Hi

For determining the parameters, you can do that by going to the editor of the text. Use menupath Goto->Header. Here we can find the Text-ID, Text Object and how textname is stored. Pass these parameters to FM: READ_TEXT to extract the text.

Note that material number has to be prefixed with '0' incase of numerical values. For doing so, use FM: CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
  EXPORTING
    INPUT         = itab-matnr
 IMPORTING
   OUTPUT        = itab-matnr.

Hope the above info helps you.

Kind Regards
