dropdown list with multiple selections

[Former Member]

I need to create a dropdown list in a selection screen and allow the user to select more than one option. Can this be done. I know how to use VRM_SET_VALUES to create a dropdown but it restricts me to selecting only one value. The user should be able to select multiple values. Thank you.

Hi Megan Flores,

Drop down list can enable you to select only one value. If you have a requirement like selecting multiple values , then you will have to go for checkboxes.

Thanks.

Hi,

You might have not refershed and cleared your values after the first list do that will resolve your problem.

Check the below sample code.

Type-pools: vrm.

Data: param type vrm_id,

values type vrm_values,

value like line of values.

parameters: p1 as listbox visible length 20 modif id one.

at selection-screen output.

param = 'p1'.

value-key = '1'.

value-text = 'VENKAT'.

append value to values.

value-key = '2'.

value-text = 'REDDY'.

append value to values.

CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'

EXPORTING

ID = PARAM

VALUES = VALUES

EXCEPTIONS

ID_ILLEGAL_NAME = 1

OTHERS = 2

.

Here i will be getting the dropdown with Venkat and Reddy two list.

Cheers!!

Hi Megan,

You cannot get multiple selection in dropdown(List Box) using VRM_SET_VALUES.
