Uploading Material Long Text (header)

Former Member — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 11:25:20 GMT

Hi,

We are planning to upload material long text data (header) using CREATE_TEXT. My question is, does it have a limitation in terms of number of lines or characters?

We plan to load at least 2000 characters. Please let me know if this is doable in the material long text. thank you.

name = p_name

object = p_object1

ARCHIVE_HANDLE = 0
LOCAL_CAT = ' '

tables

lines = p_line1

EXCEPTIONS
ID = 1
LANGUAGE = 2
NAME = 3
NOT_FOUND = 4
OBJECT = 5
REFERENCE_CHECK = 6
WRONG_ACCESS_TO_ARCHIVE = 7
OTHERS = 8

if sy-subrc <> 0.
