Suresh,

Search helps are meant to select a single value, by adding a check are you trying to give option to the user to select multiple line items.

Not clear why are you doing the same. If that is the case, Iam not sure if Search helps should be the solution.

Ravi

Are you trying to give option to user for multiple choices???

Go to SE37 and find function module starting with F4IF*. Probably these FM's be of some help to you.

Deva.

initialization.

do 20 times.

move sy-index to itab_matnr.

append itab_matnr.

enddo.

at selection-screen on value-request for p_matnr.

CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'

EXPORTING

RETFIELD = 'P_MATNR'

VALUE_ORG = 'S'

TABLES

VALUE_TAB = itab_matnr

return_tab = ITAB_SELECTED_MATNR

EXCEPTIONS

PARAMETER_ERROR = 1

NO_VALUES_FOUND = 2

OTHERS = 3

IF SY-SUBRC eq 0.

READ TABLE ITAB_SELECTED_MATNR INDEX 1.

MOVE ITAB_SELECTED_MATNR-FIELDVAL TO P_MATNR.

ENDIF.

start-of-selection.

write p_matnr.

hi Suresh,

Search helps are meant to fill up single values in the field where you press F4.

Could you please let us know the scenario where in you want multiple values to be returned from the search help.

...and if u somehow are able to do it....where are you going to store these values....in a table control / internal table???

can your problem be solved if you use select-options with multiple values????

rgds,
