Hi,

I have one screen field for output & input based on condition. It's working fine now.

As the normal behaviour of tab-key, focus always goes to the next active field. Here I want the same behaviour for

screen output-field(inactive).

The "active" attribute of a field means it's not displayed when it's '0'. The "output" attribute of a field means it's displayed when it's '1'.

So, "output" doesn't mean "inactive". Could you clarify your question please?

In code, I have set field atribute 'SCREEN-INPUT = 0' to make it output field based on condition.

Tab key is to position on next input field, no way to indicate that tab key should work differently.

Out of curiosity, why do you need to have the tab key go to an output field?

This field has two functionalities. One for manual input and another for search for help 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'. No matter what user input manually but data selected from searh-help must not be altered by user. So I have disabled/enabled this field based on user action.
