Dynamic table control creation?

Question

I have a task to create tableview on a GUI screen dynamically. The control must be created dynamically fo different table types, because we need to maintain different tables. I mean I need SM30 looking table maintainance screen.

Is it possible in ABAP to create tableview dynamically? Or is it possible within ALV grids only?

No doubt that the ALV Grid Control is more powerful than the old Dynpro **Table Control** technology. — Sandra Rossi, Nov 02 '22 at 15:44

There isn't any alternative table view for SAP GUI. You need to use ALV to show multiple lines same time.

You can create ALV dynamically.

As a very slim trick use STC1_FULLSCREEN_TABLE_CONTROL. It makes table control just in time

CALL FUNCTION 'STC1_FULLSCREEN_TABLE_CONTROL'
  EXPORTING
    header                  = 'MyTab'
    tabname                 = 'MARA'
    no_button               = 'X'
  TABLES
    table                   = lt_mara
  EXCEPTIONS
    no_more_tables          = 1
    too_many_fields         = 2
    nametab_not_valid       = 3
    handle_not_valid        = 4
    OTHERS                  = 5
.

However, I agree with the rest of commenters that ALV grid will be much better for this case.
