hello experts,

Can anyone tell me the differnece between the modal dialog box screen and normal screen in dialog programming. I tried with both types of screens and could not find any difference between them. Can you tell me the actual difference and where it is applicable..

A normal screen occupies a whole GUI window. Modal dialog boxes only cover a part of a GUI window. Their interface elements are also arranged differently. A subscreen is a screen that you can display in a subscreen area on a different screen in the same ABAP program.

reward if it helps u..
