Change Type of Screen Element in Report Program

Question

Okay guys, I have been struggling with this the whole day.. someone please help me.
I have a selection screen defined in the selecton-screen of a report program
select-options : so_matnr for mara-matnr,
                 so_ebeln for ekpo-ebeln,
                 so_ebelp for ekpo-ebelp.
Now if I go to SE51 and give the program name and the screen number as 1000 (Default screen for report)
Now go to tab "Element List" --> "General Attributes"
in the column "Type of screen element" everything is considered as "I/O".
*Name*                 *Type of Screen Element*
%_SO_MATNR_%_APP_%-TEXT             I/O
%_SO_MATNR_%_APP_%-OPTI_PUSH     I/O
SO_MATNR-LOW     I/O
%_SO_MATNR_%_APP_%-TO_TEXT     I/O
SO_MATNR-HIGH     I/O
%_SO_MATNR_%_APP_%-VALU_PUSH     Push
%_SO_EBELN_%_APP_%-TEXT     I/O
%_SO_EBELN_%_APP_%-OPTI_PUSH     I/O
SO_EBELN-LOW     I/O
%_SO_EBELN_%_APP_%-TO_TEXT     I/O
SO_EBELN-HIGH     I/O
%_SO_EBELN_%_APP_%-VALU_PUSH     Push
%_SO_EBELP_%_APP_%-TEXT     I/O
%_SO_EBELP_%_APP_%-OPTI_PUSH     I/O
SO_EBELP-LOW     I/O
%_SO_EBELP_%_APP_%-TO_TEXT     I/O
SO_EBELP-HIGH     I/O
Now, my requirement is that I  need to do something at the loop at screen to change the 'I/O' to 'Text' for all the %TEXT% screen fields. Exactly behave like text labels in the dialog program
Now, I don't want to write a dialog program to achieve this. Is there any thing i can do in the report program to achieve it.

Hello,
Try something like this:
INITIALIZATION.
loop at screen.
  if screen-name eq <your field>
    screen-input = 0.
    modify screen.
  endif.
endloop.
The important thing is to do it on INITIALIZATION event
