Hi Sri,

To get chinese and Japanese texts, if you want your prog to be also in english, develop in english first as usual no changes.

To get into chinese, logon in chinese and then go to your program, go to text elements and then you will have an option for translation in (text elements>go to>translation) there you give your destination language and then u can copy your required texts in chinese. While calling the smart forms also you need to store all your texts in text elements and then pass them to the smartform, so that these also will be converted to the chinese texts.

The same procedure can be applied to the japanese texts.

Or you can also follow another approach.

Go to SE63

Menu>Translation>ABAP Objects>Short Texts>Popup

Select ABAP Texts-->Text elements

Object Name = Your Program name

and give the source language and the dest lang and then press Enter.

You will get a screen where it shows the text elements in your program and below those you will have to enter the destination texts and after that save it and execute the program in your required language. Everything will be fine.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Narendra.

Hi,

This because of the problem with the code page. Just before logging into the SAP server, on the log On pad click on Change Item for the corresponding server. Then click on Advanced....Uncheck the default code page and then select the desired language and the code page will correspondingly change. Now Log on using this settings.

Once logged in click on the Customizing of Local Layout(ALT + F12) and in the character set select the charcter set you want.

This should solve you problem.
