When you create a list, the current write position
(system field SY-COLNO , see
WRITE ) is set as the left boundary of
the movable area. When this list page is displayed on the screen, you
can scroll horizontally with the scrollbar only from this list column -
all list column to the left of this are fixed at the left edge.
Addition
... COLUMN col
Effect
Sets the column col as the left boundary of the
movable area.
Note
The last value set by SET SCROLL-BOUNDARY affects
the entire page display and must be reset for each list page (usually
in the event TOP-OF-PAGE ) - although it can be different for
each list page.
The NEW-LINE NO-SCROLLING statement
allows you to exclude individual list lines from horizontal scrolling
(e.g. title lines and indented comment blocks).
Example
Fix the leading column
DATA: NUMBER TYPE I,
SUB_NUMBER TYPE I.
NEW-PAGE NO-TITLE NO-HEADING.
DO 10 TIMES.
NUMBER = SY-INDEX.
DO 10 TIMES.
SUB_NUMBER = SY-INDEX.
WRITE: /(10) NUMBER, '|',
(10) SUB_NUMBER, '|'.
SET LEFT SCROLL-BOUNDARY.
Not really necessary here because it was already set in the event
TOP-OF-PAGE .
------------------------------------------------------
No | Sub_No | DATA 1 | DATA 2 | DATA 3 |
------------------------------------------------------
1 | 1 | Data 1 | Data 2 | Data 3 |
1 | 2 | Data 1 | Data 2 | Data 3 |
1 | 3 | Data 1 | Data 2 | Data 3 |
...
10 | 8 | Data 1 | Data 2 | Data 3 |
10 | 9 | Data 1 | Data 2 | Data 3 |
10 | 10 | Data 1 | Data 2 | Data 3 |
------------------------------------------------------
Only the columns DATA 1 , DATA 2 and DATA 3 are
moved with horizontal scrolling.
