Changing text element description in Workbook

Hi
We are creating Workbooks, with text elements "Last Refreshed" and "Status of Data"  displayed in the report.
Is there a way to change description of these default text elements?
The user wants it changed to "Load Date" and "Run Date" respectively. I'm not sure if it's possible to change the standard text elements.
Thanks!
Pooja

Hi Pooja,
The answers you have so far are good.  Here is an alternative:
Sub SAPBEXonRefresh(queryID As String, resultArea As Range)
Dim rng As Range
    On Error Resume Next
    Set rng = Range("SAPBEXqueries!" & queryID & "tROLLUPTIME")
    If rng Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
    rng.Cells(1) = "Load Date"
    Set rng = Range("SAPBEXqueries!" & queryID & "tSYUZEIT")
    If rng Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
    rng.Cells(1) = "Run Date"
End Sub
This will work even if you move the text elements to a different worksheet within the workbook.

  • Duplicate text element description in RPCP45GN_PRESELECTION

    Hi,
    After following master note 1314614, we have sucessfully applied the solution for IYMV 2009-10.
    However, our users have noticed that in the selection screen of program RPCP45GN_PRESELECTION, the section marked "Tax Record Details" contains 2 radio buttons with the same description. i.e. buttons 1 and 3 both read "from issue date of P45 form".
    When comparing the above with program RPCP45GN, we think the 1st button (text id ISD) should say "From 1 day after pay date of the leaving period".
    Please suggest how to resolve this issue.
    Regards
    Nimmi

    Hi,
    This issue might appear if the note installation process went wrong some where. If you want you can correct the description by your self also.
      Manual steps to add the new text element :-
      1. Go to transaction SE38.
      2. Open the report RPCP45GN/RPCP45GN_PRESELECTION for editing
          after choosing the radio button labelled text elements.
      3. Scroll down and make the changes in text element.
      4. Save the changes and activate.
    Hope this could solve the issue.

    Now you can perform 3 actions:
    Create, Change, Delete.

  • Missing workbook text elements

    Hello,
    After upgrading to BI7 we are experiencing an issue with the missing text elements. We use workbooks with a sheet to receive the query and then a macro to reformat the query to user display form. The query sheet generally has a text element area and then a data area. When building the workbook we select the text element object and turn on all the text elements, this makes debugging easier and sometimes the text elements are used in the end report. Randomly after saving the workbook the text elements are turned off and on subsequent executions they are not displayed. The workbook then requires modifications to turn on the text elements, save the workbook and then transport. 
    Any thoughts would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Rick

    Hello,
    After some testing of the fixes that were applied we are still experiencing the issue with disappearing text elements.
    Any additional information or recommendations would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Text Element in SAP-Script and Box

    Hi Gurus
    Q1.what is the meaning of text element's in sap-script.e.g.
    /E INSPECTION_STATION_INFO
    /E SAMPLE_INFO
    /E PHYS_SAMPLES_HEADLINE..
    I have to use these elements in my script.i am not able to understand what does it mean?
    Q2.how we can draw a Tabular format in Script?
    Q3.How we can draw Box?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Text Elements
    You can define text elements (window texts) for each window. On the Form: Request screen, choose Edit ® Text elements.
    The print program accesses text elements by name, formats them and prints them in the respective window. That is, the program can decide which text elements should be printed in a particular window. It calls these text elements by name to print them. You must therefore change text element names in the print program if you make any changes to text element names in a form.
    In the layout of a text element, you can use only the paragraph and character formats defined in the form.
    Example of a text element in an order confirmation:
    /E ITEM_LINE
    IL &VBDPA-POSNR&,,&VBDPA-MATNR&,,&VBDPA-ARKTX&
    / &'Customerarticlenumber 'VBDPA-IDNKD' '&&'Position
    / 'VBDPA-POSEX&
    This example shows a section of a main window of a form, with an item line of an order confirmation. The /E in the tag column is used to identify the text as a text element, ITEM_LINE is the name of the text element.
    Default Text Element
    At the start of a window, you can define a text element without the /E command in the paragraph format column. This text is always printed at the start of the window. It is not necessary to insert this text explicitly via a print program.

    Boxes:
    Use the following code
    /: BOX XPOS 1 MM YPOS 2 MM WIDTH 20 MM HEIGHT 40 MM FRAME 10 TW.
    Box is the command used for printing box in script.
    XPOS - x- axis position
    ypos - y axis position

  • Workbook Text Elements are missing After Upgrade to BI7.0

    Hi All
    I am unable to see "Text Elements" in Workbook which is migrated from BW3.x to BI 7.0.
    I am using Windows XP, MS-office 2007, GUI 710 FEP5.
    workbook is working fine with Bex 3.0
    I had checked all the pre- requisite for BI 7.0 and BEx .
    Please advise me.
    Regards
    Vivek Tripathi

    This is an Known issue while upgrading WB's to BI7 and we have posted the same to SAP.
    Try this procedure,
    Open your 3.x Wb in BI7-bex - Click okie on Bex upgrade popup.
    Click on change variables in your WB now and enter necessary variable values.
    Now save you WB in BI7-Bex . Try re opening the same WB,
    You have to see your text elements now after refresh.
    if u save the same WB, w/o refresh or change varaibles, you will again miss text elements.
    The below is the reply from SAP.
    " As following to our call, I was able to open the workbook sap_test2( test WB that SAP has created in our system to replicate the problem) and to refresh it in the latest patch 17. However after saving it without
    refreshing it, I was not able to open the workbook. so we are investigating the issue.however as temporary workaround you can the following
    1. Eenable the "Refresh workbook on open" property. this will prevent
    user from saving workbook without refreshing
    2. You can apply a ABAP note which disallow users to upgrade 3.x
    workbooks. But the note is currently in pilot released."
    Ohoo, I think you are from Satyam..the above is the latest info that we got from SAP.

  • Changes in the Text element of Bex Analyzer result Informaton tab

    Hi Expert,
    How can we make changes in the display of the Text element of the query result in the Information tab and save it? For eg. The User wants to display STATUS OF DATA TO rather than STATUS OF DATA in the Information tab of the query result.
    The query is based on Multiprovider so it has Text Element of STATUS OF DATA
    In the Workbook its easy to do, how do we do the changes in the query result in Analyzer and save it, so it always displays the chosen text element?
    I dont want to create a workbook for the query, so is there any way to replace any of the Text Element with another existing standard Text element.

    Hi Ray,
    Thanks for your reply.
    The change is required in the Text element of information tab (once query is displayed there are buttons for Graph, Information), so the changes are required there for the text element and  not for Characterstics and KF.

    u  copy the standard print program and make custom program.
    write your own codes in it.
    assign this program in the place of standard print program.

  • Text elements changed in production

    Dear experts,
       The selection text in text elements are fine in development and quality system but in production it show technichal names what might be the reason it is showing technical names.

    Shilpa,
    It happens some times.Now you just make a small change in the Report Texts in Development,save it in a request and tranport it to Quality and Production.
    You can even  manually tag the report texts to a transport request as below
    Select your request in SE09
    Double click on the request
    Click on CHANGE (Ctrl+F1)
    Click on the OBJECTS TAB
    In the table Control that you are seeing,in
    PROG ID give it as LIMU
    OBJECT TYPE give it as REPT
    OBJECT NAME give the program name

  • How to change the font size of text element in smartform

    Hi
    i want to know how to change the font size of text element in smartform
    regards
    Gincy

    Hi
    You can create Smartstyles, in which you can define paragraph formats for texts and character formats for character level changes.
    Paragraph format ---> alignment, font size etc
    character format for ---> superscript, subscript.
    After creating, in your smartform, there will be a option in the text element to enter a style.
    You give the created style and you can use the paragraph and character formats i that style.
    Hope this is clear..

  • How to change general attribute of text element

    hi
    who now how to change general attribute of text element on screen dinamically? I wish to change text value dinamically for example.

    Hi Denis,
    I am not too sure on what you want.
    If you require that the text value be different based on some conditions you can declare as many text elements as conditions and call the relevant text element.
    But I dont think that you can assign dynamic texts to a single text element.

  • How can i change the sequence of text element in standard driver program ?

    Hi,
    can u tell me how can i change the sequence of text element in standard  sapscript driver program.. without making a zcopy of standard driver program.
    My problem is when MEDRUCK form is getting printed for PO print , header text is coming before item. But the requirement is to come it after item.So how cani do that without making the zcopy of  SAPLMEDRUCK program..Is there any enhancement point in SAPLMEDRUCK driver program..where i can put my customise code for changing the sequence of text element ?

    Hi,
        Just copy the MEDRUCK to ZMEDRUCK. No need to copy the driver program.
    1) SE71Menu > Utilities > COpy from Client
    MEDRUCK ->>Client 000
    New formname ZMEDRUCK
    2) Now open the ZMEDRUCK in DE language in SE71
    3) Menu > Utilities > Convert original Language
    Change DE  to EN, save and activate
    4) Now open the ZMEDRUCK in EN language
    5) Goto Pagewindows > Main window,
    Look for the HEADER text Text element, copy the whole code under this Text element just after the ITEM text Text element, and comment the HEADER text above.
    Now the Header text Text element will be below ITEM text only. This will full fill your requirment.
    Now goto NACE transaction and add the copied ZMEDRUCK to the EF application.

  • Smartforms - Change a text elements character Format

    Hello,
    I need to modify a Smartform by increasing the font size on some text elements.  When I highlight the text element to change and then click the dropdown for Character Format I can click the format I would like but it never changes.
    I've also tried resetting the character formats but it always gets back to it orginal size/settings.
    How can I change the character format in a text element?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    It appears I have to delete the field then change the character format to the font I want and finally drop the field back into place on the screen.
    If there is another way to do it, I never found it.
    Switching to the classic editor may work as well.  Worth trying.
    Thanks,
    Matt

  • After Saving Workbook Text Elements are All Blank

    I created a query, made some adjustments in Analyzer and saved the workbook.  Upon going back into my workbook, all my text elements were blank and when I open them, the constants and filter values are all unchecked.  What could have caused these to be removed.  All the structures are still there.
    Thanks,
    Cherie

    Hi Cherie,
    The problem is strange.
    But try executing the workbook again.
    Once executed, edit the query and save and execute again.
    Again save the workbook.
    This is just trying again.
    Hope it helps.
