SAP Script

[abdul_hakim]

Currently we have report in that they are calling editor which resembles SAPScript editor for

entering long text.Currently the user has no functionality of saving this long text.Now there is a requirement to save these long text into a Z table.How can i save this long text and retrieve later?

Kindly advice.

Thanks in advance

Hi

you should use the fm EDIT_TEXT and SAVE_TEXT to call, write and save the text.

These functions return the header data (object, name,...)of the text you should insert in the Z-TABLE.

Abdul,

Welcome to SDN!!!

Use Function Module READ_TEXT for reading the Long Text.

I feel ,u can use 'COMMIT_TEXT' func module to save the text.

Thanks,

You cannot save your long text in Z table as with EDIT_TEXT / SAVE_TEXT it will go into standard table STXH / STXL.

You can use the standard table itself with

OBJECT -> "TEXT"

ID -> "ST"

NAME -> <UNIQUE_NAME>

SPARS -> SY-LANGU .

The name should be unique while retriving or saving the text . Maybe you can save the name of text in another ZTABLE also .

Hi,

there are 2 function modules, which we use to read text & save the text.

1. READ_TEXT

for this you have to pass the below fields to the fm

ID

LANGUAGE

NAME

OBJECT

and you will get already stored text for this ID into the LINES internal table.

the above values for ID,NAME,OBJECT etc. you can find in the transaction.

for example: for delivery,goto header-> texts -> select the text you want to proceed ->select DETAIL ->

you will see a new screen .there in the menu GOTO -> header .

here you can find all the required fields to pass to the function module.

2. SAVE_TEXT

for this what data you have to process first store in LINES internal table.but remember this function module will overwrite existing text,if it exists.so first get the records by using READ_TEXT . append ur lines to that then finally call this FM.

SAVEMODE_DIRECT set this field to X ,sothat changes will reflect immediately.

why you are storing these into other Z-tables ?? any way these will be stored in standard tables. why dont u access them instead of creating another Ztable ?

Generally, long texts don't store in Z tables, it should be stored in the texts(transaction code SO10). If you want to store the text, you need to create Text ID, Text object and text name to uniquely identify from each other.

After creating these you call get the data using FM Read_text and edit it by edit_text and save it by save_text.
