Screen Number: 0101

I want to call this screen for two different se38 Programs with "Call Screen '0101' ".

Is it Possible?

Or how to call a screen with it's Program name and screen number.

Thanks and Regards,

Sohail

Hi Muhammad,

You may use subscreen for this. First, you need to create a screen for your current program then create a subscreen. Then, on the PBO of your new screen, you need to include this code.

CALL SUBSCREEN sub_area INCLUDING prog dynnr.

sub_area - the name of the subscreen control which is in the new screen you have created

prog - is the program name where the screen to display is located

dynnr - is the screen number you wish to be displayed.

Regards,

Peter

Hi, Sohail

You can call Subscreen of any of your program to other program using following statement

CALL SUBSCREEN SUB_SCREEN_AREA INCLUDING 'PROGRAM_NAME' 'SCREEN_NUMBER'.

Please Reply if any confusion

Hi,

I don't know if this is feasible to call screen of different program but you can copy that screen to your program. Of course not element by element but with a simple trick:

Export

- go to source program and get to screen flow logic

- in command line (where you normally type transaction code) just type UTDL , you will be prompted to save the screen as flat file

Import

- in target program create empty screen and go to its flow logic

- now type (in same place as above) UTUL , indicate the file from which the screen is supposed to be imported

- activate all

This way you can copy screen content b/w programs even on different non-connected systems.

Regards

Marcin

@ Peter and Faisal

Guys this is only relevant for subscreens, not main screen. So if the screen type is normal it won't work
