check whether the text exists in the editor or not

[Former Member]

Hi all,

In my Proforma invoice , I am showing material sub text for each item at item level which is maintained by the user in a text editor for each item. I want to show the material description if no text is maintained by the user in that item.How can I find out whether text is maintained or not when I display it using Text element of text type INCLUDE TEXT in smartform.

Thanks in advance.

As Max Already said above, the table is STXH, but this check u can not do in the script's edior , u need to call an external subroutine. Put a select on STXH with the same parameters that you pass to include text.

If u get a sy-subrc EQ 0 then text exists else not.

Hi Jaya,

In the smartform Text element, wherein you are displaying the "material sub text for each item at item level " , go to the "CONDITIONS " Tab. and key in the folling condition:

(Mat subtext) Field NE ' '

Add one more text element where you would display the material description, go to the "CONDITIONS " Tab. and key in the folling condition:

(Mat subtext) Field EQ ' '

This should solve your concern. Revert in case of any further queries!

Thanks,
