The data will be stored in one big string however you need to write routine to distribute this in lines (say 40 words) in the dynpro.

You should examine these DB tables by SAP since they store the text data:

SOFFCONT1

HRP1002( Reference to text data).

Hi,

1) For displaying.

Use the text editor control to display the data..Check the demo program RSDEMO_DRAG_DROP_EDIT_TREE on how to create a text editor control.

2) For saving.

You can create a text object / text ID in SE75..Then use SAVE_TEXT & READ_TEXT to save the text.

Create a new table to store the text..

Thanks
