Hi Piyush

Why don't you delete the entries int the internal table HELP_ITEM11 based on the value given on selection screen.

Hi Ranganath,

Actually in this case there is no selection condition on selection screen, so i am populatinf the entire table. Now if table contains more than 1000 records, so it will be difficult to user to scroll for the require result.So i want to give an option to user to define the maximum hits in F4 help.

Even if there is selection condition on selection screen , ther can be no of records.

Dispay the source code of this function module in Se37.. you will notice that the following is commented out..

CALLCONTROL-MAXRECORDS = 500.

if u want to pass only 200 records to the internal table instead of all records.

deleting lines in your program is probably the only option..

ie

data w_lines type i.

w_lines = lines( itab ).

delete itab from 201 to w_lines.

How are you getting data into HELP_ITEM11?

If it is using a select statement, get it using SELECT...UPTO N ROWS.

Where N will be your max hits.

Hi Rao,

It can be case that i had more than 1000 records for the pass selection conditions.In that case might be user want to define the max hits. In some standard search help, whenever you press f4 help, it will show the relevant records. and alos give the options to define the max hits with some selection condition.

I require the same functionality in my search help.

You may have to create your own screen with Max hit as input.

Add the logic of selection of data in PAI of this screen. Display the selected records using LEAVE TO LIST PROCESSING.

All this will involve time.

Check details of creation of search helps as well. Hope search helps will help. They should have the default functionality of Max hits.
