just use the standard data elements for those fields.....

it will automatically populate with values when you use standard dataelement...

or

create a custom search help and add at field level in help/entry tab or add to the data element of the field

Hi,

If you use a standard data element for the table field a search help will automatiocally be assigned to it, to check whether a search help is already assigned to a element you can click on the Entry help/check tab of the table. if you find this statement - Input help implemented with check table, there it means it already has a search help.

If you creating data elements of your own then you need to create a search help in SE11and assign it manually to the field which you want to have an F4 help.

To know how to create a search help visit the below link:

Hi,

as all said..! if u r using standard data element reference to ur field, thn F4 help is going to b attached automically to your table fields..! If u r not using standard data elements and if u created ur own data elements , u have to create SEARCH HELP available in DDIC ( SE11) alnd u need to attach it to the data element in 'FURTHER CHARACTERISTICS' tab..
