Changing Field Label length for Data Element using ABAP code.

Former Member — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 13:44:44 GMT

Hi Experts,

We have a scenario where we have to update the maximum length of the various Field Labels (Short, Medium, Long..) for a Data Element using ABAP code.

Does anyone know how to do this ? Is there a Function Module available for this purpose ?

Appreciate your valuable inputs.

Hi ,

Use the view

DD03M

Give

TABNAME as table name,

DDLANGUAGE = EN / sy-langu

and order by position. (for correct sequencing)

You will get description of the fields (short,medium, long etc). You will also get the length and other details.

Thanks for the suggestion. We found a function module to update the maximum length of the Field Label.

Hi Uday,

Can you share the function module name?

And where did you use it ?
