a better way to do this is to read the info from your selection screen and display that.

If you use the OO ALV than you have to use the method GET_FRONTEND_LAYOUT to get the Layout.

Like:

    call method gt_grid-grid->get_variant
      importing
        es_variant = es_variant.

If you use the classical ALV, than you have to get the Layout information from the ALV object created in the classical ALV.

Check out the solution of [Changing Subtotal in Classical ALV |http://help-abap.blogspot.com/2008/09/classical-alv-change-subtotal.html] on my professional blog. Instead of the Method to change the Subtotal, you have to use the method GET_VARIANT.

I think u r going to check whether a variant name is given in the selection screen or not. If it is then u need to check it's validity. If it is true then u can use the Fm REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_EXISTENCE to check the validity of the variant.
