Issue in populating search help value back to selection screen parameter

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I have created a search help (not with match code) for a date field in the selection screen, for that i have to filter some values and i did well.

but in the populated search help list i have 5 date fields, user can select any date (given 5 date columns) from the search help...

My search help populated table is like this ---

CCode | Year | period | Date 1 | Date 2 | Date 3 | Date 4 | Date 5 |

user can select any date from Date 1 to Date 5 which should populate selection screen parameter : p_date.

Please help on this.

Thanks

hi Kishore,

     Since all the date entries are in a single line, the requirements is to fetch the value based on the date column that user has selected. I am afraid we can not really determine which column was selected in the search help output. All that we can get is the row number which user selected and process the respective data.

Hope this helps,

Not the standard behavior of a search help, they are intended to return the specified export parameter(s) from the line selected.

You could try to use a search help exit to manage the display of the list, so in one short dynpro/program you will display the selected records and manage the column/cell selected (double-click) to fill export parameter ?
