Deactivate operators in search help

Former Member

Hi all,

I am using a search help exit to search data on the db. Due to the data-model, it does not make sense for my particular problem to allow all search operators. Basically I want to avoid that the user can choose any other operator than "=", and exclude explicitely all other operators, such as ">". Any ideas?

Thanks

Simon

Hi,

If you already use a search help exit, then you can define the search help to always display the dialog box for value restriction (dialog type C), and implement the SELECT step to validate or change the SHLP-SELOPT range table (display an error message or change automatically to =).

Best regards,

Sandra
