Editor typing 'help'

[Former Member]

I have the SAP Netweaver SP12 Trial Version successfully loaded. This is my upgrade from the version that came with the 2002 'ABAP Objects' book.

This version is slightly different. A couple of questions.

First, when I am entering - manually typing, that is - an example program from the book to test. If I am entering the word 'selection-screen', for example. When I type 'se' a little pop-up shows just above my cursor with 'SET SCREEN'. I add the 'l' and it shows 'SELECT'. Add the 'ect' and it show 'SELECT-OPTIONS'. And, add the 'i' and it shows 'SELECTION-SCREEN', which is what I want. My question: Is this only to try to help me to spell things correctly, or is there some key combination that I can use to accept the 'hint' and have it auto-fill the full command?

Second. I have extracted the data and the included example programs. The original installation I made from the CDs included with the 'ABAP Objects' book had almost every piece of code that Mr. Keller & Ms. Krueger put in that book - even pieces of code that didn't actually run yet. I have found some of the code - but is there a way to get all of the example code that is in the book, that is included on the CD with the book?

Hello James,

First, there is no real auto completion yet. Take it as a "hint".

Second, all the examples from the ABAP book should be included already in the system. Try to search for the package "Z_ABAP_BOOK" in the object navigator.
