long text in bapi

Former Member — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 10:41:43 GMT

I am trying to save a long text for material. to do this, I have to fill a table of type bapi_mltx.

If I insert one line all works correctluy, but if I try to insert more than one line, other lines are ignored and I can see only the first seem to be read. This is my code.

it_mltx-langu = lang.
  it_mltx-langu_iso = iso_lang.

  " insert first line
  it_mltx-text_line = line1.
  it_mltx-format_col = '*'.
  APPEND it_mltx.

  " insert second line
  it_mltx-text_line = line2.
  it_mltx-format_col = '='.
  APPEND it_mltx.

I follow a precedent hint adding the format_col field with '*' for first line and '=' for following, but it does not work. Can anybody help me please?

thanks

Use Clear after every append.

APPEND it_mltx. CLEAR it_mltx.

Hi,

Use '*' for second line also, not '=' and see weather the second line coming or not.

it_mltx-langu = lang.
  it_mltx-langu_iso = iso_lang.
 
  " insert first line
  it_mltx-text_line = line1.
  it_mltx-format_col = '*'.
  APPEND it_mltx.
 
  " insert second line
  it_mltx-text_line = line2.
  it_mltx-format_col = '*'.                                        " Change here to *
  APPEND it_mltx.

I tried the solutions suggested, but they don't work.

I don't know if it's important, but the bapi I am using to store material data is BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA .
