Hello,

I have created one editable ALV grid to capture user input. But I want to restrict user to enter value in a cell in a particular pattern. For example in a cell I wamt to restrict user to enter value as '215.6'  or '0541.7'  . It means user has to enter 3 digit before decical and one digit after decimal. In other programming language such as Visual Basic it is possible by setting mask as '###.#' in input . But I do not know whether same is possible in ALV or not.   Please help.

Hi PK,

I guess this might not be possible in the exact way you want ie the user the can enter only ###.#

but u can always put validations with appropriate messages and allow the user to proceed only if the value entered is in desired format.

Thanks
