Hi all,

After converting script to smartform,coding lines are placed into text elements. Is there anyway to convert including these to code lines or need to manually copy and paste in new node by creating code line

Thanks.

I'm not sure if SAP delivered any improvements in this area (seriously doubt it) but last time I checked you have to convert the code manually. SAPScript is using its own weird language, so you have to rewrite it anyway. And in many cases, the code does not need to be converted as a Code node of Smartforms but instead a different node should be used altogether. Address is a perfect example. In SAPScript, we had to write the code to insert an address but Smartforms have a designated node and we just specify the parameters in the node settings. Much simpler.

As a side note though, if you have to go through all this trouble, why not convert to Adobe Form? That will take you to the Cloud and beyond.
