Hi chamarthiraju

Chk ur program once.

The width of the program(Including Comments) shuld not exceed 72 lines. If it exceeds it will gives u dump whenever u try to read a report into an internal table.

Also if u observe whenever u create any program the comment lines automatically generated by the system wont exceed length of 72.

Hi,

Each line inyour program should not be greater than 72..Refer to this link..

Is it an ALV report.

In ALV report , Tour program line should not exceed 72 characters.

That is in one line u can write 72 characters, if there are more characters in a line of code then take them to next line else ALV will throw a dump.

HI Vijeta,

Yes, I am facing this problem in ALV GRID. But, this DUMP is not coming for everytime. Some time i am geting O/P. Some times i am not getting.

I have Unchecked the Downwards-Comp. Line lentgh (72) Check Box.

Hi,

The Downwards-Comp. Line lentgh (72) Check Box should be unchecked. Infact it should be check or else the ALV sometimes give dump. So please re-check the Downwards-Comp. Line lentgh (72).
