Hi Kanny,

The dropdown list box is a field with an arrow icon on the right side. Clicking on this icon drops down a list immediately below the field and shows the user which values can be chosen. An entry in the list is called list box item. The dropdown list box is read-only

Hello,

Drop down list is used where the user is forced to enter values only available in the list and the user cant enter his own values (unlike F4 help).

Execute this demo program:<b>RSDEMO_DROPDOWN_LISTBOX</b>.

All the four parameters here use drop-down lists.

Beejal

Hi,

Drop-down menus are probably the most flexible objects you can add to your forms.

Depending on your settings, drop-down menus can serve the same purpose as radio buttons (one selection only) or check boxes (multiple selections allowed).

The advantage of a drop-down menu, compared to radio buttons or check boxes, is that it takes up less space.

But that is also a disadvantage, because people can't see all options in the menu right away.

have a look at this link:

Drop down list is like means A small icon will be there in the right coner of a field

if u click on that field it will show the values in that list.

ex:- After entering in to sap logon u will enter transaction code in transaction command, if u obser clearly u will find aicon at the right conner in command field

If u gone through MM01 there in the first screen it will show only meterial field there also u can find this drop down list box.

append value_wa to value.

clear value_wa.

value_wa-key = 'MARKET'.

append value_wa to value.

clear value_wa.

value_wa-key = 'OWENED'.

append value_wa to value.

CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'
