Search help for material number in table control

[Former Member]

Hi

I have a table which i have generated using table control wizard.

I have used an interal table while creating the table control through wizard.

In this internal table i have field matnr.Now my requirement is to have a search help for this field.

I want a default search help for material as you get one instandard transactions.

In my other i have ip/op field i.e matnr and i have used the field directly from ztable,it has got the search help but since i am using the internal table i am notting getting a search help .

can anyone tell how to assign a search help to my table control material field

Hi

Go to layout of your screen by screen painter, do a double click on field MATNR of table control and assign the search help MAT1.

Hi MAX ,

I HAVE TRIED = AND MAT1 AS YOU SAID .

BOTH OF THEM WORK FINE .

I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION.

WHAT CONVEXIT

AND PARM ID MEAN IN THE ATTRIBUTES.

Do i need to pass anything to these fields.

Thanks

When it design a field of input/output if it uses a dictionary field all its characteristics are used in the screen, in particular:

- Search Help (just as you seen)

- Parameter ID (PARM ID): To store the value in SAP Memory (see the help for SET/GET PARAMETER)

- Convertion Routine for Input/output (CONVEXIT): it's the routine to format the data for input or output. For example ALPHA routine delete the leading zero.

If you use a variable declareted in the program you have to set these chararteritics by yourself.
