Hi people!,

Some days ago, i had formated my pc, and now, after reinstall the netweaver, the sap editor suggest how to autocomplete the commands -ok- but if i want to select the word suggested, i have to do it JUST with TAB key.

I want to do it with ENTER key, as in the past.. and looking for this option, i couldn't find it in Utilities/Settings.

Can anybody tell me when this option is??!!

Thanks in advance!!

Hi pam,

as far as I remember that was in the first edition of the new editor that you could use ENTER for code completion. Since 5 years or so I never used anything except TAB.

I think you can not change it.

I do not understand what kind of stuff smart alecs are talking about - probably they never tried or proved what they are talking about.

Regards,

Clemens

just at the bottom right corner of your se38 abap editor, there would be yellowish button( above the corner info panel ), click this button, goto auto complete tab, select the check box for enter button.
