Hi,

I hope this code will help you:

monthName :-Is value attribute of type string.

ISimpleTypeModifiable myType = wdThis.wdGetAPI().getContext().getModifiableTypeOf("monthName");

// Set allowed values for this data type

IModifiableSimpleValueSet values = myType.getSVServices()

.getModifiableSimpleValueSet();

values.put("0", "January");

values.put("1", "February");

values.put("2", "March");

values.put("3", "April");

values.put("4", "May");

wdContext.currentContextElement().setMonthName("4");

to get the selected value:

1. create an action and add that action to your dropdownbykey.

2. On action write this code:

wdContext.currentContextElement().getMonthName()

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your time and code.

I need the data for dropdown to be fetched from SAP R3 at run time.

Is i am able to follow the same approach as you said for this also.

Hi,

Yes I think you can use this code to populate your dropdown once you get data from r/3 system.
