Editable List Box.

Former Member — Tue, 01 May 2007 12:37:56 GMT

Hello Experts,

I have created a List Box in a screen of module pool program. I want that list box editable.

i.e. if the user wants to enter some new value in the list box he can do that in the list box it self. However (preferably) he can not edit any preexisting values of the list box.

Please help me out with this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Hi somnath,

1. I don't think that is allowed in listbox.

2. As the name suggests, listbox is specially for selecting from a pre-defined

list of values.

I think this is possible .

I'll just try to give you an example .

Please see the List Box Created where we Type the TRANSACTION CODES.

Its of type List Box and we can edit that.

Isn't it?

Hi there!

Exactly what I thought. I'm also looking for a possibility to edit a listbox (dropdown field) in an ALV GRID. If a value is not in the list, it should be possible to add a new one via keyboard.

And I've also thought, that the listbox for the transactions is exactly what I'm looking for.

Any suggestions to solve this problem?
