Possible Choices:
1) At the screen level you could do a conversion exit. In the exit you
could read the field you want into an internal table and then parse that
field and compare it to what exists inside your field at that moment.
2) If in fact you need this at the global data element level, do a global
field exit on the field and put your code there to do the validation.
3) In the table you could do a Search help for the field and in the search
help you could do a search help conversion exit.
There is no way to build a foreign key but have the foreign key be just a
length and offset of a portion of an existing field on another table. So,
as you want to do this with without ABAP, the answer is that you cannot do
this.
