Hi friends

firstname, lastname and empid and exporting parameter should be a table which would contain the employee name and his manger name.

I have to write a search method. I would search an employee using wildcard characters (in paramter) for eg if i input 'Chris*' and press f4 or enter it has to show all the name starting with 'Chris......' .

Hi John,

Follow these steps.

now go to SE11 click on search help button and create.

click on elementary search help

once you have created you will see selection method there give there your table name (Example : lfa1)

in the paremeters give the field name <field name> and click on EXP button Lpos as 1 & Spos as 1 then enter and save.

In the code ie se38 give this way

select-options: S_<fieldname> for lfa1-<fieldname> MATCHCODE OBJECT MCO..

ACTIVATE AND EXECUATE WHEN U CLICK ON F4 you can see the values.

Thanks
