Former Member

Hello.

I have created a serchhelp through SE11.

It has one field. It is a character field (CHAR020).

This field is a dictionary field (own created data element).

How can I address this field inside

the serch help exit if I want to relate

to this field in order to say e.g.

-> write: no_ddic-field.

-> or to call a function module.

Regards

Ilhan Ertas

u can associate this search help to a dataelement.

Then suppose there is another field which is of the type of this dataelment...

When in ur program u will use this dictionary field, or a field of the type of this dictionary field,

the search help will appear.

Reward points if the ans helps...

see suppose the search help u have created is zsearch.

Now when u create a dataelement, there is a tab called search help, when u are defining the dataelement. give ZSEARCH there.

Then suppose u crete a field zfield of table ZTAB, which is of the type of this dataelement.

in ur program if u write

parameters : p_fild type ZTAB-zfield.

in the selection screen u will see the outputs.
