Hi,

Jus go through this.

define, implement and register the event u201Conf4u201D at proper places in your code. For F4 help, you must register the fields whose F4 request will trigger the u201Conf4u201D event. For this you must prepare a table of type u201CLVC_T_F4u201D and register this table using the method u201Cregister_f4_for_fieldsu201D. While preparing table you must include a line for each field which will trigger F4 event. For each field in the structure;

􀂾 Pass the fieldname to u2018FIELDNAMEu2019

􀂾 Set u2018REGISTERu2019 to make the field registered,

􀂾 Set u2018GETBEFOREu2019 to provide field content transport before F4 in editable mode

􀂾 Set u2018CHNGEAFTERu2019 to make the data changed after F4 in editable mode.

DATA: lt_f4 TYPE lvc_t_f4 WITH HEADER LINE .

.. ..

lt_f4-fieldname = 'PRICE'.

lt_f4-register = 'X' .

lt_f4-getbefore = 'X' .

APPEND lt_f4 .

CALL METHOD gr_alvgrid->register_f4_for_fields

EXPORTING

it_f4 = lt_f4[]

A sample u201Conf4u201D method implementation:

METHOD handle_on_f4 .

PERFORM f4_help USING e_fieldname es_row_no .

er_event_data->m_event_handled = 'X' .

ENDMETHOD .

Again, we set the attribute u201Cer_event_data->m_event_handledu201D to prevent further processing of standard F4 help.
