Hi,

I think the best way is using FM SAVE_TEXT.

A tip, to get the right parameter.

--> Go to mm02 on your material text, <u>in plain page mode</u>.

An then, via the menu you do :

- GO TO

- Header

And you get the input parameters :

Text name, Text id, Text object, language.

Text Name       MATERIAL12                         
Language        EN                               
Text ID         GRUN    * Basic data text             
Text object     MATERIAL   * Material texts, pur./s

Setup the Insert Mode if you want to change existing text.

Hope this helps.

Erwan.

I suggest you to take a look in SE37 at the FM documentation ( in English )

Extract : "The function module writes a text module to the text file or text memory, depending on the specific text object.

The module can be used to change existing texts and to create new texts. If it is clear that it is a new text, this can be specified via the parameter INSERT."
