Hi:

Thank you in advance for your support:

I need to modify a smartform from a program.

When I try to modify the smartform appears this alert:

Package ZAGX does not exist

I press F9 and appears this help message:

"Message no. TR414"

In SE80 the package ZAGX does not exist.

I have many questions:

1.

Why the program stills works?

2.

Do i need to create a new package and MOVE all the program and dependecies to this new package?

4.

How can I see what was inside this missed package?

Maybe nowadays there are another programs in the same situtation.

1. This is always true with any object. A package is only used for transport, dependencies at compile time, logical grouping, etc.

2. Yes you need to create a package to be able to edit the object. Nothing else (other objects pointing to this package will be now editable). If you don't create any dependency in the package (create a package with almost nothing except assigning the right transport layer), then it will be fine.

4. The package assignments are stored in the TADIR table (Object directory entries). The package is in field DEVCLASS.
