Hi Jepoy,

It is not possible to make a textbox multiline in selection screen.

You can create a custom container and texteditor to it. i.e. Create a custom container and assign texteditor to it.

Use

CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER ---- For Custom Container

CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT ------ For texteditor

Don't use a CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER but a CL_GUI_DOCKING_CONTAINER that you will dock at bottom of SELECTION-SCREEN.

at selection-screen output.
   if go_cont is initial.
     gv_repid = sy-repid.
     gv_dynnr = sy-dynnr.
     create object go_cont
       exporting
         repid     = gv_repid
         dynnr     = gv_dynnr
         extension = 90
         side      = cl_gui_docking_container=>dock_at_bottom.
   
endif.

Then use this container as parent of the text editor. Also create a NO-DISPLAY parameter to store the text internal table maintained by the text editor, so those data will be saved with variants.
