Hi abapers,

Is it possible to create a serach help programitically say by using FM

F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST in a se38 program

and then attaching it to a field of a custom z table ?

u can call

CALL FUNCTION 'DYNP_VALUES_READ' to collect the tb_dynpfields from dynpfields under the tables section of FM.This way you read dynamically the value of one field say wf_field2.

Using tb_dynpfields-fieldvalue you can fetch the required values from the data base that u wanna use in the search help.

then call the FM.

F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST, using those values..Your search help will come bases on the entries of the other field wf_field2

That will help u out

Hi,

try like this...

             FROM ysafe_stk_ins AS a
             INNER JOIN makt AS b
             ON a~matnr = b~matnr
             WHERE a~werks EQ ysafe_stk_ins-werks.

Hi,

also you can use the extension matchcode object for parameters and select-options for creating search helps for the particular screen fields( if you are talking about creating about selection-screen fields)
