Hi,

You need to create and maintain text table. Dont directly use spras in your main table. MAKT is text table of MARA.

Thanks,

Vinod.

Use separate text table for language dependent data.

hi pankaj,

you need to create the text table for your z table. text table will have the key field, language field and description field. tp link the key field with the text , text table will be linked with the z table using foreign key. this means your z table will be the check table of the field and when F4 is pressed then existing key entrie of text table is displayed and explanatory text from text table is displayed in user login language.

hope this helps you.

thanks

Hi Pankaj,

You can seperate the table design. You need to create another table to store all the language dependent texts. This is popularly known as Text Table and will be related to the main table with the help of Foreign Keys. The Keys of the text tables are the same as the main table along with the Language Key as also a key.

Then you can create a help view and create a search help. You can then use that Search help to do some selection. Just scan the forum for a better approaches also.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Samantak.
