ABAP dynpro: search help assignment with two dynpro fields

[Former Member]

Hello,

unfortunately, I have to develop an old dynpro (not web dynpro !) application.

On one dynpro screen, there are two fields BNAME and VERSION.

These two fields may contain values. I like to use SEARCH HELP in order to get proposed values for BNAME based on BNAME and VERSION which will be visible on the screen together with F4 selection options.

I have developed a search help which accepts to input parameters BNAME and VERSION. The search help works fine with two parameters if I test the search help directly within SE11.

My problem is: how can I call the search help from the GUI if the user press F4 search help of field BNAME and VERSION?

Yours

Hi Stephan,

long live the ABAP dynpro How did you create the fields on the dynpro?

Honestly speaking I have also not worked with dynpros for a long time. But I just gave it a quick try:

if I assign the search help properly to a table or structure in SE11 and then use the function 'get from dictionary' based on this table or structure while creating the fields on the dynpro, it works fine in my example.

Best regards
