hadcoding selection screen text not in text elements

[Former Member]

Hi

Is there any ways to hardcode the selection text into the selection rather then including it in a text element.

Thanks

No. Why would you want to, anyway?

well, theoretically you could by doing your own screen design, but what would be the point - it'd be painful and you wouldn't achieve much. If you're concerned about the appearance when logging in on another language, it's easy enough to write a program that will copy English texts, for example, to the other language in the text pool, if no such text already exists.

Hi,

it's possible to fill the selection texts dinamically in the INITIALIZATION event of you report.

The statement to fill the selection text:

%_<NAME OF PARAMETER/SELECT OPTIONS>_%_app_%-text = 'Text from INITIALIZATION'.

Hereafter an example:

SELECT-OPTIONS: strkorr  FOR w_aux_strkorr ,  "Request
                spgmid   FOR w_aux_pgmid,     "Program ID
                sobject  FOR w_aux_object,    "Object Type
                sobjname FOR w_aux_obj_name.  "Object Name
SELECTION-SCREEN SKIP 1.
PARAMETERS: rfcdes TYPE  rfcdes-rfcdest OBLIGATORY . "Remote Destination

INITIALIZATION.

* Fill Dynamic texts
  %_strkorr_%_app_%-text  = 'Request'.
  %_spgmid_%_app_%-text   = 'Program ID'.
  %_sobject_%_app_%-text  = 'Object Type'.
  %_sobjname_%_app_%-text = 'Object Name'.
  %_rfcdes_%_app_%-text   = 'Remote Dest.'.

Kind Regards.
