Hello,

Just create a parameter of type C of length 1. If it contains a value then it is selected else not.

Hello,

Please be a bit clear on your requirement. What exactly are you trying to attain ? You will call the FM in some program , so when you call the FM you want a checkbox be displayed like a screen ?

How can a FM have a initial screen? If you are meaning SE37 sxecution of the FM, i dont think you can have visible checkboxes as in report selection screens.

Thnx vikrant,

my test fm initial screen will have report like check boxes

?? Function modules don't have screens...they do have import, export parameters.

If you look at how "checkboxes" are stored in db tables, you'll see that the previous replies are precisely correct. A check box is a char1 field...it is on when 'X' (ABAP_TRUE) and off when blank (initial)....you would call your FM with an import field of type char1 set to 'X' or set to space, and handle accordingly in your FM code.

If you have a checkbox on a selection screen, then the value of that parameter is either 'X' or space, depending upon whether or not the user checked the box.

Rajdeep,

FM test screens are only for developers; end users never see it. Why do you care whether it shows a check box or a field with a width of 1 char? Instead of checking a box, you would type X in it.

What do you REALLY want to accomplish?
