Hi Experts.

I have seen in one video that while the programmer was coding in a report,

The names of internal tables and fields were being prompt making the coding easier and fast.

I am using SAP Logon 7.2 version for coding, here the same prompting happens for key words(as shown below) but not for internal table names etc.

So how to activate this feature ?

Thanks,

Vishal.

Hi Vishal,

in the lower right corner of your abap editor, there is a small button like this.

There, you have different options, that can make your work easier, which of on is code-completion. There you will find as the last check-box something like non-key values. Check this one and there you go.

BTW - it's worth the effort to have a closer look at the other options there as well.

Best regards - Jörg

Hi Vishal,

just one other tip to consider.

have you tried the code-completion feature on [ctrl]]+[space] yet?

personally i find it much better to us, because it gives better controll.

Vishal,

In my opinion that will make one's coding skills from the syntax perspective,weak.IMHO,during the early years,one should stay away from these kind of shortcuts.Ofcourse,perceptions differ 🙂
