It is not necessary that i must highlight with different color.

Any highlight options in the pop up is fine for that character.

Hi,

When you are saying its a pop-up do you mean that its an information box or a window that you are displaying..

This is only possible during list processing using options like

FORMAT COLOR COL_BACKGROUND or COL_NEGATIVE or COL_POSITIVE etc.

Do F1 help on FORMAT.

It is not an information window.This is a normal window.

I am calling this FM COPO_POPUP_TO_DISPLAY_TEXTLIST to display the string.

Hi,

Please try this to highlight the code:

WRITE: / listtab+6(lv_len) COLOR COL_NEGATIVE<----- You may also use COL_POSITIVE

Even you can try below options for different colors.

WRITE  w_string+6(2) COLOR COL_TOTAL. " COL_NORMAL." COL_GROUP." COL_POSITIVE.

Hi ,

Thanks all for the replies.

If i use this ,

Then i only see the colored character as output.

But i need the full string as output with the formatted character colored.

What you can do is you can read the entire string and find the position of the character you want to color... Then color it accordingly...



 LOOP AT so_name.
      lv_len = strlen( so_name-low ).
      CLEAR lv_pos.
      WHILE lv_pos LT lv_len.
        lv_c = so_name-low+lv_pos(c_no).
        lv_pos = lv_pos +  1.
        IF c_wild CA lv_c.  <--- Check for your character here
set the color here 

           REFRESH so_name.
          CLEAR so_name.
          EXIT.
        ENDIF.
      ENDWHILE.
    ENDLOOP.

I think below code will be useful to you.

WRITE :/ w_string+0(6) COLOR COL_POSITIVE, w_string+6(1) COLOR COL_GROUP, w_string+6(27) COLOR COL_TOTAL.

DATA col TYPE i VALUE 0.

data : string(100) type c value 'abcdefghijkl'.

col = 1.

WRITE: / string+0(5).

FORMAT COLOR = col.

write: string+5(3).

format color off.

write: string+8(92).
