All,

This is my requirement.

We have over 780 custom reports in SAP ECC 6 box. All reports are generated for language English. ( Selection Text and Text elements are only in English ). Now we wanted to use same reports for German. But If we login into German and run reports, all selection text and text elements showing blank.

So our requirement is to create utility by giving the report name as input it should take all Enligsh text into German as same.

For Example : for selection option S_MATNR having "Material" in English, and it should copied into German as "Material"

Please give inputs is there any function module or class we can use ?

There is no program which copy this autom.

But if you make a double click an DE, you can set language EN in the two fields for language and so all missing texts in DE, will shown in EN then.

Hi,

If your request is restricted to ABAP textpool only, you could try to create a simple report which uses the "READ TEXTPOOL" in the source language and then performs an "INSERT TEXTPOOL" into the target language...

Let us know if it works

Andrea
