Hi,

use the function module F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST.

In PBO of the screen, fill up an internal table with the desired fields depending upon the selection.

Pass this table to above function module to the

value_tab parameter.

Hope this helps....

regards,

Shashank

You can use:

AT SELECTION-SCREEN FOR screenfld2.

IF screenfld1 EQ 'value'.

screenfld2 = 'some value'.

ELSE.

...

ENDIF.

Use below function module

that will definately work

call function 'DYNP_GET_STEPL'

importing

povstepl = step_line

exceptions

stepl_not_found = 1

others = 2.

call function 'DYNP_VALUES_UPDATE'

exporting

dyname = lc_dyname

dynumb = lc_dynumb

tables

dynpfields = ltab_fields

exceptions

others = 8.

commit work and wait.

this may be useful.

regards

vinod

From the help on search helps:

A search help attachment is an assignment of a 
search help to a table, structure or data element, causing
the corresponding search help to be automatically used to 
describe the input help process at this field when       
an ABAP Dictionary field is used in a screen.                                                                                
You can attach a search help as follows:                                                                                
1.  <b>Attach a search help to a structure or table field:
 The attached search help is available for all screen fields that refer to the table or structure field.</b> 
There must be an assignment between the interface 
parameters of the search help and the fields of the table 
or structure for this type of attachment. In the input 
help process, this assignment results in a value transport
 between the corresponding fields (if they are known at 
least to the module pool of the screen) and the search 
help parameters. As for the foreign key definition, you 
can assign nothing, a constant or any other field (which 
is then sought in the module pool) to indivdiual search 
help parameters.

For eg, the table SFLIGHT has the search help SFLIGHT associated with it, and using this, if the CARRID is entered, the CONNID dropdown lists only those connections with the carrid in the CARRID field.

If you want to populate the fields as soon as the first field is selected, you might need to look at coding a search help exit.

Hi Arshad,

Here's what you need to do.

In your search help definiton, enter the name of the Screen parameters you want to populate. You must make sure that they are spelt exactly the way you have defined them on the screen.

Mark these parameters as Export parameters by checking the checkbox.

Your Search Help must have these values available and associated with the main parameter you are creating the Search Help for. This you will set through "Parameter Assignment".

When the user selects a value, SAP will export these values directly to the Screen elements whose names you have defined in you Search Help as Export parameters. This is an automatic function of Search Helps when used with Screens in Module-pools.

Hope this helps,

Regards,

Madhur
