F4 Help To Populate Characteristic Value

681 Views

Hi Everyone,

Compliments of the season.

I am currently working on EH&S and have a requirement which seems rather straight forward, yet, for some reason, I can not solve it.

I have a characteristic value on one of my screens, which initially will be empty. When I press F4 on that field, I need to open a table for Display/Maintenance. The table will have a unique number as the key field, and two or three additional fields, that the user will maintain.

When the maintenance is done, the user saves the table maintenance, and the unique number needs to be passed back to the characteristic field.

When pressing the F4 on the same field again, the program will take the unique number that is in the field, and find the matching record in the table, so that the user can make additional edits.

Please give me some pointers in the right direction.

I have used the calender pop-up function module as a sample of selecting a value and passing it back to the characteristic field.
