Drop Downl list box using model binding

[shiva_suvarna]

Hi friends

I observed one thing that for drop down list box if we set the attribte 'helpValues' using Model Data Binding. Then the list is showing if the search help assigned to field or data element contains only 2 fields.

For example in SFLIGHT table drop down list box shows for 'CARRID' Field not for 'CONNID' .

The same problem for get_simple_helpvalues2() method also.

Is it right ? or Wrong?

That is a limitation of those methods that I have observed as well.

Recently I picked through the code of get_simple_helpvalues2. I am currently using in my Value Help Custom Extension (along with the BAPI for HELP_VALUES). I wanted something simpler to use than the BAPI, but with more functionality than get_simple_helpvalues2. I used some of the code from get_simple_helpvalues2 and extended it to support any elementary search help (it works for both CARRID and CONNID).

I used calls to DD_SHLP_GET_HELPMETHOD and DD_SHLP_GET_HELPVALUES. The end result is quite a bit of code, but once completed very easy to reuse. I hope to update the example I have on SDN for Value Help with this additional solution, but I have been quite busy trying to get ready for TechED. Also I have a few bugs left to work out in my method.
