Hi,

Pass the value to the tooltip field while creating the fieldcatalog for the field that you need to display the tool tip for. If its a standard field ( if it refers to a field from the data dictionary ) then the tool tip will be shown automatically.

Hi,

Adding the tool tip is handled while building the field catalog. All you need to do is , send the 'tool tip text' to the filed tooltip, for that column in the field catalog, like

wa_fieldcat-tooltip = 'Material'.

For the rest of the columns, for which you dont want to see the tool tip, just avoid populating the tooltip field.

Thanks.
