Hi

Short texts are nothing but the field descriptions not more than 60 char generally.

Won't be much problem with short texts in Scripts/smartforms.

Problem comes with Long texts which will be of long length more than some lines.

they are stored in STXH table and are retrived using the Function module

READ_TEXT in the driver program of the script and are included in script with INCLUDE <Textname> ID Paragraph <name> Language <langu>

see any std script like MEDRUCK in SE71 , go to MAIN window and see the INCLUDE statements

they are nothing but the long texts.

reward if useful

regards

Anji
