Kaki,
Delcare a table and getting the LONG TEXT is not the right way of doing this.
You create a TEXT object and change the TYPE to INCLUDE TEXT. Once that is done all you have to do specify the parameters of your long text - TEXT ID, TEXT OBJECT and TEXT NAME. These are the same parameters that you use for READ_TEXT funciton. You don't have to fetch the text manually, it happens automatically.
Make sure this is a part of the main window as this might run into multiple pages.

Ravi

""This is an example label that displays long text, how to break the line????.........""
how to display it like below with one label?
""This is an example label
that displays long text, how
to break the line????.........""
Thanks

so basically do this
JLabel myLabel = new JLabel();
String theText = "<html>This is an example label<br>
that displays long text, how<br>
to break the line????.........</html>";
myLabel.setText(theText);Obivously, u dont have to use a separate string, u could just call setText or pass it into the JLabel constructor, i just separated it to make it easier to see what your supposed to do.

How to display long text in alv

Hi ,
I need to display the long text of particular object on ALV, with 30 char each line .
I have long text in one internal table, master table have one to maany relation with longtext table and long text contains 120 character in each line.
i need to display long text using 30 char in each line on alv. could you please suggest the soution ????
format is like
ponumber date         longtext
    1234    03/04/05   this is PO is created
                              for materail which have
                              shortage in plant.

hope u r expecting this..
optimize = 'X'
if u use OUTPUTLEN it is fixed size for that specific field, and also it reflects for next fields, to avoid that again have to mention OUTPUTLEN = 'X' for next field.
With OPTIMIZE = 'X' it will adjust based on the size.

How to display Long text information in my view

Hi
I have a long text of static information , which i need to show in my view. its like agreement information. The user must be able to read it . It has some 20 lines of text. Which is the appropriate control to be used to show the information ?

Hi Naresh
I had some options of displaying the long text in the view.
option 1 - The long text in sap table was in multiple rows in terms of having each line as one record and when displayed looks like a paragraph statement. So I used a webdynpro table to populate the rows and made invisible the row/column lines. So When you run it on the browser it will display like a long text. By default, SAP table will have column some length of 72 characters, which I changed to 140 charcs, to get a long sentence formation.
option 2 - If the long text is not from SAP table and its kind of direct information, then just keep on pasting the text in the text view by providing spaces appropriately, so that the display will be a continous form of paragraph. This is a trial and error way and providing the spaces between the lines.
option 3 - Store the long text in a text file and call a import parameter, which will read the whole text and store it in string (node) and display it text view. ( alignment cannot be gauranteed)
option 4 - Last one, is to call a office (msword) or a pdf control , which will display the long text through the word editor or a pdf form.
If you have any specific issues do write back to the forum.
thanks
sathya

How to display a text in smartform without compression

Hi,
My requirement is to print a text in a smartform with out compression of the line text.
ex. In my internal table having a line text as
'spoolno 25200 | pageno 500--> while printing in smartform, it was displayed as
''spoolno 25200 | pageno 500'.
but i want to print the line as it is in Internal table. please send me the solutions..
Thanks in advance.

If you want your text to be read-only, you can use the RichText component instead of TextArea. Search for Text Layout Framework for more info on how to mark up your text.

How to display long text in a paragraph format using class CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT?

I need to display a long paragraph in the text editor. I realize I have to declare a very long table line for my text table. For example, I wrote a subroutine set_paragraph_text.
FORM set_paragraph_text USING p_paragraph.
DATA: l_line(1000) TYPE c,
             lt_paragraph LIKE TABLE OF l_line.
APPEND p_paragraph TO lt_paragraph.
Display the paragraph in the text editor.
CALL METHOD g_textedit->set_text_as_r3table
    EXPORTING
      table = lt_paragraph.
ENDFORM.                    " set_paragraph_text
This approach works well in release 6.4. Will it also work for earlier versions with more stringent char length limit? If not, can anybody suggest a better solution for the problem? The bottom line is that the paragraph needs to be displayed in its natural format, not one sentence per line. Another restriction is that the paragraph text is pre-fixed so it is hard coded into the program as a string literal.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Could this help you?

How to display long text of info in webdynpro view

Hi all
I want to retrive a text of 500 characters in TextEdit UI element from R3,but the attribute through which we have bind this UI element is mapped to model attribute which is coming in the form of table i.e. first row of that table contains first 132 characters and the second row contains next 132 characters. Now the problem is how to retrieve the whole text and display in that UI element.
Same is the problem for submitting this 500 text.

Hi,
You can use String concatenation for this:
String textToShow = <get first 132 characters from the model node>;
textToShow += <get next 132 characters from the model node>
//set textToShow to the context attribute bound to the TextEdit UI element.

How to display Long text in a single text area field.

Hi All,
I have a tabletype field which carries n lines to the form.
I want the n lines to be displayed on the form in a floating field. I had the binding ike this
"$.table.data[].TDline[]" to the field but its just displaying only 1st line.
Is there any other approach?
Right now I am thinking of having a hiddne subform with table and then concatinate all the lines of the table to this floating field.
Thanks & Rgerads,
Sai

Hi Otto,
Thanks for the reply..!
This query is not related to the other post I had earlier, let me explain it bit clear.
I have a Static text with 4 lines.
Each line has a floating field of type text sime thing like Name: <name Textfield> etc.
Now on the 4th line I got Address with floating field.
Where this address data is coming as a internal table.
Now I want all the lines of this address in single floating field with multiple lines. so the data binding I had is $.Address.DATA[].line[].
at run time I see only one line of data f rom the address table in the address floating field, what I was looking is for multiple lines in this floating field.
Let me know if you need more info.
Cheers,
Sai

How to use standard texts in smartforms

Hi Friends,
How to use standard texts in smartforms, ie in scripts we are using standard texts using tr so10.
thanks in advance,
regards,
sharma.

For long text
method1
Create TEXT node- general attributes change text type to include text
then you can input text name/text object/text id/language
method2
create PROGRAM LINE node - use FM READ_TEXT to read it to a internal table
then use LOOP or TABLE node to display it
For TEXT module(For foreign language)
Tr-code:smartforms -- choose Text module(not choose form)--create a text module object
then enter smartform Create TEXT node- general attributes change text type to text module
input the text module name which created by above
btw SO10 is just for Scriptform, in smartforms we use text module to replace SO10
