Calendar Control

[former_member720137]

Hi

We have a requirement wherein we want to have year scrolling , currently we have implemented a freely programmable help.

In ABAP calender control , we can change the year directly. Can we implement ABAP calender control ( class CL_GUI_CALENDAR ) in WebDynpro ABAP?

Thanks

You can not use any of the CL_GUI_* classes within Web Dynpro ABAP. They are designed for the SAPGUI and use a completely different technology.

I also suggest using the DateNavigator. There is a property of the dateNavigator called startsWith. You can set the starting date. You can build some controls and logic around the dateNavigator to allow people to jump to a certain year by setting the startsWith property.

You just need some UI element that lets you choose the field - input, ddlb, etc. Why is the DDLB not acceptable? Perhaps an input field would be better becuase it would allow for easier direct input of the year?

Hi puneet,

Refer the standard webdynpro component : WDR_TEST_EVENTS --> check the view date navigator.

Is there any way by which we can directly changet the year in date navigator... like current year is 2009 and if i want to go to say 2050, i have to pass through all the months... is there any way i can directly change the year, as a user.......

Hi

We have used Date Navigator but it doesnt allow to change the year ( say e.g from 2000 to 1984 ).
