Selection-screen comment.....?`

Hi All,
I need explanation for the following statement
       SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 1(15) TEXT-001.
What does 1 and 15 mean in the above statement?
Regards
Dnyanesh

Hai Go through the following Document
SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT fmt name.
Additions
1. ... FOR TABLE dbtab
2. ... FOR FIELD f
3. ... MODIF ID mod
4. ... ID id
Effect
Generates a comment on the selection screen. For the name name , there are two options:
name takes the form TEXT-xxx where xxx is a three-character name for a text symbol. In this case, the contents of the text symbol are displayed at runtime, i.e. the text cannot be changed dynamically. name is another eight-character name. Here, you create a field with the name name in the length specified in the format fmt< /> and it is then generated as an output field on the selection screen. The contents of these comments must therefore be set at runtime (e.g. at INITIALIZATION or - in the case of comments in the database include program DBldbSEL - in the routine INIT of the database program SAPDBldb . They can also be changed when the selection screen is being processed.
Note
The field name is generated automatically and so cannot be defined with DATA .
With comments, you must always specify a format fmt (see variant ULINE ).
Note
You must program a new line yourself via the format fmt .
Addition 1
... FOR TABLE dbtab
Note
See variation 3 (SELECTION-SCREEN SKIP).
Addition 2
... FOR FIELD f
Effect
Since the comment is assigned to a parameteror a select-option , the help display shows the documentation of the reference field if this parameter or selection option.
In addition, the comment is suppressed if the reference object was set to 'invisible' via a selection variant.
Note
In database access routines, the comment is generated whenever the reference field is output. Therefore, you should not use the addition FOR TABLE with this variant.
Example
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.
  SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 10(20) TEXT-001
                   FOR FIELD PARM.
  SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION POS_LOW.
  PARAMETERS PARM LIKE SAPLANE-PLANETYPE.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.
This code displays a 20-byte long comment followed by the parameter at the normal position ( POS_LOW ) on the same line. If the user presses F1 for both objects, the documentation of SAPLANE-PLANETYPE is displayed.
Addition 3
... MODIF ID mod
Addition 4
... ID id

  • ABAP Query Selection Screen Comment

    Hi,
      I want to display some text (just text) on Selection Screen of an abap query. If this was a regular abap program I could have simply used "SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT... " and that would have been enough. But since I dont seem to have access to Initialize event I cant use this option.
    1.  Is there some way I can write code which will be executed in the initialize event of the abap query
    2. Is there some other way for us to just display comment (without any selection field) on the selection screen of abap query.

    Hi Saquib,
    Is the navigation correct ? I dont see any onfoset anywhere on se38 editor. Can you eloborate please.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Selection screen COMMENT font

    Hello,
    In a screen I have a SELECTION-SCREEN line which contains a comment, followed by a PARAMETER, followed by another comment, followed by a PARAMETER.
    Here is the example code:
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.
    SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 1(14) text-s01 FOR FIELD p_1.
    SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION 33.
    PARAMETERS: p_1 LIKE sy-uzeit DEFAULT '000001'.
    SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 52(3) text-s02 FOR FIELD p_2.
    SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION 58.
    PARAMETERS: p_2 LIKE sy-uzeit DEFUALT '240000'.
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.
    For some reason the second COMMENT is showing with a different font. Can anyone help me understand why?
    Thank you,
    Nuno Silva

    Hi
    I test it on my system and noticed the same behavior.
    text-s01 = 'TOX'
    text-s02 = 'TOX'
    We can notice differences between the O and X.
    No idea why.
    That is SAP
    If you found a solution, please post it.

  • Trailing space when using SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT

    Hi All,
    I need to display a continuous text (length :130) in selection screen. I am trying with SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT option and i m aware that we can display max of 79 characters. So i split the text into length: 70 & 60 and coded as below
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF LINE.
    SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 1(70) text-001.
    SELECTION-SCREEN POSITION 73.
    SELECTION-SCREEN COMMENT 73(60) text-002.
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF LINE.
    Problem is: After displaying first text (text-001), there is a gap of 10-15 characters, then second text starts (text-002). I mean, there is a trailing space.
    If i give all text-001 in CAPS, then there is no trailing space. But i dont need to display the text in CAPS.
    Do i need to proceed in any other way?, please provide your inputs
    Vinoth

    Your SAPgui to use a proportional font for texts and descriptions (where "i" is much shorter than "W") when it use a non-proportional for input fields. But it use this non-proportional font for input fields even if input is not allowed.
    Try this sample to solve your problem. (But your text will be in a box)
    REPORT zfontst.
