You can always set the value for SY-LANGU field during runtime and also take a look to SET COUNTRY statement.

Hi,

You can use this code:

DATA: v_lang TYPE tcp0c-langu,

v_cntry TYPE tcp0c-country,

v_mod TYPE tcp0c-modifier.

GET LOCALE LANGUAGE v_lang COUNTRY v_cntry MODIFIER v_mod.

SET LOCALE LANGUAGE 'IT' COUNTRY V_cntry.

YOUR CODE

SET LOCALE LANGUAGE v_lang COUNTRY V_cntry.

Hi,

Many thanks for your quick response, it's partially working...have a look of my code.

SET LOCALE LANGUAGE 'I' COUNTRY 'IT'.

********************************************************+
    submit (g_program_name)
    via selection-screen
    and return.

After the statetmetn SET sy-langu is changed however after the submit the program g_program_name has the original logon language. Any idea?.

Many thanks again.

This is because the SET LOCALE command sets the text environment (i.e. SY-LANGU) for the current internal session only. The SUBMIT .. AND RETURN command executes the called program in a new internal session resetting sy-langu back to login language.
