The usual practice is to define the field on the screen, and then hide it if it is not required under some circumstances, using the usual "loop at screen. screen-active = '0'. endloop." technique.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 13 Aug 2007 14:07:21 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/adding-input-box-to-screen-painter/m-p/2721059#M631270 Former Member 2007-08-13T14:07:21Z
