You can do it at selection screen

at selection-screen output

loop at screen.

*Find the text field for the checkbox in debugging.

if screen-name = <check box text field>

screen-name = <your text>.

modify screen.

endif.

endloop.

Hi Alekhya,

Try with this...

1. Define the checkbox and comment in the same line in

the screen.

2. Make the checkbox text (selection text) as blank.

3. Asssign an 8 character long field to the comment.

for Eg: SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 3(55) text1234.

4. In the INITIALIZATION event assign text to that

variable.

5. In the AT selection-screen event u can change the

contents of that variable . which will result in the

dynamic change in the checkbox text.

For futher info. Please check the SAP help below...

<b>SELECTION-SCREEN - Defining Titles and Texts on Selection Screens</b>

You can define texts for various text objects: ( comments, pushbuttons, ...)

There are two ways to do this:

<b>1. Static definition:</b> You enter the text in the form TEXT-xxx with a three-character identifier xxx as a text symbol.

The contents of the text symbol TEXT-xxx appears on the selection screen and cannot be changed dynamically.

<b>2.Dynamic definition:</b> You enter a field name of up to eight characters ex. abcdefgh.

In this case, the system creates a field with the name abcdefgh . Its contents then appear on the selection screen at runtime. You must set these texts at runtime (in the INITIALIZATION part of a report, or in the INIT routine of the logical database program SAPDBldb. You can also change them while the selection screen is being processed.

Notes

The field abcdefgh is generated automatically. You do not have to declare it using the DATA statement.

You can define texts in any of the following:

- SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF SCREEN

- SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK

- SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT

- SELECTION-SCREEN PUSHBUTTON

Example

TABLES SAPLANE.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK CHARLY

WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-001.

PARAMETERS PARM(5).

SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT /5(20) COMM1234.

SELECT-OPTIONS SEL FOR SAPLANE-PLANETYPE.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK CHARLY.

...

INITIALIZATION.

MOVE 'Test dynamic text' TO COMM1234.

( TEXT-001 has the contents 'Block Charly').

Selection screen:

Block Charly--
