Hi...

Use the command DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM <ITAB> COMPARING <FIELD1> <FIELD2>....

<ITAB> - Internal table that is used to hold the search values for the field.

If your field is in the selection screen then add this command in

AT SELECTION-SCREEN on VALUE-REQUEST for <FIELD>

If the field is in the User defined Screen

Then add this code in

PROCESS on VALUE REQUEST Event.
