Use 'Save_text' Function module for saving.

You need to use a TEXT EDIT control (CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT) and place that in the container. There are GET / SET methods for this control using which you can place and get the text in the control.

Once you get the text in the control using GET_TEXT_ASR3TRABLE, pass that text to the SAVE_TEXT and follow it up by COMMIT_TEXT.

The following blog talks about this in detail.

Hi Kaki,

Check this sample Module pool program.

use this code and enter your text , and then get the text as internal table and then use SAVE_TEXT Fm to save it. pass the appropriate parameters.

Hi Vijay,

Thanks for the good example.

Iam able to get the data into container from gt_text.

But how to get the text data(container data) into internal table? So that i can pass itab into Save text FM.

What i need to consider in PAI?

Thanks

kaki

Hello Kaki,

Adding to Vijay's Example

use method,

CALL METHOD txt->get_text_as_r3table

importing

table = gt_text[].

Naimesh

Hi Kaki,

as suggested by Naimesh you can call the method get_text_as_r3table and the internal table will have the text , use the text table and pass it to the FM save_text.
