Delete Selection Text Issue

dominic_holdstock — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 10:56:22 GMT

Hello All,

I need to delete a selection text in a programm. The parameter does not exist anymore in the programm, when deleting i get this message:- (Page8 is the parameter)

Delimitation text PAGE8 is an original text and cannot be deleted or renamed

Message no. DS539

I am doing this as part of the manual post-implementation of a SAPNote.

Kind regards

Turning off Modification Assistant also helped me. I seem to run into a number of situations where turning off the Modification Assistant will fix the problem. It never seems to be plain that the Modification Assistant is causing the problem and I often waste a lot of time finding the answer.

Switched Modification Assistant Off worked for me too. Menu Edit --> Modification Operations--> Switch Off Assistant

Cheers,
