Creating text elements dynamically by program

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Do you know how I can create text symbols or selection texts dynamically by program? (calling a FM or editing a table?)

What's the table for text elements?

Thanks in advance,

Mathieu

Hi

Create a BDC recording using the TCODE: SHDB for the Transaction SE32 and write the code in your program accordingly.

Hope it helps.

Hi,

Not sure of FM. But programically u can do.

Check the statement

INSERT TEXTPOOL PROGRAM FROM TAB LANGUAGE

SY-LANGU.

This creates the text elements in the specifies program and in specified language.

Not only text elements but also list headings u can create.

Check below sample code given by SAP.

DATA: PROGRAM(8) VALUE 'PROGRAM',
      TAB LIKE TEXTPOOL OCCURS 50 WITH HEADER LINE.

TAB-ID = 'T'. TAB-KEY = SPACE.  TAB-ENTRY = 'Sales'.
APPEND TAB.
TAB-ID = 'I'. TAB-KEY = '200'.  TAB-ENTRY = 'Tax'.
APPEND TAB.
TAB-ID = 'H'. TAB-KEY = '001'.  TAB-ENTRY = 'Name   Age'.
APPEND TAB.
TAB-ID = 'S'. TAB-KEY = 'CUST'. TAB-ENTRY = 'Customer'.
APPEND TAB.
TAB-ID = 'R'. TAB-KEY = SPACE.  TAB-ENTRY = 'Test program'.
APPEND TAB.

SORT TAB BY ID KEY.
INSERT TEXTPOOL PROGRAM FROM TAB LANGUAGE SY-LANGU.

eg:TAB-ID = 'I'.                 For Text elements
TAB-KEY = '200'.             Text element number
 TAB-ENTRY = 'Tax'.        Actual text

But use it only for new developments. Bucause it may overwrite the existing texts.

Thanks,

Vinod.
