Reading text object from screen buffer

[Former Member]

Hi gurus,

We are using enhancement to do the following.

At runtime during CHANGE in Maintenance Order (IW32), implemented enhancement to add extra COMPONENT if the user adds COMPONENT with certain criteria. That means user adds one COMPONENT line item, if it fits certain criteria, the system adds another line item automatically. 

What we need to do is, there is long text field that the user may edit and add. We need the same content to be copied to the line item that system adds.

The trouble that we are facing is, since the text is not committed to database, it cannot be read through READ_TEXT. Also, when the enhancement code executes, we no longer have access to screen elements.

Is there any way to get around this?

Thanks.

Hi;

You can use the import and Export statements i think it's helpful for you...

Ravin,

you can try function

GET_TEXT_MEMORY which returns the text memory as a table.

For a full description of the text memory and the CALL mode, see the SAP Online Help on
