Cursor position : still didnt get solution

Former Member — Wed, 26 Sep 2007 21:13:42 GMT

In screen painter, I have two fields er_id and er_name.In er_id I have validated

for duplication record.Once user enters er_id,I checked for its existence in its table

if exists warning message is displayed and if not exists cursor should go to next field i.e er_name.How to acheive this?My code is

select * from t1 where er_id = er_id

if sy-dbcnt <> o

message 'er id exists'

else

set cursor field 'er_name'.

endif

But this is not working,i placed above code in module m1 input',some said that set cursor should be in PBO.So I assigned boolean value to one variable and checked in PBO,even then its not working.

else

status = 'yes'.

endif

PBO:

if status = 'yes'.

set cursor field 'er_name'.

endif.

Help me.Thanks in advance.

Note : I admit that in SAP validations are not done at field level. Its just my curiosity to know.

Hi again.

Try the program below as a demo... it includes comments to explain... I think your problem may be that you are using lowercase in the variable name you are trying to place the cursor on, but without seeing your original code I cannot be sure.
