1. One way to start the script debugger is:

Se71->utilities->activate debugger.

This may be a time-consuming process. Instead, open a session and execute the program RSTXDBUG. Even if you follow the above menu path to activate the script, it will internally execute the program RSTXDBUG. So you are saving some time in going through all of the above processes.

2. Generally SAP script contains the Layout and corresponding print program.

First go to SE71 and enter ur script name. In the same screen go to Utilities->click on activate debugger option.

Now go to SE 38 and enter ur Print Program name and execute the program.

Now you can debug the script Page wise and window wise.

I hope it helps.

Hi Ratna,

<b>RSTXDBUG</b> - SAPScript debugger

Debug SAPScript

You can debug a SAPScript: Use Tools - Word Processing - Layout Set.

Enter name of layout set and then Utilities - Activate Debugger.

It is of no consequence which layout set you enter when selecting the SAPscript debugger. (Menu path: Tools-Word-processing - Forms, Utilities - Activate Debugger) The next layoutset called will invoke the debugger. This is quite handy when verifying which layoutset is being called (Verifying customizing settings).

Another way to set the SAPScript debugger is to run program RSTXDBUG.

When a Form is copied from one client to another .And If U try to display or change the form in the copied client .The possible error message cud be :

1.Form not found

Try coping again specifing the language .

2.IF IT dispalys an error message saying That the text file is inconsistent .

Then go to SE38 and Run “RSTXCHKO” .

It will ask for the form name ,then check all the checkboxes and then run the program.

Note : all Script related problems can be solved using Program ‘RSTX*’.

Reward points if this Helps.

hi,

2). DEBUG SAPScript

They are two ways to debug the SAPScript.

1). Use Tools - Word Processing - Layout Set (SE71). Enter name of layout set and then Utilities - Activate Debugger.

It is of no consequence which layoutset you enter when selecting the SAPscript debugger. (Menu path: Tools-Wordprocessing - Forms, Utilities - Activate Debugger) The next layoutset called will invoke the debugger.

2). Another way to set the SAPScript debugger is to run program RSTXDBUG.

When you debug Print program it is same as you debug any other ABAP program.

While when you debug SAPScript, you actually debug the code ( scripting) you have written SAPScript Form.
