Selection Screen Processing

Former Member — Mon, 26 Nov 2012 19:48:24 GMT

Hi Gurus !....I have a selection screen in ABAP with several fields. I'm using the AT SELECTION-SCREEN event to edit the selection fields. When a user enters data and presses the "Enter Key" the system will edit the fields and wait until the "Execute" button is pressed to process the data. However, if I enter some data on the screen and press the "Execute" button instead of the "Enter" key it will edit the data as usual, but if I press "Enter" after fixing the data it will execute the report. Is this the way it should work ? I hope the explanation is clear enough. Thanks, Mike

Hi Michael,

In your AT SELECTION-SCREEN event, it sounds like you need to pay attention to the value of sy-ucomm and execute only the desired code depending on whether the user has pressed ENTER or EXECUTE.

Cheers,

Amy
