Hello,

I would like to remove some text variables that I created in the BEx query designer.

Does anybody know how to do that?

Hi Claudio,

Pl follow this procedure:

First make sure that this text variable is not used anywhere else.

Now go to KF structure-->right click on any KF/CKF/Formula ->properties->Edit---> now click on 'Select Text varibles' icon --->it will show you all the available text variables -> double click on the text variable which you wanted to delete (now you can see it in descrion wondow of KF )-> Highlight only this 'Text varible'(just like slecting it)->now just click on it again (left mosue click)---> from drop down,choose 'Edit Text variable' --->cilck on 'delete' push button..

text variable will be deleted if it is not being used in any other kf/ckf/formuala...etc

Hope this helps!

As I just said above, I know this procedure. But my variable does not show in the list. It exists however as I can see it in table RSZGLOBV

Hi Claudio,

Goto the change of the text variable and there below you will have the Delete button.

Clicking that will delete the Variable.

But before deleting please make sure it is not used anywhere.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Parth.

OK I can do that.

But I seem to have created a text variable that is not displayed in the list.

I can see it on RSZGLOBV but not when accessing text variables in the query designer.
