Report Z_STD.

APPEND vw TO v.

vw-key = '2'.

vw-text = 'Feb'.

APPEND vw TO v.

vw-key = '3'.

vw-text = 'Mar'.

APPEND vw TO v.

CALL FUNCTION 'VRM_SET_VALUES'

EXPORTING

id = 'A'

values = v

EXCEPTIONS

id_illegal_name = 1

OTHERS = 2.

Hi,

Whatever way you opt (case1 or case2) you have to define search help at the table level. You cannot define the values for the drop down in the selection screens.

Case1. If you are using the standard SAP fields for definition (Ex: Zmatnr FOR MARA-MATNR) then the drop down will show up as the MATNR field had the search help defined in MARA table.

Case2. If you are using any fields from Z-table then you have to define the check table for the field in Z-table and use the same field in your select options.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any furture questions.

Thanks,

Karuna.
