try to analyze the function RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS

Function Module RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS cannot be used as most of our

variant content is greater than 45 chars and this FM has

limitation for 45 chars.

so now i am looking for something

<<<<

IMPORT from database vari(va) id 'xx'.

>>>>

so that if i get contents i can modify them and i can EXPORT to the database

Thanks,

Inna

This question was discussed in this forum a few months ago. If you search using the FM name, you may be able to find it.

If I recall correctly, the poster of the other thread had the same problem as you. It mentioned that FM, so that was why I suggested using it as part of the search criteria.
