Select Options

Former Member — Thu, 17 May 2007 02:37:09 GMT

Hello All

I have created a selection-screen with select-options, everything is working fine except that instead of showing the field descriptions its showing field names. Is there a way through which I can display the description rather than the field names. The following is my selection screen declaration:

SELECTION-SCREEN: BEGIN OF BLOCK selections

WITH FRAME TITLE text-f01.

SELECT-OPTIONS vstel FOR likp-vstel.

SELECT-OPTIONS kunag FOR likp-kunnr.

SELECT-OPTIONS lifnr FOR lfa1-lifnr.

SELECT-OPTIONS scacd FOR lfa1-scacd.

SELECT-OPTIONS datbg FOR vttk-datbg

SELECTION-SCREEN: END OF BLOCK selections.

In the screen I want to show it as

Origin Point----

>>>>>>>> Options

Dest.Point----

>>>>>>>> Options

Would appreciate your help.

Thanks

Sunil

Open the report where you have declared the select-options.

Then use the menu path :

Goto->Text Elements->Selection Texts.

Here you can give your own names for your select options.

Activate the texts. Activate your report and run.

Hope this helps you.

Hi Sunil Rao,

Open your ABAP via SE38 then goto menu Goto->Text elements->Selection texts

Here you can change "?..." to your description that you want to show or if your field name have referred to table filed(data dict) you can tick at check box to use a description from table filed

After you have already declared, do not forget to click ACTIVATE (Ctrl+F3).

Now go back to your code and test run.

Hope this help.

Regards,

Tiwa.
