Hi,

Your req is not very much clear.

But as Far i understood if you want to get the corr values of name and city for some id write the code in PBO event of that screen.

And if you want to catch some user action and then do the processing ,

write the code in PAI event of that screen.

Please reward if it helps.

HI,

This is possible only if the search help is directly assigned to the structure( Table) that you are using to create your screen fields. Also you need to see that the search help you are using has these other fields which you want to populate automatically in their list of Export parameters. If this is not the case my advise is to create a search help copying the existing search help and add these new fileds as export parameters. And then copy the structure that you are using for screen filelds into a new structure and then assign the new search help to this new strucutre and map the export parameters of the search help to corresponding fields of the structure.

Hi,

Add function code for the id.

When the id is filled with a value, the PAI of the screen is called. Within that,

call the function "VRM_SET_VALUES" and call the function "VRM_REFRESH_VALUES" for refreshing the values.

But here you should make the name and city as drop down lists.

For the "VRM_SET_VALUES" function module, you should pass a table, which contains the list of values that should be available in the dropdown.

If you still need information, i will send the sample code.
