Hi,

Just enter into the Program through Transaction Code SE38 and choose Goto->Text Elements->Text Symbols.

I hope this might help you to find out the Word assigned to a text symbol.

check out this program

RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN which will help you to implement this search programatically

Raja,

Program RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN is giving the line number. But what i need is the exact position including the column number. Is that possible?

Thanks&Regards,

try this.

data: report_pg type SY-REPID ,

rpt_source type standard table of D022S .

REFRESH rpt_source .

move: <rpt name> to report_pg .

READ REPORT report_pg INTO rpt_source .

now do a search/find in rpt_source.

Regards

Raja

HI,

Use the standard program : RSRSCAN1 for searching the string in any ABAP programs.

If you want to search hard coded text in custome programs,Then enter Z* in the program parameter and enter the hard coded string in "Find string parameter".

Hope this will be helpful.

Go to SE38 in menu Utilities -> Find in source code or Use program SAPLS_SEARCH.

Just do "Program~~>Check~~>Extended Program Check". Check all the boxes and execute. It will tell you all those literals which are hardcoded like this with a warning saying that they may not be translated. You don't need to do anything else.

Hi,

Please execute the SLIN T-code for your program and check(tick) the parameter 'Character Strings' and execute. You will be able to find all the Hard-coded values under the 'Messages' Column of the row Character strings.
