Hi Experts,
the screen field value is chinese.
The problem is that I use the type-head search help,the value returned has special characters (</b> is needless). How I do to remove it?

Can you check, if you deactivate the type-ahead feature (SAP GUI settings), that </b> is not returned anymore?
Can you check that it happens with any other search help?
Did you try with the latest SAP GUI?
If it's completely standard, you should look for SAP notes or contact SAP support.

If I deactivate the type-ahead feature,there is no type-ahead prompting ,I never wanted this.
If search help results is english,return values no special characters.
SAP GUI 740 I'm using right now.
Support from sap has been stopped .I can only rely on yourself

And I/we rely on your investigations.
And it happens in all other search helps? In all cases for this seach help.
In my own system, the SAP GUI trace gives this kind of data (MM03, material field):
<833=Automation: CALL METHOD "TypeAheadExport" OF

I see that material appears like <b>544</b>, so I guess it's bold.
In your case, it means it goes too far while selecting the value, so I guess it has to do with determination of length. What SAP backend version do you have, is it Unicode, Blend, MDMP? Please give maximum information (search internet to determine where to search information).
Probably it will be too complex to analyze the issue, and probably it's a bug in SAP GUI. I'm afraid that the only solution left to you is to abandon type-ahead search.
