Error while trying to get F4 help for a field mapped to an info object

Question

Hi,
I am getting the following exception while trying to attach a search help to a drop down list box.The field belongs to a table on the BW server which has an explicit search help attached to it.I am getting the following exception:
An exception occurred. This exception is dealt with in more detail below    
. The exception, which is assigned to the class 'CX_BSP_SERVICES_SHLP', was neither            
caught nor passed along using a RAISING clause, in the procedure "_ONCREATE"  "(METHOD)" . Since the caller of the procedure could not have expected this exception to occur, the running program was terminated. The reason for the exception is: The input help is not suitable.                                                  
As I am new to BW server I am unable to find the solution.Please help me out.
Regards

Hi Craig,
I was actually not using the f4 help of the
IF_BSP_SERVICES class. Now I want to implement this as I have got many fields on my page. But I am getting the above mentioned error while doing this. The Code in OnInitialization() is:
data: dataref1 type ref to data.
data:wa_r8t_prog type ZR8T_S_API_PROG_H.
get reference of wa_r8t_prog-ZR8CPRGTY into dataref1.
try.
call method runtime->ddic_utils->get_simple_helpvalues
exporting
data_object_ref = dataref1
changing
helpvalue_tab = t_vallist.
catch cx_bsp_services.
endtry.
But I have a search help attached to 'ZR8T_S_API_PROG_H-ZR8CPRGTY' field
My 'ZR8T_S_API_PROG_H' structure definition is as follows:
.INCLUDE     ZR8T_REBATE_PROG          0     0     Rebate Program
ZR8CPRGID     /BIC/OIZR8CPRGID     CHAR     32     0     Rebate Program ID
COMP_CODE     /BI0/OICOMP_CODE     CHAR     4     0     Company Code
ZR8CPRGTY     /BIC/OIZR8CPRGTY     CHAR     5     0     Program type
Can I get f4 help from search help exits or do I have to use only value tables?
