Hi

steps to create a maintenance view.......

1.Enter the name of the view in the initial screen of the ABAP Dictionary (se11)

2. select object class Views and choose Create. choose the type of the view in the dialog box.select the type Maintenance view.

3.Now comes the maintenance screen for maintenance views appears.Three input areas appear for tables, join conditions and view fields.fil the following

a.Enter a short explanatory text in the field Short text.

b.In Tables, enter the primary tables of the view.

c.If required, include more tables in the view. In a help view you can only include tables which are linked to one another with foreign keys.

Position the cursor on the primary table and choose Relationships. All existing foreign key relationships of the primary table are displayed. Check the foreign keys you require and choose Copy. The secondary tables involved in such a foreign key are included in the view. The join conditions derived from the foreign keys ( Foreign Key Relationship and Join Condition) are displayed.

Also check the foll links.

I think my question was not clear :

1. I have to make certain fields display only

2. generate time and date fields corresponding to the user input automatically.

For this purpose i have to write a maintenance view program.

Let me know how shall a proceed.

Thanx in advance
