How to retrieve long text for a particular record

Hi,
I've been looking through some of the numerous posts relating to reading long texts but I can't seem to find out how to retrieve the necessary parameters for READ_TEXT for a particular record without using the GUI.
Is there a way in ABAP that one could retrieve the parameters that are required to execute READ_TEXT just from one of the fields in the base table. eg. I would like to bring back a list of all materials with their associated long texts. I can run a query on MARA for example and retrieve the necessary material information but I would like to know how I could get the necessary information, for each row in my results, to pass to READ_TEXT.
What information would I need to perform the above, if at all possible?
Thanks in advance,
Charles

You can check out SE75. Here is where the objects and ids are listed/maintained. There is one trick to find the object/id. That is, create the text in the specific transaction. If you are talking about header text for a sales orders, go to VA02 and enter some text and save. Now go to SE16, enter STXH as the table name. On the selection screen for STXH, enter your user name for "created by" and enter the date. Execute. The record that you see is probably the text that you just created. You can see the object, the id, and even how the name is built. In this case, it would be sales order number.
Sometimes where you enter the text, there is a little "scroll" icon under the text editor, clicking that will tell you the object and id. In some cases, this functionality is not there.

Reg how to retrieve long text

actually the requirement is given below , am stuck at fetching long text ......can anybody help me in retrieving the long text(suppose two or three lines) into single variable and passing it to read_text function module as per the condition
Plz reply ASAP............
i need to combine data from two tables n also add long text field in to the final internal table.
requirement is
IF QPMK- LTEXTKZ = u2018Xu2019 then Fetch the Long Text as
Language = P_SPARCHE,
TEXT ID = u2018QPMTu2019
Text Object = u2018QPMERKALu2019
Text Name = QPMK- MANDT + QPMK-ZAEHLER + QPMK-MKMNR + QPMK-VERSION + Language (single character)
Combine Values in a single internal table such that the table has only QPMK-MKMNR, QPMK-SORTFELD, QPMK-DUMMY20, QPMT-KURZTEXT, QPMT-LTEXTKZ, Long Text

hi abap_sap leaner,
try to avoid using + for combining multiple fields, instead use concatenate and then pass to text name,
then u have to loop line table(which contain long text) and store each value from the loop in a variable of length 1500.
pls refer the following,
hd_name = p_ebeln.
call function 'READ_TEXT'
    exporting
     client                        = sy-mandt
      id                            = 'A01'
      language                      = sy-langu
      name                          = hd_name
      object                        = 'EKKO'
ARCHIVE_HANDLE                = 0
LOCAL_CAT                     = ' '
   importing
     header                        = header
    tables
      lines                         = hd_lines
   exceptions
     id                            = 1
     language                      = 2
     name                          = 3
     not_found                     = 4
     object                        = 5
     reference_check               = 6
     wrong_access_to_archive       = 7
     others                        = 8
here u have to loop hd_lines and store hd_lines-tdline values in a variable for every time the loop executes....
finally the variable contains long text..
hope it will help...

Hai ,
here you have to use custom control, for this
DATA: line(256) TYPE c,
      text_tab LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF line,
      field LIKE line.
1) Create custom control in your screen
2)   CREATE OBJECT: container EXPORTING container_name = 'TEXTEDIT',   "--> (this is custom control name in screen)
                   editor    EXPORTING parent = container.
3) CALL METHOD editor->get_text_as_stream "This method reads data from custom control , inserts into itab 'text_tab'
         IMPORTING
          text = text_tab.                                       "
      READ TABLE text_tab INTO line INDEX 1. read the text into wa 'line'
if you want more clarity , see 'ABAPDOCU' >ABAP USER DIALOGS>    COMPLEXSCREEN ELEMENTS--> DEMO CUSTOM_CONTROL

Locking / grey out long text data in transaction IW32

Hi, I read in Locking/grey out long text data (From Coding point of view ) that there is a way to block the long text description via configuration.
Well. Could you tell me how to do this, please???
Thanks a lot!

I set a breakpoint there and the program never stop there.
I'll try to describe my problem.
I go to IW32 transaction, at the components tab I click on the Long Text button of each component of the order and I can modify it. Well, the client doesn't want that.For a type of order, the user cannot modify that text.
The more strange thing is that I tried to get the text with READ_TEXT function with the same parameters as the standard and it tells me that the text doesn't exists.
I'm starting to hate this module....

Tcode FV50: How to find long text in FI Document line item Before Saving.

Hi,
How to find long text in FI Document line item.

I would like to validate the Long Text Before Saving in user exit "U300" under the "Sunstitution" .
Please anybody can be help me out where exactly this long text is going to be stored or in which internal table or memory id.
Please give me the answer as soon as possible .

Hi Amit,
In application area FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING , go for node LINE ITEM. Here create a step & maintain the prerequisite as per your requirement & in the check you can mention the code or you can direct it to a custom program like ZFI_RGGBR000.
Here while maintaining the check you will get structures BKPF & BSEG in which you will get the desired field you are looking for.
Just try to explore in your system how the other validations are maintained.
After you are done with all your code, you have to run the regeneration program RGUGBR00.
Here utmost care should be taken while running regeneration program, you should select all the checkboxes in the selection screen except GENERATE SETS, GEN SUBSTN ROUTNS IN ALL CLNTS & TRACE PROG. GENERATE CALLS .
Hope this make your doubt clear.

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

Please can someone explain how to retrieve deleted text, I was clearing old text when one came through at the same time so was also deleted.

Can someone please tell me how to retrieve deleted text. i was clearing old texts when a new one came through at the same time and was deleted also. My last update was iOS 8.1.2

You restore from a backup that was created after the text was received but before it was deleted.
But if you literally deleted it right after it came in, then it's not recoverable. Have the other person resend the text.

How to read Production Order Long Text data in ABAP program

Hi friends,
I have the issue in reading the ' Long Text ' tab view data of production order
in CO03 transaction.Please can some body help me out to get this in ABAP program.
Regards,
Rajesh Akarte

ok goto the long text, double click it, or use the small pencil, so that you proceed to the text editor.
Once you are there, use the menu: goto->head
a small popup will come up, stating the information you need.
what you need is OBJECT, ID, Language and NAME.
with those information you can feed the FM READ_TEXT.
and woooohooo there you go

How to retrieve the basic data text in material master to SAPSCRIPT?

Besides using the function module READ_TEXT in the calling program, what alternatives are there if I don't want to modify the program but make changes in the sapscript only?
I've tried to use the include statement in the sapscript editor, but I don't know how to call the text object whose ID is GRUN, object is MATERIAL.
Should I use the include statement or any other ways to do it?
Thanks.

Thanks for replying this message.
But the problem is that the object is not found,
as I tried to print &SAPSCRIPT-SUBRC& and 4 is resulted.
I've tried:
/:INCLUDE &MARA-MATNR& OBJECT MATERIAL ID GRUN LANGUAGE &SY-LANGU&
and
/:INCLUDE &ISEG-MATNR& OBJECT MATERIAL ID GRUN LANGUAGE &SY-LANGU&
But nothing is displayed. Anything wrong?
