Hi,

Report screen has lot of limitations.

<b>Limitations:</b>

1. You cant have More than one ALV on output.

2. Cant have table control

3. Layout design is not possible i.e Cant place textboxes etc as per your layout

4. Buttons cant be placed on screen. Will always be on top

Above limitations are overcomed in Screen painter.

Best regards,

Hi,

In general we use selection screen. In module pool applications use screen painter.

Hi ajay singh,

For designing a selection screen U need to write more code. Even when U design a selection screen, in the back end it generates screen 1000. The module pool program is like a tool where U can drag drop different fields, buttons, table controls,containers etc. All this is not posiible in selection screen and for those possible also we need to write a lot of code to achieve this.
