Restricting Select-options from range 1 to 16

[rahul_1996]

Hi All,

I have a Requirement in which i have to restrict the value in select-option range from 1 to 16. User can't input more than 16 values in select-option range.

Can anyone help me regarding this?

Use AT SELECTION SCREEN ON FIELD for validation regarding number of entries in select option table and give error message for more that 16 entries.

rahul_1996 You code is wrong. It doesn't check that the low value is greater than zero. It also doesn't allow for multiple lines within the select option internal table. It doesn't allow for excluding a range.

For ranges, where you want one entry between two specific values, use two parameters on the same line - one for the high, one for the low, as detailed in this blog concerning dates: https://blogs.sap.com/2014/02/07/dates-and-select-options/

Thanks Matthew, for the answer actually I am new to Abap So i am learning.

I guess that you want to use a very limited version of the powerful "select-options".

So, instead, as Matthew said, you should define 2 fields, one "from" and one "to".

For instance, two fields in the same line:

SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.
  SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT (30) text-s01. " and define the text of text symbol S01
  SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION 32.
  PARAMETERS p_from TYPE i.
  PARAMETERS p_to   TYPE i.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.

See all the explanations in the ABAP documentation.
