Hello Evonne

I have not used table controls for many years but if I remember correctly then you can set in the attributes of the table control field whether it should be of type "dropdown list". If the field is linked to a value table via foreign key or to a domain containing fixed values they should be displayed as dropdown list.

Regards,

Uwe

Hi Evonne,

The field which you want as a dropdown should be chosen as a Listbox from the attributes of the screen.

For this to be filled with values, you have to use the Funtion Module : VRM_SET_VALUES in the PBO of the screen.

Here is a smal example of how to use this FM. Implement the same in the PBO of the screen.

TYPE-POOLS : vrm.

PARAMETERS : p_c(5) TYPE c AS LISTBOX VISIBLE LENGTH 5.

DATA : name1 TYPE vrm_id,
       list1 TYPE vrm_values,
       value1 LIKE LINE OF list1.
DATA : n TYPE i.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
  name1 = 'P_C'.

  DO 5 TIMES.
    value1-key = n.
    value1-text = n.
    APPEND value1 TO list1.
    n = n + 1.
  ENDDO.

  CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'
       EXPORTING
            id     = name1
            values = list1.

Regards

Gopi
