set cursor not working in module pool

Former Member — Thu, 12 Sep 2013 10:16:56 GMT

Hi Experts,

I am facing the problem while setting the cursor in the first field of the module pool program.

My requirement:

On ENTER command -> the non editable fields need to be filled up
On EXECUTE command -> should do some process.

When I keep my cursor in any of the input fields and press ENTER, the SY-UCOMM = ‘ENTER’ and the non-editable fields are filled out.

When I first do the ‘EXECUTE’ , SY-UCOMM = ‘EXECUTE’ and processing fine.

When I do the ‘EXECUTE’ first, SY-UCOMM = ‘EXECUTE’, the values are not filled – This is ok ( works ).

The above three statements works fine.

My problem starts now.

But when I do the ‘ENTER’ now, the cursor is positioned in ‘EXECUTE’ button and SY-UCOMM = ‘EXECUTE’ . So I am trying to keep the CURSOR using the SET CURSOR ‘FIRST_FIELD’ in PBO .

But it is not working out.

Kindly help me, how to bring the cursor from ‘EXECUTE BUTTON’ to the input field of the screen. I have attached the screen shot too.

Experts can you help on this.

Regards,

Satkhi.

Hello Sakthi.

Whether you had written in PBO specifically to set cursor in EXECUTE button?

By normal flow, cursor won't be in execute button but in the the first input field in the screen.

If you had written specifically, then in PBO after that code, SET CURSOR FIELD 'First_field' based on your business logic.

Regards.

Hi,

Instead of sy-ucomm, why don't you use ok_code field. This field you need to define in TOP include of Module pool and also in the Screen Element List.

In generally the cursor is placed in the first field of the screen automatically....but you're saying it's placed in a button of the bar?

Hi Arun,

Thanks for your input.

In PBO i wrote the SET CURSOR FIELD - to point to FIRST EDITABLE FIELD. This I inserted, as the cursor, sits on the EXECUTE push button in the Application Tool Bar.

Hi Shakthi,

Try defining function code for the ENTER ok code in the PF status of the screen and include the code for filling the non editable fields under this Function code for enter in the PAI.

Hi Sajid,

Thanks for the input.

Actually, I use, ok_code only. For convenience I wrote her sy-ucomm. Even I am clearing the ok_code after passing the sy-ucomm.

Hi Max,

Yes, this is only wondering me and that is the reason, I have introduced the SET CURSOR FIELD.

I attach the picture here, and the cursor positions the EXECUTE button and coming to first input field of the screen.

If I press ENTER now, the same EXECUTE function is working. If I manually, put my cursor on the first field and press ENTER, then the ENTER command is working.

But I want the cursor to be positioned automatically in the first field.

Rgds,

Sakthi.

Whether you had written code exclusively to set cursor in EXECUTE button or not?

Hi,

Use ok_code instead of sy-ucomm.

Try this in the PBO,

SET CURSOR FIELD '<field>'.

Jeffin

Hi Sakthi,

As jeffin told it will work fine in the case of PBO, but if you want to write that in PAI the set cursor statement should be followe be a message of type 'E', ie error message.

EG; SET CUSRSOR FIELD '<FIELD>'.

MESSAGE 'ERROR' TYPE 'E'.

Hi Arun,

As I said earlier, I did not write any code for set cursor EXECUTE commant in PBO.

Hi Jeffin and Ashish,

I wrote my code in PBO only and using ok_code not sy-ucomm.

You should post your code.....I can't understand your problem because it's very strange behavior...it's the first time for me...I've never seen a situation where the cursor is set on toolbar.

Sakthi,

Just debug and check if the last statement in your PBO that is executed is SET CURSOR FIELD 'First_field'. Check required program flow is happening or not.
