Hi Balu ,

Text elements are used to store text , the basic purpose of using this is that the same program can be run in diffrent languages and so the titles/headers must be in the language the program is execued , if you hardcode it in the program this will not work , so we use a text elemnt and the system selects the language for the text element based on the language in which the user has logged in.

You can translate a text element by using the option in the menu

Goto--> Translation.

They are useful when the program is used in other languages.

So that they are automatically converted to that language.

So define the texts in the text elements and use their ID's like (TXT-05) in the code

don't sue the complete texts in the program.

reward if sueful
