Hi,

Example of Read_Text code is :

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

EXPORTING

id = zvid

language = 'R'

name = zvname

object = 'VBBK'

IMPORTING

header = thead

TABLES

lines = line

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 8.

in Above function module if you want to know exporting parameters Goto STXH table at there test it by provide the 4 inputs. For which input you will get the required text pass those inputs to FM here.

Hi,

For calling the Standard Text it is not required to call using FM READ_TEXT, we can call it in SCRIPT directly.

first select window where u want to display the standard text then press F9 or text elements button. by clicking it opens the editor..

here select menu item INSERT->TEXT->STANDARD...by doing like this it opens pop-up asking for TEXT NAME, TEXT ID, Language...pass the values & click ok...

or..

pass the text object as 'TEXT' to READ_TEXT FM.

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

EXPORTING

id = 'ST'

language = 'R'

name = 'Z1690_LICENSE'

So no need of Text object creation? is giving "TEXT" to text object in FM enough?

[Former Member]

Hi,

yes exactly, u just pass 'TEXT' in OBJECT' exporting parameter in the FM, as shown in my earlier post..

Hope it helps!!

when do we need text object then? is there any use of fm read_text in sap scripts?

[Former Member]

Hi,

Yes, we use frequently READ_TEXT FM, when we need the Header level or Item level TEXT from the standard transactions..

Eg: PO Header text or PO item level text, SO Header text or SO Item text etc., that time we pass the repective TEXT OBJECT..

Hope its clear!!
