String in SM30?

[bjorn-henrik_zink]

Hi,

when I try to generate table maintainance (<b>sm30</b>) I get the following error:

<b>Data type STRING is not supported </b>

I need to add long texts in some database table fields. How can I achieve that and at the same time use the table maintainance generator?

Thanks.

Hi Anversha,

I do not have XSTRING in the system (ERP2005/ECC 6.0).

Hi,

It's not possible to generate Table Maintanance generator if you have fileds of STRING. May be you can try LCHR in your table instead of STRING.

LCHR will let you generate the maintance generator.

You need to add one more field to the table for storing the length of the string that is stored in LCHR.

As far as I know, the Dynpro is not able to display fields longer than 255.
