Hi,

Text elements are language independent, if we want to run our program in any other language except in which it is created, the text element will automatically take the system language and convert the text in that respective language.

hai

micr s,

Text elements are stored separately from the program in language-specific text-pools.Text pools are created in Your program by goto menu item GOTO -> Text elements in the report programming interface.

you can create , maintain and translate text elements for you program.Text elements are displayed in logon language only.

Text elements are used:

List and column headers that appear in ABAP lists

Selection texts on selection screens

Text symbols that you use with the WRITE statement.

_Advantages:_

1. we can give more meaningful description for text

elements.

2. You can create and maintain text elements without having

to change the source code of your program.

3. Programs should be fully meaningful.

4. You can easily Copying and translating the text elements ,

wherever required.

5. Programs wull be fully multilingual means tranlate from one language to another.

Reward marks , if useful
