat> TYPE lvc_s_fcat.

LOOP AT i_fieldcat ASSIGNING <lfs_fieldcat>.

CASE <lfs_fieldcat>-fieldname.

WHEN 'EISBE'.

....

<lfs_fieldcat>-edit = 'X'.

...

ENDCASE.

ENDLOOP.
