Hi everyone,

I got a problem,

when I make the dropdown list for a field in the screen,I put 4 records as followings:

IDENT TEXT

08 germany

cn china

ib india

jp japan

and the key field is IDENT. what I want is on the screen,only TEXT will be displayed,and

after selecting, IDENT will be returned. I have importing the value table ,and make the parameter

retfield = 'IDENT' and value_org = 's' . when I excuted the program, why I still got 'IDENT' and

"TEXT' both displayed on the screen just like "08 germany".

and my colleague copy my program to his package,when he excuted the program,he only got "TEXT'

displayed on the screen like "germany".

It is very weird. I cannot figure it out.

I would appreciate for your help.

Thanks

Hi,

I have seen the same problem.

I believe its due to different screen resolutions

and other screen attributes.

Try adjusting your screen. Hope this will resolve your problem.
