Select-options ...as search pattern

[IanStubbings]

Is this construct available in 46B? The help file mentions it but it never syntax checks. Would anyone be able to post some code of it? I wish to assign a specific sarch help to my select option (an elementary search help as part of a collective one defined at data element level).

Thanks

Hi,

Here is the code to attach a search help to a select-options

SELECT-OPTIONS S_MATNR FOR MARA-MATNR MATCHCODE OBJECT MAT1_A.

NB : donot enclose the matcode name within quotes.

Thanks for the help guys but my main question is still unanswered - can you use the AS SEARCH PATTERN construct? It seems not as everything I have seen points to the matchcode object option. I guess I'll just have to rename my search help!

Cheers
