Checking select option values.

Hi Guys/Dolls

I have an ABAP program that works ok but I would like to make it more flexible.

The program populates a select option field on the INITILIZATION event but I need to check values entered are within valid range.

I’m using

CHECK p0008-TRFGR EQ 'PROF' OR p0008-TRFGR EQ 'GRADE 09'.

But I’m sure there is a way to use

CHECK p0008-TRFGR IN p_ps_grp.

Which is much more elegant but I don’t know how; if I use the above the program crashes and only way to resolve is not to populate it within the initilization section and to use a variant. Is there a solution out there.

A snippet of my code is as follows:-


REPORT zh119rep LINE-SIZE 175 NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.


* Define the Pay scale group range.
SELECT-OPTIONS p_ps_grp FOR p0008-trfgr.


* INITIALIZATION EVENT
INITIALIZATION.
* Set the Pay Scale Groups but 1st clear it.
  REFRESH p_ps_grp.
  p_ps_grp-low = 'PROF'.
  APPEND p_ps_grp.
  p_ps_grp-low = 'GRADE 09'.
  APPEND p_ps_grp.


GET pernr.

* Check to see if selected wage type is in range.
  CHECK p0008-TRFGR IN p_ps_grp.	“ This crashes program
*  CHECK p0008-TRFGR EQ 'PROF' OR p0008-TRFGR EQ 'GRADE 09'. “ This ok.

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance.

the following should work fine..

REPORT zh119rep LINE-SIZE 175 NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.
 
 
* Define the Pay scale group range.
SELECT-OPTIONS p_ps_grp FOR p0008-trfgr.
 
 
* INITIALIZATION EVENT
INITIALIZATION.
* Set the Pay Scale Groups but 1st clear it.
  REFRESH p_ps_grp.
  p_ps_grp-sign = 'I'.
  p_ps_grp-option = 'EQ'.
  p_ps_grp-low = 'PROF'.
  APPEND p_ps_grp.
  p_ps_grp-low = 'GRADE 09'.
  APPEND p_ps_grp.
 
 
GET pernr.
 
* Check to see if selected wage type is in range.
  CHECK p0008-TRFGR IN p_ps_grp.
