Selection Screen help,

Posted on Dec 06, 2005 at 09:03 AM 11 Views

Hai,

I have a report to be downloaded to excel where the file name with the path is being input through a parameter in the selection screen.

How can I attach a F4 help to this selection screen parameter so that when we click it the windows browser opens so that we can navigate to the folder we like and open it instead of typing the path like C:\... etc.

Pls help.

Regards

Binoo

    Hi again,

    1. Some event keyword is missing.

    2. write START-OF-SELECTION

    just before your code (which should get executed on F8)

    Just check ur code once again. The event name

    might be missing.

    regards,

    amit m.

    Hi

    Use this AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_file.

    CALL FUNCTION 'TMP_GUI_FILE_OPEN_DIALOG'

    IMPORTING

    RC = V_RET

    TABLES

    FILE_TABLE = IT_FILE

    EXCEPTIONS

    CNTL_ERROR = 1

    OTHERS = 2.

    IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

    IF V_RET = 1.

    READ TABLE IT_FILE INTO X_FILE INDEX 1.

    IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

    P_PFNAME = X_FILE-PATHNAME.

    ENDIF.

    ENDIF.

    ELSE.

    MESSAGE I002 WITH 'File Error'(006).

    ENDIF.

    Hi Binoo,

    1. This is the easiest way.

    2. use FM

    F4_FILENAME

    3. Suppose ur parameter name is p_file.

    PARAMETERS : p_file LIKE rlgrap-filename OBLIGATORY.

    (Define it as above)

    4. Then Use This Event

    AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_file.

    CLEAR p_file.

    CALL FUNCTION 'F4_FILENAME'

    IMPORTING

    file_name = p_file.

    I have used the same. It works fine.

    Hope it helps.

    Regards,

    Amit M.

    Hi Binoo,

    You can use below function ...

    AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_file.

    FM CALL FUNCTION 'KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4'

    EXPORTING

    program_name = syst-repid

    mask = '*'

    CHANGING

    file_name = p_file

    EXCEPTIONS

    mask_too_long = 1

    OTHERS = 2.

    IF sy-subrc <> 0.

    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

    WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

    ENDIF.

    Regards,

    Raj

      I am getting the browser window, but there is a problem. As soon as I select a file and click open or double cllick it the program is executed automatically, ie before I press execute or F8.
