Long text in table control

Hi SDN, Rich Please respond ..! ITS VERY URGENT
i need a longtext in one of the table contol of my customised screen. the purpose of the screen is to create RFQ's where in user can enter LT ( just like the transaction IW32 - > Operations Tab - > LT Column. actually the LT in that table control is a button, pressing on which will take the user to an editor like SAP Script editor )
how do i save this into my customised tables so taht i display the LT in the display screen for RFQ's
This same LT created in RFQ Creation screen should be displayed to the users in another customised screens of RFQ Display / Change where the same functionality is needed.
Please help me in achieving this, i have been struggling from past few days, and this is very urgent.
i have been tryin the same with the fm's edit_text and read_text, but am not clear on these fm's related to HEADER in the importing parameters of the fm.
is this wrong? or is there any other way to achieve my requirement?
Please HELP

Hi,
Check this code..To display the text in a text editor control..
First you have to create a custom control in your screen painter and name it as CONTAINER1..
Then apply this code..
TYPES: BEGIN OF type_text,
 line(70),
 END OF type_text.
DATA: t_texttable1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF type_text.

Use the FM for text delete when u press save button and not at table control delete command.
physically delete the line from table control and put it in internal table which can be used for deletion purpose at time of actual deletion...

How to show long text in TextView control in formatted form?

Hi,
I have requirement to show long text from backend text edit control to WD application. I am using READ_TEXT Fm to read the long text and passing it to text view UI element.
The text is shown in simply one long line but I want it to show in the same format as stored in backend textedit control.
If I take textedit UI control then it shows the text in formatted form.
Could you please let me know how to achieve these for TextView control? My requirement is that I have to use only TextView control.
Thanks,
Chandra

Hi,
The Problem solved to some extend but still the exact formatting is not happening though i am using cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline.
for eg. if the long text is as below.
"To display the external component, you can now embed an interface view of any window of this component in a window of your current embedding a view of oneu2019s own component. By setting up navigation from one outbound plug of a view of your inbound plug of the inter external component, you enable the external component to be displayed. New line ."
and if in backend the Last line " New line ." is on next line, on WD it is not displayed on next line.
Thanks,
Chandra

Dynamic header text in table control - Dialog programming

Hi All,
I have a table control on one of my dialog screens. I need to dynamically change the column header texts on this control in my PBO. Does anyone know how to do this? I have found all kinds of ways to modify the other characteristics of the fields at run time in the PBO (active, input/output, invisible, etc.) - but not to change the header text! Any help is appreciated.
thanks,
Matt

Hi Hymavathi,
I appreciate your help! This didn't solve the issue, however,...I have used the method you'd mentioned before (many times) for setting it inside the loop at screen:
%_<screenname>_%_APP_%-TEXT = <text something>.
- but only in ABAP reports. It doesn't seem to recogize it (the table control column header text) within a dialog program. I keep getting a compile error. (saying that the %_<screenname>_%_APP_%-TEXT doesn't exist.
I tried the suggestion that you stated below (from lateesh) - yet it only let me place i/o field in title text area (not the column header text). Am still searching...

Long text in Table UI Element Column not wrapping

Hi Guys,
I'm using a Table UI element that displays some text fields. One of these fields are quite long - 255 chars. I need this text field to wrap if it contains such long data without altering the default layout of the Tale. I cant get this to work. It either extends the column to display all 255 characters (which makes the table FAR too long), or it cuts off the text and I cant see the rest of it.
I have ticked the "wrapping" property of the Textview Text Editor but this doesn't work. I have also played around with otherproperties but cannot do the desired combination.
Please advise,
Christiaan

Go this resolved. I have the following settings:
1. Table property "fixedTableLayout" is un-ticked
2. Cell Editor type TextView property "wrapping" is ticked.
Thanks!

Variable column header in table control

Hi all, I need a variable column header text in table control. I am doing the following but is not working,
I have deleted the header field that the wizard created me thorugh a internal table, and put a I/O field instead.
I have assigned a variable in the name of this field.
In the PBO I am writing the following:
LOOP AT   i_details
       WITH CONTROL tc_detail
       CURSOR tc_detail-current_line.
    MODULE m_modify.
ENDLOOP.
MODULE m_modify OUTPUT.
IF tc_detail-current_line EQ '1'.
    var1(header column text) = 'text1'.
    var2(header column text) = 'text2'.
ENDIF.
ENDMODULE.
But with this is not working, the rare thing is that the first time that the screen is shown, this value is not appearing. After press Enter or some action, the value appears.
I am not doing anything in PAI. The only code that is in PAI is:
Loop at i_details.
endloop.
Nothing more.

Hi,
First just drag and drop all the fields that are to be a part of the table control. Then drag the label on the column header. Give name and text to the label.

Dynamic Column Header On Table Control

Dear Friend
How I can set Dynamic Column Header Text On Table Control
Regards
Supperkorn

Just set it to a global variable name, and then set the value of that global variable as needed, e.g. in your TOP include define "g_my_header(20) type c" and then use g_my_header in the "Table column header" definition in the Dynpro... and in your PBO code put a value in g_my_header.

WBS long text

Hello.
I need some help for an ABAP report.
How can I find back a WBS long text in table STXH from a WBS in table PRPS? Via the OBJNR? Is there any conversion?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
the way to find it out is that you set a breakpoint into the function module READ_TEXT ( via SE37) and then process a PSP-Element with a long text via CJ12 or CJ13.
The transaction will stop at the breakpoint, an you get the text-id/text-name/ text-object from the input parameters on the function module.
If i try, it says ID = 'LTXT', name = 'E'<PRPS-PSPNR>, object = 'PMS', but for a WBS text there may be other parameters.
If you need the logic in an own programm, you could use the function READ_TEXT instead of selecting texts via STXH/STXL.

Database Table where modifications to message long text are stored (log)

Hi,
As per manual correction mentioned in SAP note 1144291,
we have changed the long text for message XC092 by modification of the long text.
This note 1144291 is a pre-requisite for SAP Note 1310808.
After the notes were implemented, it is noticed that message CURTO1055 has incorrect information in its long text. This is because, the variable in the long text are not correctly defined in the long text.
Both the messages XC-092 and CURTO1-055 are SAP standard.
The error for CURTO1-055 can be rectified by modification of the long text and maintenance of the correct variables.
However, my question is:
Where do we check the log for document modifcation for a message long text.
I have found the logs relevant to my modification in table DOKHL and DOKIL.
But in which table do we get all of the foll. data:
- Message class
- Message number
- Modification name
- Modification created by
- Modification done on
- Last changed by
- Last changed on
Kindly help. A <removed by moderator> solution would be really helpful.
Best Regards,
Smruthi
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on May 5, 2011 12:07 PM - urgency reduced

Hi Smruthi,
The modification changes would be in the SMODILOG table. Please note this is a core basis table and should not be changed, however to best find your changes search under the TRKORR field with the relevant tp request.

Hi Moni,
The problem as I had replied in your earlier post is with the MODIFY statement.
MODIFY TABLE ITAB FROM ITAB. This statement will do the modifications based on the table key. When you have character fields as editable, then some problems are to be anticipated. In such a scenario, you must update the internal table based on the index, rather than based on key.
So consider using
MODIFY ITAB FROM ITAB INDEX TCL-CURRENT_LINE.
Where TCL is the name of the Table Control. Also observe the difference in syntax here, don't use the TABLE keyword for the MODIFY statement.
Please try it out and let me know.

Anand Mandalika.

From which table i can get the long text

Hi All
I have created some long text through function module CREATE_TEXT And i am able to see the text in the transaction .
My requirement is from which table i can get these stored long text???
Any suggestions please.
Thanks

Appreciate your answers.
I have checked the both the fields stxh as well as stxl but i am not able to find any text fields out there.
My actual requirement is some third party software needs to b mapped the table fields in order to import it.
So if i know the table fields that would be easier.
Can you tell me y we can not read it from the tables?
Thanks,

How to store long text in Rich Text Format in custom table

Plz advise

Not that familiar with RTF, but you could try and create a field of type (x)string in your table and store the data there.

How to show the content of a table (long text) in a scrollable textbox?

Hi,
I have to say first, many thanks to the ones who answers to threads in this forum, it's very helpfull when we're learning web dynpro!
I have a RFC function that return a table containing a long text (node "it_text", with elements "Tdformat" and "Tdline").
1) I want first to copy all the Tdlines in a new node "text_box" (that I made specially for the screen, it contains only the element "Tdline" [the text itself]);
2) Then I want to show the content of the node "text_box" in a scrollable textbox on the screen (to show 8 lines of text, for example).
How to do that easily? What is the UI Element needed to show that?
Thanks!

If you want to display as it is then you can use Table UI element. You can change the design property to 'transparent' and set column header visibility property to none. Then you need not to write any code simple you can map the node to table field.
Even with TextEdit you can achieve what you want. Try this code...
 StringBuffer tmpBuffer = new StringBuffer();
 for(int index=0;index<wdContext.nodeLines().size();index++)
 wdContext.nodeLines().setLeadSelection(index);
 tmpBuffer.append(wdContext.currentLinesElement().getLine()+"n");
 wdContext.currentContextElement().setData(tmpBuffer.toString());
