Hi,

First, create the button on the screen. Give a name like 'THISBUTTON' in the name field of the button(not the text field), click the OUTPUT Only checkbox. Now, in your ABAP program, define a field for this button that you created and set the value of the icon in the PBO.

In this sample program, there is a button on screen 100
which has the name of THISBUTTON, and is set as output
only.

report zkiran_0001.

<b>type-pools: icon.

data: thisbutton(30) Type c.</b>

call screen 100.

&----

*& Module status_0100 OUTPUT

&----

text

----

module status_0100 output.

<b>write icon_green_light as icon to thisbutton.

concatenate thisbutton 'This is the button' into thisbutton

separated by space.</b>

endmodule. " status_0100 OUTPUT

&----

*& Module user_command_0100 INPUT

&----

text

----

module user_command_0100 input.

leave program.

endmodule. " user_command_0100 INPUT

The usual recommendation is to call the ICON_CREATE function module module to define your icons - this gives you extra functionality such as being able to specify the quickinfo for it at runtime... have a read through:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/59/348efa61c611d295750000e8353423/content.htm

as this gives a lot more info, and an example.

cheers
