How to use OTR text in normal ABAP UI (Not in webdynpro)

Hello ,
I hav a requirement to assign an OTR text to a UI element in ABAP screen. How can we do that...?
I tried the syntax $OTR:<pkgname>/<aliasname> in the properties tab of the UI element,
But on executinf the screen am gewtting the syntax itself as tooltip....
Please give some inputs...
Linda.

Hello
I am not sure whether we can assign it at the screen properties level. But you can do one thing, call the FM SOTR_READ_TEXT_WITH_KEY by passing the context of the SOTR you want to read and get the text associated back in the ENTRY structure.
You can have a I/O field which is output only on the screen. And in the program you can assign the OTR text to this I/O field so that the OTR text will be displayed.

  • How to use OTR Text!

    Hi gurus,
    I am using the CRM Survey Suite to create a Survey form.
    I am supposed to create a PBO through which the OTR Texts will be displayed based on conditional checks.
    I have also created the OTR Texts via transaction Sotr_edit and  I am able to retrieve them via FM sotr_get_concept.
    Pl. let me know how I can show them on the web page, i.e. my survey form.
    I have searched and found that they can be used readily in BSP but how to use them in a Survey Form.

  • How to use the text module in script

    hi,
            i script how to use the text modules and how to write the code  in layout of the script?

    Hi,
    You canr use text modules in script. You have to use standard texts .
    Standard text are maintained in SO10 transaction.
    you can create translation text for other languages also . So based on logon language it will print translation text.
    go to SO10
    give textname it say Ztextname  id as ST and language as EN
    say create, then you will get editor there maintain your text and save it . then come back . Now change language (say for german DE) say create and eneter translation text and save it.
    so now you have created a text called ztextname which you can use in your script.
    Inorder to insert the texts in your script do as below
    go to any window editor and   select path
    Insert->texts->symbols->standard symbols
    then you will get popup  in which you have to mention all the parameters that you have created earlier.
    after inserting just change language EN to sy-langu

  • How to use Try Catch Block in ABAP Like JAVA

    Hi Experts,
       I am using BAPI to post MIGO in one of my application. If the MIGO is successfully gets posted then BAPI returns no message, but if there is some error in posting then it returns an error message. Now I want to print that error message in catch block by calling method RAISE_ERROR_MESSAGE. How to use try catch block in ABAP. Please suggest with example.
    Thanks and Regards.
    Vaibhav Tiwari.

    Hi Vaibhav
    You may not catch exceptions returned by function module using try endtry block.
    It works well with the exception returned by methods.
    In case of function modules or BAPI what u can do is to check sy-subrc returned and give message accordingly. If it returns a structure like bapireturn then display message returned.
    in case of exception returned by a method,  do it like this...
    data: excep type cx_root.
    data: v_str type string.
    try.
    *any method call or division by zero (for ex)
    catch cx_root into excep.
    endtry.
    if  excep is not initial.
    CALL METHOD   excep->if_message~get_text
      receiving
        RESULT = v_str.
    endif.
    *display the value returned in v_str on screen

  • How to use the dll  created by c++ but not write a jni wrapper around

    how to use the dll created by c++ but not write a jni wrapper around through a java program. now I can't access that dll like this directly from java.

    Your question is unclear. (You haven't said what dll you are talking about.)
    But:
    If you are talking about an existing dll, then the only alternative to writing a wrapper is to use one of the wrapper generators floating around. Do a search on JACE.
    If you are talking about a dll you are writing, then run jah and get the interface to match java right away; then you won't have to write a wrapper.

  • How to use apex_item.text in a collection or tabular form

    Hello,
    I have a table with table names. (simplified)
    create table test (tab_nm VARCHAR2(30) )
    Now I want to present this tables on a tabular form with a checkbox and a text item to put the short name for this table name.
    So I was thinking in the way of
    select apex_item.checkbox(1,ids) check,
    tab_nm,
    apex_item.text(2,c001) short_name
    from test;
    Ibut this doesn't work since the c001 column does not exist.
    So I probably should go for a collection, but how do I do that and how to process the text put in in the text item?
    Thanks

    Hi Marc,
    I think the purpose is different. I want to create a 3 column report with a checkbox to select the tables I want to use and because I do not store the shortname in the table I want the user to be able to give the shortnames himself for the selected tables.
    So
    checkbox tab_nm from table item( filled in by user but not stored in table)
    x table 1 tab1
    x table2 tab2
    table3 tab3
    writing this I 'm considering to save the short names because it can give conflicts if a shortname is used twice
    Purpose is to generate tables, with sequences and triggers dynamically from the selected tables.

    Please note that in SqlPlus you can use '?' in stead of $ORACLE_HOME, and this works on Unix and Windows so if you want to execute $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catalog.sql you can simply use:
    on Unix sql> @?/rdbms/admin/catalog.sql
    on Windows sql> @?\rdbms\admin\catalog.sql
    5.2.1 Explanation of installation steps
    1. Connected to database as SYSDBA and create CTXSYS user:
    Ctxsys user is created by calling following script:
    @?/ctx/admin/dr0csys.sql <ctxsys> <system> <temp>
    Where:
    change_on_install - is the ctxsys user password
    DRSYS - is the default tablespace for ctxsys
    TEMP - is the temporary tablespace for ctxsys
    This will create user CTXSYS and grants full privileges to CTXSYS in order to create and insert into result tables, execute callbacks, rewrite queries, and perform system cleanup. At this point CTXSYS will not own any objects.ss
    2. Connected to database as CTXSYS and create all necessary objects
    All necessary object are creates by calling following script:
    connect CTXSYS/change_on_install
    @?/ctx/admin/dr0inst <replace with $ORACLE_HOME>/ctx/lib/libctxx9.so;
    Please not that you have to put full path to your ORACLE_HOME, for example home as paramter
    On Solaris/Aix/Linux with $ORACLE_HOME of /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7
    @?/ctx/admin/dr0inst.sql /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/ctx/lib/libctxx8.so
    On HP-UX with $ORACLE_HOME of /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7
    @?/ctx/admin/dr0inst.sql /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/ctx/lib/libctxx8.sl
    Windows NT/2000 with D:\oracle\product\8.1.7
    @?/ctx/admin/dr0inst.sql D:\oracle\product\8.1.7\bin\oractxx8.dll
    This will installs all Oracle database objects required by the Oracle Text system. This includes:
    a) Data dictionary tables, views, sequence, packages
    b) Server management tables, views and packages
    c) Dispatcher packages
    d) Service queue objects
    3) Install appropriate language-specific default preferences.
    The next step is to install appropriate language-specific default preferences.When you use CREATE INDEX to create an index or ALTER INDEX to manage an index, you can optionally specify indexing preferences in the parameter string. There are seven preference classes:
    - Lexer, defines the language being indexed. ( language specific )
    - Wordlist, defines the expantion of stem and fuzzy queries. ( language specific )
    - Stoplist, defines words and themes that are not be indexed. ( language specific )
    - Datastore, defines document storage.
    - Filter, defines standards for converion of documents to plaintext.
    - Storage, defines the storage of the index tables.
    - Section group, enables possibilities to define document sections.
    There is script which creates language-specific default preferences for every language Oracle text supports in <ORACLE_HOME>/ctx/admin/defaults directory, such as English(US), Danish(DK), Dutch(NL), Finnish(SF), French(FR), German(DE), Italian(IT), Portuguese(PR), Spanish(ES), and Swedish(S). They are named in the form drdefXX.sql, where XX is the language code. To manually install US default preferences, for example, log into sqlplus as CTXSYS, and run 'drdefus.sql' as described below:
    @?/ctx/admin/defaults/drdefus.sql
    create user textuser identified by textuser
    default tablespace users
    temporary tablespace temp;
    -- You must grant 'ctxapp' role to textuser
    grant connect, resource, ctxapp to textuser;
    connect textuser/textuser
    drop table quick;
    create table quick (
    quick_id number
    constraint quick_pk primary key,
    text varchar2(80) );
    insert into quick ( quick_id, text ) values (1,'The cat sat on the mat');
    insert into quick ( quick_id, text ) values (2,'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog' );
    insert into quick ( quick_id, text ) values (3,'The dog barked like a dog');
    commit;
    create index quick_text on quick ( text )
    indextype is ctxsys.context;
    col text format a45
    col s format 999
    select text, score(42) s from quick
    where contains ( text, 'dog', 42 ) > 0
    order by s desc;
