Change Logon Language after logon

How to change logon language value after logon.

I logon system with language 'EN'. I want to change SYST-LANGU value to 'KO', 'JP', or etc so i want that every text will be shown in changed language. Menu Text, Heading or etc.

I tried to change SYST-LANGU field value in Program. But it was temporary within running program.

MOVE : '3' TO SY-LANGU.

MOVE : '3' TO SYST-LANGU.

I just want to change logon language.

where is logon language information of user storaged in?

thanks

SY-LANGU is set when you log in and will always be as long as you are logged in. You can change SY-LANGU, but I believe that when the next line of code is executed it will again be set back to the log in langauge.

I really don't think that you can do what you want. If you can, I'll really like to see it.

NO you cannot change it.. like Rich mentioned, some of the SYST variables are set to their original value in the next line of execution.. SY-UNAME is another.. you can see it for yourself in de-bug mode..

Thank you very much for this. Amazing what one can learn after years of thinking it's impossible. Very useful in environments (like SAP Portal) where the portal language is not what you want in your application!
