Hi Sasi,

Syntax for the same.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON HELP-REQUEST FOR p_carr_2.

CALL SCREEN 100 STARTING AT 10 5

ENDING AT 60 10.

For more details check the examples in ABAPDOCU.

Cheers

Sunny

I think the easiest way is to use a dictionary defined field on your screen and the dictionary documentation will be automatically picked up. i.e. don't use an internally defined data variable such as w_my_field, use ztable-zmyfield instead and have the doco in se11.

Hi Sasi,

Which particular field are you trying to show the help for? In case its a field from yor Z table, you can create the text for the field at the <b>Data Element Level</b>. This gets called automatically when you press F1 on the screen. In case its a standard field, then too the documentation will show automatically if it has been defined in standard SAP. All you need to ensure is that the variable attached tot he field is derived from the Data Element where the documentation has been defined.

Otherwise you can use the following method:

1) Create standard text in SO10.

2) Read this text into and internal table using FM READ_TEXT.

3) Display this information on a screen and call that screen in your POH Module specifying Height and Width parameters.

Please let me know in case you need any further information.

Regards,

Madhur

NB: Please so award points if found helpful.

The most easy way to create F1 help is from Data element. Make F1 help on the data element of that Field.

1. Go to SE11.

2. Write the data element name in Data type.

3. open in change mode.

4. click on Documentation.

5. Write Your Text there.
