• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 37133 - Table control & can already be resized horizontally (not executed) ?

  The SAP error message 37133, which states "Table control & can already be resized horizontally (not executed)," typically occurs in the context of SAP GUI when working with table controls in screen programming (dynpro). This error indicates that the system is trying to execute a resizing operation on a table control that is already set to be resizable horizontally.
  Cause:
  
  Redundant Resizing Attempt: The error usually arises when there is an attempt to resize a table control that has already been configured to allow horizontal resizing. This can happen if the resizing logic is incorrectly implemented in the screen flow logic or if there are multiple calls to resize the same control.
  Screen Configuration: The screen or the table control may have been configured in a way that does not allow for the intended resizing operation, or the resizing logic is being triggered multiple times unnecessarily.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Screen Logic: Review the screen flow logic (PBO and PAI modules) to ensure that the resizing operation is only called when necessary. Avoid redundant calls to the resizing function.
  Modify Table Control Properties: Ensure that the properties of the table control are correctly set in the screen painter. If the control is already set to be resizable, you do not need to call the resizing function again.
  Debugging: Use the debugger to trace the execution flow and identify where the resizing operation is being called. This can help pinpoint the exact location in the code that is causing the error.
  Code Review: Look for any custom code or enhancements that might be interfering with the standard behavior of the table control. Ensure that any modifications are compatible with the standard SAP behavior.
