READ LONG TEXT FROM EXTERNAL SYSYEM

Former Member — Thu, 27 Apr 2006 10:25:37 GMT

Hello,

I need read the long texts stored in tables STXH & STXL from an external non-SAP system. I need to update an external database which is allocated in a non-SAP system with those texts and I don't know how to read those cluster data because in my external non-SAP system I can't use the FM READ_TEXT.

can somebody help me?

Regards,

Manuel

Hi,

copy the FM READ_TEXT and then create the ZFM , and make it RFC enable use it for your Purpose. in this case you can call it remotely.

Hi,

STXH and STXL are specific to SAP, why would they be present in a non-SAP system and that too in a cluster format.

If you want to read it from a external SAP system, you can write a wrapper for READ_TEXT and call it from the SAP system.

Can you explain in detail, your process?

RFC_READ_TEXT will do it for you.

Thanks for you answer.

The problem is that my database non-sap system can only use SQL. I mean, I can read the sap database but those clusters data are not available, I can read them but they are codificated.

I don't want modify my external database from sap, I need to read the sap database from my external database.

Thanks
