Replace text Symbol

Hi,

I had a requirement of replacing the text symbol of standard text with dynamic values.

Text maintained is - PO &PO_NUM& has been approved

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

EXPORTING

id = 'ST'

language = sy-langu

name = 'ZTEST'

object = 'TEXT'

IMPORTING

header = header

TABLES

lines = it_text.

DATA: PO_NUM TYPE char30 VALUE 'TEST1234'.

CALL FUNCTION 'TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE'

EXPORTING

header = header

TABLES

lines = it_text.

When i am executing the above code in a report , it is working fine ,

but when i had copy the above code inside a function module,

Text symbol is getting replaced with blank value.

So,is there are some limitations of using TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE or please suggest if there is some other issue.

Thanks

Possibly declare DATA: PO_NUM TYPE char30 VALUE 'TEST1234' in your TOP-include of your functionpool.

Hi,

I checked the FM, it is having the TDLines andetc. When you run this code using the report the system will have the values., but when use it in standard code, then u need to generate some internal tables which will be used by the FM. In general you need to find pre required function modules.

Check this function pool SAPLSTXV.

Hi,

Pass replace_text = 'X' and try. You can provide the start line and end line.

Check the exporting parameter changed

Hope it helps.
