Custom search help problem - not updating with new selection

[Former Member]

I've developed a screen with several fields that need values passed to a dropdown. I was planning on using :

.
.
.
  header_node_info->set_attribute_value_set(
         name      = 'ITEM_TYPE'
         value_set = it_table ).

I have placed this search help code in the WDOINIT of my MAIN View.

I do see the values in my dropdown on the screen and I can select an entry. However, if I go back in and try to select a different entry, that entry does not populate my field.

any ideas?

In IT_TABLE which you are passing to VALUSET parameer you have VALUE and TEXT attributes.

Make sure each row has different VALUE. Because if the value is same, what ever text you seelct from dropdown you will get the first selected TEXT itself.

How do you update the value ? probably you make some mistake there to get the selected value from DropDown?
