Hi,

For having a text when you place the cursor on the field then use the property tooltip of that particular field .For the tooltip give the text.

Hi Raju,

Most of the UI elements has the option like "Tooltip". You can make use of it. You can define your own texts to the tooltip. So when the cursor moved near to that field it will shows the tool tip text.

If you want show the description when click the question mark, Then you can use Button UI element.

Create one button without text and assign the Symbol what ever you want like i or ?.

Then create one window[w2] and view[V2]. In the view define one textview and assign the decription for your field.

Then emped that view[v2] into your second window[w2].

Come to first view, In that button event handler write the code to call the window[w2] using create window of the Interface IF_WD_WINDOW.

So whwn ever the button displayed it will call your window[w2] and will displays the view[v2].

Thanks.
