Hi Vijay,

1) to get your type field to give a list of database values when you hit the dropdown, define it in the data dictionary with a foreign key of the table containing the value list.

2) To get your field to be display only initially, and then open for input after the pushbutton is pressed you need to do a couple of things. In the PBO you need a module to conditionally set the attributes of the field. In the PAI you need a user command module to set the attribute when the pushbutton is pressed.

define a global field: V_OPEN_TYPE(1) type c. "space = off, X = on

in the layout, for your field 'type', put a value in one of the groups eg in Group1 put '001'.

in the menu painter, give your pushbutton a fcode eg 'NEW'. You also need a save button with a fcode eg 'SAVE'.

then in the PBO have a module SET_SCREEN_100.

module set_screen_100.

if v_open_type = space.

loop at screen.

check screen-group1 = '001'.

screen-input = '0'.

modify screen.

endloop.

else.

loop at screen.

check screen-group1 = '001'.

screen-input = '1'.

modify screen.

endloop.

endif.

endmodule.

In the pai you need a user command module

MODULE USER_COMMAND_100.

CASE SY-UCOMM.

WHEN 'NEW'.

V_OPEN_TYPE = 'X'.

WHEN 'SAVE'.

update table set field type = type. "modify this statement as appropriate for your table and field definitions.

ENDCASE.

ENDMODULE.

I'd also set it up such that the save icon was only active once the NEW button was pressed. You can do this in the PBO where you set the pf-status by excluding the ucomm conditionally.

module set_status_100.

data: i_ucomm like sy-ucomm occurs 0 with header line.

clear i_ucomm[].

if v_open_type = space.

APPEND 'SAVE' TO i_ucomm.

endif.

set pf-status 'STATUS' excluding i_ucomm.

endmodule

Your flow logic should then look something like this:

PBO

MODULE SET_STatus_100.

module set_screen_100.

PAI

module user_command_100.

Hi Vijay,

while giving i/o field in Dialog Programming, check that input not required field.

Thn while declaring that input field in the ABAP Editor assign some MODIF ID for that.Thn while writing PAI,U write the code for changing the screen display.

Hope it Helps.

Hi,

First of all , in the PBO event of your sceen, perform following thing.

if sy-ucomm ne 'NEW'. (Where NEW is the fcode you have assigned to your pushbutton)

loop at screen.

if screen-name = '<name.>'.

screen-active = 0. (or 1. just check the value to deactivate the field. i cant remember).

modify screen.

endif.

This will show the field in inactive mode initially.

And in the PAI event,

case sy-ucomm.

when 'NEW'.

do nothing (the field will be automatically in editable mode)

when 'SAVE'. (you need to activate this through PF status).

update the database.

endcase.

Make sure your field is in both input / output mode when you design your screen. Assign F4 help to your field so that you are able to see the database value even in the inactive mode.

I hope this helps.

Revert if you want still detailed explanation clearly stating what is missing.
