COMPLEX_SELECTIONS_DIALOG does not clear range table parameter

brian_basch — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 14:56:33 GMT

When calling the function module COMPLEX_SELECTIONS_DIALOG and clearing out all of the ranges, it does not clear the ranges table parameter nor does it return an exception. Below is the code

form get_range_info
    tables  p_filter_range
    using   value(p_title)
            value(p_search_help_name).

  call function 'COMPLEX_SELECTIONS_DIALOG'
   exporting
     title                   = p_title
*         TEXT                    =
*         SIGNED                  = 'X'
*         LOWER_CASE              = ' '
*         NO_INTERVAL_CHECK       = ' '
*         JUST_DISPLAY            = ' '
*         JUST_INCL               = ' '
*         EXCLUDED_OPTIONS        =
*         DESCRIPTION             =
*         HELP_FIELD              =
          search_help             = p_search_help_name
*         TAB_AND_FIELD           =
    tables
      range                   = p_filter_range
       exceptions
         no_range_tab            = 1
         cancelled               = 2
         internal_error          = 3
         invalid_fieldname       = 4
         others                  = 5
            .
  if sy-subrc = 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
  endif.

The p_filter_range may contain data when passed to the subroutine. If it does and the ranges are cleared in the function module, the function module passes back the original range data in p_filter_range and does not raise an exception. Have I missed something in calling the function module or is this an error with the function module?

Thanks,

Hi,

The function module 'COMPLEX_SELECTIONS_DIALOG' is used to get mutiple and various types of ranges from the user. That is about SIGN and OPTION field values. Hope that you know this.

Calling this function module with values in RANGE parameter will be the default values.

I checked it and it is not clearing the internal table. My code is as follows:

start-of-selection.

GW_SRVNR-OPTION = 'BT'.

GW_SRVNR-SIGN = 'E'.

GW_SRVNR-LOW = '11'.

GW_SRVNR-HIGH = '21'.

APPEND GW_SRVNR TO ITAB_RANGE_SRVNR.

PERFORM COMP_CHECK TABLES ITAB_RANGE_SRVNR.

LOOP AT ITAB_RANGE_SRVNR INTO GW_SRVNR.

WRITE: /5 GW_SRVNR-SIGN,

GW_SRVNR-OPTION,

GW_SRVNR-LOW,

GW_SRVNR-HIGH.

ENDLOOP.

FORM COMP_CHECK TABLES P_RANGE.

CALL FUNCTION 'COMPLEX_SELECTIONS_DIALOG'

EXPORTING

TITLE = ' '
TEXT =
SIGNED = 'X'
LOWER_CASE = ' '
NO_INTERVAL_CHECK = ' '
JUST_DISPLAY = ' '
JUST_INCL = ' '
EXCLUDED_OPTIONS =
DESCRIPTION =
HELP_FIELD =

SEARCH_HELP = 'HEHS_SRV_NUMBER'

TAB_AND_FIELD =

TABLES

RANGE = ITAB_RANGE_SRVNR

EXCEPTIONS

NO_RANGE_TAB = 1

CANCELLED = 2

INTERNAL_ERROR = 3

INVALID_FIELDNAME = 4

OTHERS = 5.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

ENDFORM. " COMP_CHECK

It writes the default values and also the new values i entered.

R.Nagarajan.

Problem solved. The parameter table of the subroutine, since undefined, appears to have a header. This was causing problems with other portions of my code. Clearing the header before leaving the subroutine solved the problem.
