You can have a display only field next to the key value, get the description and assign the description to the display only field.

Where are you using this, on the selection screen?

I guess you are handling the search help yourself in the event of that specific field.

Have a display only field next to the parameter, and then in your code, once you get the key get the description and assign that to the display only field.

Declare a parameter beside the key field for the description like :

PARAMETERS p_param_text TYPE (data_element) MODIF ID b.

and restrict the display of that field at initialization

INITIALIZATION.

LOOP AT SCREEN.

IF screen-group1 = b.

screen-input = 0.

screen-display_3d = 0.

ENDIF.

MODIFY SCREEN.

ENDLOOP.

Now use some logic to get the description against the field and do something like this :

IF NOT p_param is INITIAL.

p_param_text = desc.

ENDIF.

where p_param = parameter for which u need desc.

p_param_text = parameter for description

desc = description
