Hi,

this sound like an extension of your screen, which must be done as a screen exit and not field exit as you write. There are some examples in SDN for it:

hi,

there´s no recipe or magic formula for that. Every case is specific and I myself cannot tell you exactly what and where you have to do. First step is to learn about screen exits.

These are only some basic steps:

1. Go to the screen~~>System~~>Status-->Program (Double click this program. It will take you to the program)

2. Now, Go to-->Object Directory Entry.

3. Make a note about package name.

4. Now run the transaction SMOD, press F4 and enter the above noted package, press enter.

5. It will display a list of Exits.

6. Now go back to the initial screen SMOD.

7. Specify the exit name here that might be the correct one and select the radio button Components.

8. It will display four group boxes one for FM, second for Fcodes, third for Screen areas and last for includes.

9. Go to transaction CMOD, create a new project and click the button "Enhancement assignments" and specify your enhancements that you got in SMOD.

10. Now double click the enhancement, it will take you to the ABAP editor with some includes starting with Z, double click the screen you want to modify and proceed.
