Double click on the screen of table maintainance generator. It will take you to it's Flow logic, then click on It's layout. Now select the field for which you want to add ur search help and double click on this field to open it's attribute Window and then in 'Search help' field add your search help there. Activate it. your problem is solved..

Hi,

Goto the Table Maintainence and doube click on the screen number and then goto to the element list tab, in that goto the reference tab and give the search help name to the field you want. Do the same for the two screens if you are using two step table maintainence.

Hi,

You can have Process on Value-Request on your screen where the field exist. You can use SE80 to edit the screen of the function group that table maintenance generator created.

1. Edit the screen using SE80.

2. Place a 'process on value-request' at the bottom of the flow logic.

3. Below that, put this line

field fieldname module get_help.

4. Double click on GET_HELP and create an input module pool program.

5. In this module pool, pass the values of the other fields in your screen to the function module that can provide you the list of values

6. Use function module F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST within this module pool to popup the values.

Hi

Yes, you can use that

by attching that like this

Attaching a search help to a field

A search help can influence the behavior of a field when the input help is called. The search help must be assigned to the field in order to do this. You have the following options for this assignment:

Attach search help to a data element / table or structure field / screen field / check table.

Conventionally search helps are attached to table fields or data elements. We shall see the same.

Attaching a search help to a screen element

A search help can be directly assigned to a screen field in two ways.

The name of the search help must be entered in the Screen Painter in the Attributes for the field in the field Search help.

The name of the search help can be defined for selection screens in ABAP reports in the PARAMETERS or SELECT-OPTIONS statement directly following the supplement MATCHCODE OBJECT.

However, input help is only available for this particular screen.

In this case, the search help is only available for this screen.

or if you want to create your won like above mentioned
