Hi ganesh,

1. After entering WERKS, and pressing ENTER,

it will display the text for it.

2. just copy paste

3.

REPORT ABC.

parameters : werks like t001w-werks.

parameters : NAME1 like t001w-name1 modif id DIS.

at selection-screen output.

select single name1

into name1

from t001w

where werks = werks.

loop at screen.

if screen-group1 = 'DIS'.

screen-input = 0.

modify screen.

endif.

endloop.

in the screen in general attributes i have those 2 fields

WS_WERKS_INPUT is for input and it is to be mandatory

i have to display a message if user does not enter this field as "Plant is a mandatory field" where shall i include this text.

[gopi_narendra]

You need not write any text for mandatory fields,

if a field is made mandatory, that is handled by SAP itself, u need not explicitly write a error msg for a MANDATORY field

If you are designing your screen for module programming there is a parameter called REQUIRED, you need to select the particular checkbox for the defined field.

If it is for a report you can use the variation OBLIGATORY with the parameter/select-option statement.

Hi ganesh is that waht u wanted? if u r talking abt Dialog Programming, the way i told u is the ONE to make the field mandatory.

if u r talking abt selection screen. use the key word OBLIGATORY

parameters: p_vbeln like vbak-vbeln OBLIGATORY.

PLEASE CLOSE THE THREAD if ur prob is solved
