Dialog dropdown max 80 characters?

Former Member — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 09:01:56 GMT

Dear all,

I've created a dropdown list using dialog. Next I use FM F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST to populate it.

TYPES: BEGIN OF gty_listbox,
         key  TYPE char4,
         text TYPE char255,
       END OF gty_listbox.
DATA: gt_sum_list01 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF gty_listbox,
      lw_sum_list01 TYPE gty_listbox.
 lw_sum_list01-key = gc_sum_sh01.
lw_sum_list01-text = text-b08.
APPEND lw_sum_list01 TO gt_sum_list01.
lw_sum_list01-key = gc_sum_sh01.
lw_sum_list01-text = text-b09.
APPEND lw_sum_list01 TO gt_sum_list01.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
     EXPORTING
       retfield        = 'KEY'
       value_org       = 'S'
       dynprofield     = gc_sum_list01
     TABLES
       value_tab       = gt_sum_list01
     EXCEPTIONS
       parameter_error = 1
       no_values_found = 2
       OTHERS          = 3.
   IF sy-subrc <> 0.
     MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
             WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
   ENDIF.

The text symbol text-b08 and text-b09 contains 89 characters, but only 80 characters is being displayed. I've resized the dropdown to be very wide, but still the same. Is it dropdown can have a maximum of 80 characters?

Regards,

Liang

Hi liang,

Your coding is right. In text symbol we can give maximum of 132 chars . so its displaying all the 132 chars.

Hi Ramya,

My text symbol have 89 characters only, but it's not displaying all. So I'm wondering is this the limit of dropdown or I missed something.
