Classical ALV: Disable DELETE key on Keyboard in Grid

By | October 18, 2008 | Classical ALV | 7,807 | 0

Catch the event generated by DELETE-key on Keyboard & disable it in editable ALV generated using FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

We have seen in the previous post how to Disable the DELETE-key in the keyboard in the editable ALV using the OO ALV class CL_GUI_ALV_GRID. Today, we will see how we can implement the same functionality using the classical ALV generated using the function module REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY.

As discussed in the previous post, to implement this we need to implement the DATA_CHANGED and the DATA_CHANGED_FINISHED event. The hurdle here is, we don’t have a event similar to DATA_CHANGED_FINISHED in OOALV in the Classical FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY ALV.

Whenever we generate an ALV with the FM REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY, it internally creates a object reference fo the CL_GUI_ALV_GRID. We will get that object in our program to overcome the hurdle of not having the DATA_CHANGED_FINISHED event. We will get the OO ALV object from this ALV using the FM GET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR. We will implement the event handler class for that ALV object.

Here I am giving the full example code snippet to implement this functionality.
