adding copy button in F4 help window

Former Member — Wed, 29 Dec 2010 12:40:25 GMT

Hi,

I have a requirement to create a new button for (Copy button) copying a new address number in the F4 help window of address number in my program selection screen. I.e when user presses F4 on the address number parameter, in the new opened window tool bar there should be a copy button available. Can anyone suggest how to do this?

Thanks.

It depends on how your field is defined and how your help is implemented, but via a search help, you can use a search help exit to either overtake the screen processing completely (call point PRESEL) and add all the buttons/fields that you desire or you can add pushbuttons to the hit list and react to the clicks. See the help on search helps for more info. You can also implement your own help processing in your program in the AT SELECTION SCREEN process. Again, see the help for more info.

Thanks Brad,

But my requirement is like to add a button next to the "Find button" when the window opens after pressing F4. I have used "F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST" to create F4 help, but need to add a button on this F4 help window tool bar. Is it possible to do, if yes how?

Thanks.
