Hi, search help -- restricted value

Question

hi
there is already a search help for a field in one of the transaction codes in fico. i think this search help is attached in code by writing match code syntax.
but my prob is that this search help for the particular field shows 10 char and out of this 10 char i need to show only 5 char from 3 to 7 when the user press f4.
eg. 1234567890 i need to show 34567 only without changing the se38 code.
when user press f4 he gets lots of records and all records should show 5 char only, now it is showing 10 char.
is it possible, if yes, then how???
pl can anybody help me.
thanx

Hi rocky,
You can do like this.
Use the below logic with your table, you will get as desired,
DATA: BEGIN OF gt_matnr OCCURS 0,
      matnr TYPE mara-matnr,
      END OF gt_matnr,
      BEGIN OF gt_list OCCURS 0,
      field1(5) TYPE c,
      END OF gt_list.
PARAMETERS: p_matnr TYPE mara-matnr.
INITIALIZATION.
  SELECT matnr
    FROM mara
    INTO TABLE gt_matnr.
  LOOP AT gt_matnr.
  gt_list-field1 = gt_matnr(5).
  APPEND gt_list.
  ENDLOOP.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_matnr.
  CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_WITH_TABLE'
       EXPORTING
            endpos_col   = 30
            endpos_row   = 20
            startpos_col = 10
            startpos_row = 10
            titletext    = 'Select MATNR'
       IMPORTING
            choice       = p_matnr
       TABLES
            valuetab     = gt_list
       EXCEPTIONS
            break_off    = 1
            OTHERS       = 2.
  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
            WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
  ENDIF.
