Hi,

We can store in another way.

By creating table with the fields as in the structure 'TLINE'.

Two fields are there, one is for Line format and another one for Line Content.

In SAPscript, this is the concept used.

Using function module 'CONVERT_ITF_TO_ASCII', you will get your original text.

Hi,

Try using LRAW datatype.
