Read Appropriation Request long text

Former Member — Mon, 21 Aug 2006 07:54:04 GMT

Hi....I need to get the information available in the Appropriation Request long text(Transaction IMA11) into an internal table. The system uses FM - "IREQ_TEXT_CALL" to display the document inside which the FM "READ_TEXT" is being called to get the info into T_LINES table. But, the content of the table does not make any sense. How to get the actual information stored in the different sections of the document. I need this since I have to output the exact content thru forms for printing.

Thanks,

Ram.

Dear Ram,

The function - READ_TEXT is correct function to get the long text of any object.

But this function returns the data lines and the paragraph format. The component 'TDFORMAT' stores the format of the text line in the TABLES parameter LINES.

Use the same paragraph format in the form to get the exact results.

Also you can use the function PRINT_TEXT to print the document in exact format.

Please reward points if helpfull.

Prabhas.

Hi Prabhas...Thanx for the reply.

See...I cannot use the paragraph format as it cannot be determined.

Send your personal mail ID. I will send the details with attachment of the screen shot of the table (LINES). I am not able to paste / attach it here.

Thanks,

Ram.
