Help for Help

I remember i have used a SAP Help wich shows a window when we can write a word and it shows the documentation help for that word.

This is like help window showed when we press F1 in some code line in ABAP program for search help for some ABAP command.

But i use that Help called from F1 in ABAP code line i do not find where can i write other Word for search help for that Word.

Then, i tried using the transaction ABAPHELP but in my system we do not have access to this Tcode.

Does somebody knows how can i go to SAP Help where i can write a Word for search Help for it ?

Regards

Frank

Hi,

what i understand the documentation which displays when you press F1 key on the screen/selection screen

F1 help will be created in SE11 at data element level.

You can see the documentation button on tool bar for data element.

Hi Frank,

I think you mean the search help we get on SE38 editor screen in ECC 6.0 with blue icon "i".

Let me know if this helps you.

Thanks for your answers. Yes i refer to help displayed when we press F1 over some line in ABAP program , but i would like go to this help directly without be in code program, that is go to the help and then write my word for search all the SAP documentation.

I guess it's the left side of help.sap.com but i do not know how to get it for write my word and go to SAP documentation like if i press F1 over ABAP program line.

I hope i give the explanation well.

Regards

Frank

Hi,

As mentioned above, you are most likely talking about this litte blue "i" icon in SE38 or SE80. It allows to enter abap keyword, glossary, index and lots of others. Just use this one for searching any SAP documentation. There is also online manual available there.

You can also use below transactions and if not authorized run their respective programs.

ABAPDOCU - program -> SAPMSABAPDEMOS_TREE

ABAPHELP - program -> SAP_HELP_ABAP

The second you mentioned you are not authorized to call, simply use the program instead.

Hope this 'help on help' will help
