create a datatype in se11 where you enter all the months as predefined values. refer to this type in the selection screen.

kind regards

try this code



TYPE-POOLS : vrm.


INITIALIZATION.  


v_name = 'MONTH'.   " MONTH must be a parameter name....
  wa_value-key = 'JAN' .
  APPEND wa_value TO i_list.
  wa_value-key = 'FEB' .
  APPEND wa_value TO i_list.
  wa_value-key = 'MAR' .
  APPEND wa_value TO i_list.
...................
  wa_value-key = 'DEC' .
  APPEND wa_value TO i_list.

  CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'
    EXPORTING
      id     = v_name
      values = i_list.

create Data element in that data element create Domain

In that domain in VALU RANGE u can specify ur values

& use that DATA ELEMENT in ur program

Then it will act as drop down list

It will work for u

okay, now i have found out:

p_monat TYPE month AS LISTBOX VISIBLE LENGTH 20.

so far so good. how is it possible now to enter a default value here which is

always the actual month - 1.

b'caoz after that u can use it anywhere in other object

Or else create dynamic list in INITIALIZATION.

but it is always better to go with VALUE RANGE
