HI,

Thanks for the reply...

I have gone through the example that you have sent. But none of it speaks about F4 Help for File(File Dialog). i Want File Dialog when i click on a push button on the WD ABAP Application (Similar to CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_OPEN_DIALOG).. for this i need a method which could pop me up with the file dialog.

Thanks

Mahesh
