Hi Madan,

The text element are language dependent.. the report you copied was in German so it had text elements in German..

Do one thing.. go to the text element maintenance.. and in the utilities u will get Translation..

In that, you will get all text elements used in the program along with the selection texts.. in the translation field, write the text in english, save and activate..

Thanks and Best Regards,

Vikas Bittera.

Text elements, selection texts are Language dependent. You have to maintain text elements in what ever languages you want. Go to text elements select GOTO in tool bar then Translation. Here your original language is displayed and in which language u need translation has to be entered. Here you have to maintain the translations. You can explicitly maintain in SE63 also.
