Selection screen modifications

Former Member — Tue, 05 Oct 2010 06:01:52 GMT

Hi fellow ABAPPERS,

I am currently working on a selection screen which requires descriptive text being displayed at the left of each field. This text changes according to the user input. Since the use of comments cannot be dynamic, I have opted to manually changing the selection screen dynpro (screen 1000), by adding the text boxes where needed. Then the code automatically places the required text at run-time.

This solution works, but the problem is that any further modification made to the selection screen declaration leads to a regeneration of the screen. Thus all the text boxes that were added manually via screen painter are lost.

Do any of you know any way to avoid this problem and make the screen text fixed?

Please not that the screen cannot be converted into Module Pool as the program should be able to run in background as well.

All your help would be greatly appreciated .

Just try those snippets

PARAMETERS: p_field(20).

AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
  WRITE sy-uzeit TO %_p_field_%_app_%-text.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.
SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 1(30) p_text FOR FIELD p_field.
PARAMETERS: p_field(20).
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
  WRITE sy-uzeit TO p_text.

Hi Raymond,

Thanks for ur reply. But there was a mistake in my question. I actually have to display the dynamic text on the RIGHT of the parameter. Any idea on how to do that?

Thx
