How to maximise the length of the Parameter text on Selection screen

[Former Member]

Hello,

I am putting the text in the selection screen for a Parameter.

Its text is long and it is not letting me to put the whole text in Text Symbol.

In the report

When I click on GOto--> Text Elements --> Selection Texts

I am sure there is a way we can maximise this...

ANy suggestions will be apprecaiated.

you should be able to use the code just by copy -paste .

"Comment" is part of SAP command.

4(20) => It means start from position 4 and show text of length 20 characters .

Instead of displaying varaiable g_text /, you can use any text element

Hi,

You can refer the standard SAP help by pressing F1 on keywords in SE38, that will provide you the entire syntax and usage.

COMMET Statment creates an output field on the current selection screen and enters the content of text in this field. In text, either the name of the text symbol of the program can be specified in the form text-###, where ### is the three-digit ID for the text symbol, or a user-defined name with a maximum of eight characters. If a user-defined name is entered, the runtime environment generates a global variable of the same name with type c and length 83. If the specified text symbol is not found, no text is entered in the output field.

Hi,

What is the length of your text ? Is this an input field or just some text that you want to display?

May be you can split it into multiple lines if it's not an input field. But if its an input field, you cannot do much about it. The visible lenght will be standard.

Hi,

Use this,

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK B2 WITH FRAME.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.

PARAMETERS : BOTH RADIOBUTTON GROUP RG1.

SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 4(40) text-001.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.

PARAMETERS : EXICLASS RADIOBUTTON GROUP RG1.

SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 4(40) text-001.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK B2.

In text symbols

text-001 - BOTH Existing

text-002 - Non-existing Classifications

Thanks,
