Dropdown box not showing up for field w/attached search help

Hi.  I've created a search help for a data element and I know that the search help is working on the selection screen. 
The search help values come up if I hit F4 but when I click into the field on the selection screen no drop-down box appears to the right of it (so the users don't know that a search help is even available).
Has anyone seen this before?

Hi Rich,
I tried closing all sessions and re-logging in.  That did not work.
I also tried regenerating the program.  That did not work.  Very odd.
F4 works on the field, just no dropdown box! 
We're running 640.

  • Hi how to attach search help to a field

    hi all,
    how to attach search help to a field.

    hi
    <b>Attaching a search help to a field</b>
    A search help can influence the behavior of a field when the input help is called. The search help must be assigned to the field in order to do this. You have the following options for this assignment:
    Attach search help to a data element / table or structure field / screen field / check table.
    Conventionally search helps are attached to table fields or data elements. We shall see the same.
    <b>Attaching a search help to a table field</b>
    Choose the field name, click on search help tab and
    provide the name of the search help.
    A search help is attached to a field of a table or structure in the maintenance transaction for this table/structure, analogously to attaching to a table. You must assign the interface parameters of the search help to any fields of the table/structure. The search field must be assigned to an EXPORT parameter of the search help at this time.
    Attach the search help to the table field
    The search help ZSTRAVELAG_NAME is therefore directly attached to the field AGENCYNUM of table ZSTRAVELAG.
    <b>Attaching a search help to a data element</b>
    Provide the search help name and the parameter name
    under the further characteristics tab of the data element.
    If the input help of a field is defined by its data element, no further screen fields can be used in the input help.
    Also note that the input F4 help would be available wherever the data element is used.
    <b>Attaching a search help to a screen element</b>
    A search help can be directly assigned to a screen field in two ways.
    The name of the search help must be entered in the Screen Painter in the Attributes for the field in the field Search help.
    The name of the search help can be defined for selection screens in ABAP reports in the PARAMETERS or SELECT-OPTIONS statement directly following the supplement MATCHCODE OBJECT.
    However, input help is only available for this particular screen.
    In this case, the search help is only available for this screen.

  • ABAP query output not showing all output fields

    I added a new field group in an existing query and marked them to display in the output list. When I test the output from SQ01 -> InfoSer Query, the output is what I expect. However, if I execute the query itself, it does not show the additional fields I just created.
    I notice that in the Basic List layout design, the new fields are on a new line and not appended to the same line as the output fields before I did the modifications. I already tried to manipulate the output length and positions, but it didn't help. I turned on the ruler to drag the fields in the desired positions, sometimes it works but not for all the fields. Can someone help me please?

    I figured it out already. The maximum width for the report output is 255 only. Switching from graphical query painter, I got the error that some fields were overlapping. Then I recalculated the starting positions of the fields and adjusted their lengths. 

  • Crystal Reports Cross-Tab Report not showing all available fields

    I am running CR2008 against MS SQL Express.  I have several tables with fields and data in them and can create standard reports to show all the data in all the fields.  However, when I try to create a cross-tab report, only some of the fields appear for me to choose from.
    I created a standard report with all the fields I needed in my cross-tab report and ran a preview.  Everything was there.  I then added a cross-tab object, selected the tables only to find that fields that are in the main report are not showing up for selection in the cross-tab.

    UPDATE:  I exported the entire database from MS SQLExpress to MS Access and I am having the same issues, so it does not appear to be a problem with the database engine and, since the standard tabular reports show the fields, I am at a loss as to why they don't show up in the cross-tab or the Parameter fields.
    I am creating the cross-tab through the Cross-Tab wizard.  Is there maybe a bug in that?  Is there a way to create it otherwise?

  • Calculate result as average in the report not showing average for all

    Hello,
    I have a calculated key figure in the query where its result should show average. I have made a setting for this calculated key figure as:
    1. Calculations tab: Calculate result as "average" and calculate single value as "nothing defined"
    2. Aggreagation tab: exception aggregation: Total and reference char: []
    Now coming to report, BEX it showing correct average for all cells but when i run it in portal few values it is showing correct average but for few it is showing as blank. I exported this to excel then cell shows blank but cell has some values in the custom format and display values when i change the format to general from "format cells" option.
    Please help me in resolving the issue- why portal not showing value for all.
    Thanks,

    SAP note solved the purpose.

  • Do not show dots for 'free' events in the calendar month view

    I wish I could.... not show dots for 'free' events in the calendar month view. For an overview of when I have hard-scheduled events in the calendar it's pretty tedious and slow to go day -by day, and other views... Instead the dot  in the month view... - why does it show even "free" events? Any ideas, tips?
    Thanks!

    Unfortunately there is no option to disable the dots.

    when you opened the shared library with the newer version of iPhoto (iPhoto '11) you were given a warning that your library would be converted and could not be used by older versions - you clicked ok to go ahead - there is no updo available - either upgrade to iphoto '11 of the MBP or load your backup of the iPhoto '09 library on it - older versiopns of i{Photo can not read newer libraries

  • Why does adobe photoshop elements 6.0 not show up for a download choice of putting my photos into my computer, I'm on windows7.  I'm sure it did when I first got my computer.  Could it be that I have lots of other photo software that may be interfering?

    If you open the Organizer and go to Edit>Preferences>Camera or Card Reader, do you have Auto Launch Adobe Photo Downloader on Device Connect checked?
    Try checking that if you don't.

    Did you buy ONLY PPro, or did you buy a suite?
    Did you install the program AND the extra content?

  • Newly Created Branches not showing up for Recruiter in the Requisition.

    Hi,
    We have created Branches as Administrator and the Branches are not showing up for Recruiter when trying to create the requisition. Any suggestion on this will be great help.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    the most common reason for branches not showing up is caused if someone does not use the frontend for administrator but the IMG nodes for creating branches and assigning to companies. This is caused by missing bp role assignment.
    So check the branches in TCODE BP that they have the role for e-recruiting branch assigned. The standard delivey uses bp role RCFBRA but this can be changed in T77S0 RECFA BRARO.
    Furthermore you should check if T77RCFBRANCHCOMP entries are ok.
    Kind regards

    I'm happy you figured it out and just try to keep in mind that not everyone you talk to at support will give the same advice or have the same knowledge. Just like those who contribute to these forums. Sometimes Google is your best friend.
    I agree that Apple could probably make it easier, but as of yet prefer security over freedom. (sound famaliar?)

  • Cs6 bridge not showing thumbnails for raw file

    Just upgraded to CS6
    cs6 bridge not showing thumbnails for raw files.
    Can see thumbnails in CS5.1 bridge  and LR 4.2 which fortunately i did not uninstall.
    Bummer since I am up against a hard deadline.
    Really Sucks

    We can't know. You are not offering any system information or e.g. info about what image files you are working with. Since they do show up in your otehr programs, my assumption would be that you need to switch the Camera Raw engine back to the 2009/2010 version in Photoshop and not use the default new 2012 one. Perhaps your thumbnails will appear then....
