copying ALV cell content into to clipboard

[Prajesh]

Hi All,

I am displaying certain results in a ALV grid control. Now I want to enable this ALV grid in suh a way that enduser should be able to copy and paste the content of a cell just by using the key combination CTRLC and CTRLV. But currenlty what is happening is when I point the cursor on a partcular cell and do CTRLC entire row is copied instead of that particulr cell. So could you please tell me how to solve this in more userfriendly way. That means user should be able to do copy and pasting of a cell content with the standard key combination ctrlc and ctrl+v

Regrds,

Try pressing CTRL+Y before selecting the cells you want to copy.

This works in a lot of reports.

Hello Andrew and Rup,

Thanks a lot for your reply. The thing I want to achieve is to avoid that ctrly step. As I mentioned earlier user should be able to do the copy and paste by the key combination ctrlc and ctrl+v. For exmple if you try to do this in CRM standard UI it works. I don't know what property need to be set for this. I mean how programmaticaly I can achieve this?
