Not possible.

Why do you want "Customer... low Customer..." anyway. Makes no sense.It's supposed to be a range. Or is low your local language word for to?

So why did you say low?

But the answer is no - not without an absolutely enormous effort where the cost massively outweighs any possible benefit. Especially since you'd want it for all select options. But if you're wanting it for just one, then that's just bad design. SAP has a standard look and feel - it's foolishness to deviate from that.

Your requirement is somewhat odd. I don't know more about SAP GUIXT but it used to tweak screen you can take a look at once. I am not sure this helps to fulfill your requirement.

It's possible with this code bellow, but I still don't see the reason to do it....

field-symbols: <any> type any.

at selection-screen output.

loop at screen.

if screen-name cp '*%_APP_%-TO_TEXT'.

assign (screen-name) to <any>.

if sy-subrc eq 0.

<any> = '-'.

endif.

OK - not massively enormous effort then. But I stand by my contention that to make this change is a very bad idea.

I can only agree.
