READ_TEXT :please help

[Former Member]

hi,

i am working with smartforms The material description field in vbrp i.e arktx has a limited length and if you want to give additional details on description you need to work with mm01 transaction and there in the item text you fill the description

i concatenated this description to the filed arktx ie it_vbrp-arktx and separated the discription by ','(comma).

now i want each row of description to be displayed on a new line.

i am calling the funtion module READ_TEXT for this.

waiting for your responses.

Hi

Hi Akmal

Try as below:

For lines greater than 1 of each material descriptions insert a record in IT_VBRP with doc no, item and new ARKTX.

This way when you print ARKTX by looping on IT_VBRP, it can fetch you onto the layout.

Hope this gives you some clue...

u can have table of tyep TLINE inside the internal table it_vbrp.

i can give u more explanation...

data: begin of it_tline occurs 0.

append structure tline.

data end of it_tline.

data : begin of it_vbrp occurs 0,

vbeln type vbrk-vbeln,

.

.

tline like it_tline,

.

.

end of it_vbrp.

for every line item in it_vbrp u can have the description(which is read by using READ_TEXT) in the table it_vbrp-tline[].

Hope this idea may help you.

reward points if useful.

Regards,

Sujatha.

using the REad text you will get more than 1 record..

now insert a loop in the purticluare item field then loop the table..with TExT..
