I there a way to remove this?

Thanks

if you are talking of characters like ##

then you are using probably a text in stream moide tho for this FM you need the text in ITF format.

The text which you are creating is not containg any " ".Just check it once again.

Use 'SAVE_TEXT' instead of 'CREATE_TEXT'.

well ITF format is the format in which texts are when you e.G. use FM read_text.

means an internal table with a column for the text of max 132 width and a column of width 2 for paragraph formats.

Stream text is the format in which you e.G. get a text from a text_edit_control with the method get_text_as_stream.

there are 2 FM´s to convert forth and back

CONVERT_ITF_TO_STREAM_TEXT

CONVERT_STREAM_TO_ITF_TEXT

hi,

You can Use SAVE_TEXT instead of CREATE_TEXT.

This will Create the text if is not present.
