Initialising constants using text-element

hiii, I want to initialize the constant data object used in my ABAP program with the value of text element, Can anybody plz tell me how to do so?

Actually in my program I was using some constants data object to hold the description of the field name which will be displayed in ALV list in header. for example,, like this
*Constants for Field Descriptions:
Constants:
 c_text1 TYPE descr_40 VALUE 'Material',
 c_text2 TYPE descr_40 VALUE 'Description',
 c_text3 TYPE descr_40 VALUE 'Phys Inv Doc',
 c_text4 TYPE descr_40 VALUE 'Plant'.
Now i want to make these descriptions language independent hence i tend to use text element like this:-
 c_text1 TYPE descr_40 VALUE text-001
but this thing is not working giving some error.

Create colum headings using text elements

Hi Experts,
I want to create column heading of a report using text element, how can i create create column headings using text elements and how can i use in the top-of-page event.
Thanks

Hi,
1 For Creating Text Element,
go to Se38 -
> Write Name of the Program - > Click Change button - > Then go to GoTo on Menu Bar--> text Elements
> Select Text Symbol
In First Column( Sym) Write any Number which is not used like 001, 002.....
In Second Column (Text) write in text or description .... like Sales Order....
U can use this text Symbol in code -
> text-001, text-002.....
2 In order to insert a report heading in to the ALV grid you need to perform the following steps:
                    1. Update 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' FM call to include 'top-of-page' FORM
                2. Create 'top-of-page' FORM
3 In order to add event functionality such as 'END_OF_PAGE' to the ALV grid you need to setup the
IT_EVENTS option of the ALV function module. Also depending on which event you are using you
   may also need to setup the print parameters by activating the IS_PRINT option. Please note for events
such as end_of_page, end_of_list etc they will not be displayed on screen but only in the printed
   output.
        Step 1. Add data declaration for events and print parameters
        Step 2. Update 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY' FM call to include parameter 'it_events' and 'is_print'
        Step 3. Add code to setup events table and print parameters
        Step 4. Create event FORM(s), which are executed when event is triggered

Bex. Query in 3.5 : All Variable values using Text Elements not shown

I am using a Variable, for which I am suppose to select more than 15 values . After executing the report, I am trying look for these values using Layout--> Display Text Elements --> All.
Only first 10-11 values are shown and the rest are shown as ...
As such, I cannot see all the values in WAD too, in the info tab.
Is there any limitations to display the values with text elements ?
Any idea how to display all the values ?
Thanks

You are right. I can do this if I select Filter values.
But, I am trying to show the values entered for the variables using Layout-->Display Text elements --. Alll or variables.
These are the values shown in the web template. The filter values goes to the data analysis tab, which are fine.
I want to display all the values in the information tab, but only few values are show and rest are shown as ... The same is the case when I select Layout-->Display Text elements --> All or variables. after I execute the query.

Problem using text element with type TEXT INCLUDE in smartforms

Hi,
I am working on smartform.
My requirement is to print the text which can range from 1 to 99 (free text). I am using TDNAME, TDOBJECT and TDID from STXH table and putting it in the fields Text Name, Text Object and Text ID of text element created with type "TEXT INCLUDE" in window in smartform.
It works Fine only when I put exact value of TDNAME in Text Name field.
But in my case TDNAME can vary according to value of AENNR from Table AENR.
So I am trying to use a variable called W_TDNAME and pass TDNAME value to it. I am putting this W_TDNAME in the field TEXT NAME. And it says "Inlcude text W_TDNAME does not exist".
HELP ME OUT.
ANSWERS WILL BE AWARDED..
Tushar

Hi Tushar,
When you see in Text name field, there is a small button at the end of that field. This is to switch the dynamic field value option on. Click that and use the format &field_name& to enter your variable in that field.

Hi
Text elements in SAPscript are the individual text components of a form. In the different windows, you can define text elements with different attributes. For printout, the print program accesses them. Text elements can also contain variables (symbols) and SAPscript control statements.
In simple words, Text Elements are the only way to transfer the data from report program to FORM using WRITE _FORM FM.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d6/0db38b494511d182b70000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
You can define the text elements in sap script to group the texts that you want to display...like a condition..
Ex..
/E TEXT1
P1 This is a first text element..
Then use WRITE_FORM function module to call the text element
CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
ELEMENT = 'TEXT1'.
You can also call the write_form function module within a loop..

Is it good practice to define text elements in User exits & there by using?

Hi Experts,
Simple doubt that, am wrting code in a User Exit. So, here my code works only, if the DOC TYPE = 'XXX'.
So, instead of using hard coding as 'XXX', I wuld like to use a text element, like
if DOC TYPE = text-xxx.
my logic.
endif.
and creating the same text element.
so, let me know that,
Is it safe/recommended to use text-element in exits?
Is it good practice to define text elements in User exits?
thanq

u can also use SET ID's if u dont want to hardcode like that in ur program.
if u use SET ids , no need of transport request in case of change in the DOC types , directly u can change values in that set it , its like a master id.
sytax will be like this
doc_type in g_doc_type(this is set id ).
for creation of set ids see tcode GS01.

In Footer text elements are spliting in smartform

Hi,
In smartform, I am using text elements for printing gross / net totals in the Main window -> Table -> Footer. Now problem I am facing is all the set of elements are breaking from page to page. I want it print in one page with out any page break. How should I do that. Please suggest.
Thanks
Ram

Hi,
In the footer text , in the output options tab ..there is a check box "Page protection".. Check that..
Documentation for "Page protection"
In some cases you may want to avoid that text is divided by a page
break. Therefore, you can protect text sections with a page protection.

Addition of extra Space issue in site studio text element

Hi,
we have implemented WCM for our website. We are in webcenter PS3 version.
At places where we have used text element for titles of various sections,
if we append one extra space and save it, it displays as in front end.
When we remove the space, it does not clear. But if we cut and paste once the word once again it is perfect.
Is there any solution to trim that space when it is displayed at front end. Please suggest.
Regards,
Bhaskar

enclose your text element with strTrimWs.
Removes spaces from the beginning and end of a string.

Depending on what system you are in, you may be able to check the Page Protection checkbox in the Table node's Output Options tab. (I'm in 4.6C and this option is not available, but it may be available in your system).
Or you can try checking the No Page Break checkbox in your Line Type definition.

Text element in smartforms

Hi guys,
What is the use of text elements in smartforms? I am getting confused. For texts, we generally use text modules rite? So what is the difference between the two. Wehn am i to use text element and when am i to choose text module. Please explain me in detail
Regards,
Prem

Hi,
Text Elements (locally in form)
To include data from the form interface (data from application tables) or system data (date, time) into the text, use system fields or user-defined fields in the text When processing the form, SAP Smart Forms replaces these fields with the corresponding values
Text Modules (for reusing texts)
You can use text modules to store texts that frequently appear in your forms which is stored centrally in the system. This detaches text maintenance from form maintenance, with the result that you do not need to call the Form Builder to edit individual texts.

Selection text and text elements contents not displayed

I have a language related problem
I have 2 servers .
In first server I logged in english language and the selection text and text elements are displayed in English.
The requirement is I dont want to translate these texts it should be displayed in English only even if I log into SAP with other language.
So if I log in german I see the texts in English in the first server.
But this is not the case with second.
If I log in with English I see the english texts but if I do in german I am not able to see this english text with proper contents .
Can anybody let me know if there are any settings to be done ? As its working fine in first server but not in second .
Edited by: Jalpa Shukla on Oct 22, 2008 11:19 AM

Hello Jalpa Shukla,
If you want to display the text in english language only better dont use Text-element
instead of using text element you hard the text in the program then you will display the text in same in English.
Try in this way, If not past the code i will give the solution
