Hi Saurav,

Following are the steps for creatin text edit control.

1. Create custom control on screen(CUST_CTRL1 in example)

2. Declare 2 objects in program for text edit and custom container.

DATA:

CUST_CTRL1 TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_CUSTOM_CONTAINER,

TEDIT TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT.

3. Initialize these objects in PBO

IF CUST_CTRL1 IS INITIAL.

CREATE OBJECT CUST_CTRL1

EXPORTING

CONTAINER_NAME = 'CUST_CTRL1'.

CREATE OBJECT TEDIT

EXPORTING

PARENT = CUST_CTRL1

.

Regards,

Komal.
