Dynamic Search Help

Hi Everyone,

I've searched around for an answer to this, but I could not find something specific, so I would like to ask a question on this.

Basically, I have a table control for which I have numerous different fields. To each of these fields, I want to assign a search help dynamically (depending on what content is selected by the user via sm31 i.e. if field A1 and A2 selected for display then assign dynamically).

I have a global variable in my program for each search help e.g srch_1, srch_2, srch_3. I input this global variable in the screen painter - into the field attribute - search help - as :srch_1. In the program I assign the relevant search help to each global field which in turn sets the search help for each field on this screen. This is working fine and doing F4 pop-ups the applicable search help.

However, when I select a value from the search help it is not transferring into the table field which remains blank. The field is set for input with no references to output only so i thought this should work. Am i missing something program wise to make this work ?

I would appreciate greatly any suggestions on this issue. Thanks for your time.

Regards

Damien

I have coded further fields in the table control and the search helps are working fine for Company Code & PO Number. However the one for G/L Account C_SAKNR doesnt work.

Maybe this is something strange with this search help ?

it turns out C_SAKNR is unsuitable. GL_ACCT_SAKNR works fine.
