Hi,

You can use SPLIT to break the content of your field.

SPLIT string AT del INTO p1 p2.

Where string contains the comment value, del is the indicator upto which portion will be splitted and p1 & p2 are variables that will contain the splitted strings.

Hello Anuj ,

I dont think you can have the description of the parameter on 2 lines , may be what you can do is to use comment for the 2nd line .

E.g.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.

SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT (45) text-001 FOR FIELD p_matnr.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.

SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT (45) text-002 FOR FIELD p_matnr.

parameters : p_matnr type mara-matnr.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.

Regards,

Arun
