search help exit problem - replacing selection

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have to replace the elementary search help IFLMC

in the collective search help IFLM.

I used "Append Search help" to create my search help.

I have to replace the whole selection of the search help.

I created a search help exit - how can I replace the

<b>whole</b> selection and not only a sincle field??

Thanks.

Promise to award points...

hi

append search help is the normal way of doing some modification to the existing search help.

as you say that you wanna replace the enire selection,i would advice you to create a custom

search help in this case.Because there may be some transaction which may make use of this search

help.You should think about that impact also while doing modification/enhancement to any SAP Objects.

Dear Abdul,

I did create a custom search help.

My problem is that when creating the search help exit of the custom search help (complicated selection) I got stuck.

Can you please assist my with creating a search help exit that replace the whole selection?

Thanks a lot.

Ruthie.

Dear Abdul,

I am developing a search help exit because the selection

is complicated so I can't use a help view and I must use the exit.

Do you have experience with the function F4UT_RESULTS_MAP?

Thanks for all your help.

Ruthie.
