Read text from Info 128

Hi All,
In Driver Program, how to read text(TDLINE) from info 128 for the employee.
Thank you,
Sentchan

The table name for info type 0128 is PA0128 which has the text id etc in the table. Look in SE11 AT PA0128 to find the fields and you can look in SE16 at the data if you want an example to test. You can then for an examnple feed these values into READ_TEXT via SE37 to see if the text that appears matches what you see in PA30 for infortype 0128.
Fields should be
OBJCT = Texts: application object
TXTID = Text ID
OBNAM = Object name
These can be fed into READ_TEXT to get your text. Alternatively, do as the other poster suggested and use PA30.
Hope this helps.

Reading text from server socket stream

I have a basic cd input program i've been trying to figure out the following problem for a while now, the user enters the artist and title etc and then a DOM (XML) file is created in memory this is then sent to the server. The server then echos back the results which is later printed on a html page by reading the replys from the server line by line.
The server must be run it listens for clients connecting the clients connect and send DOM documents through the following jsp code.
<%@page import="java.io.*"%>
<%@page import="java.net.*"%>
<%@page import="javax.xml.parsers.*"%>

I'm suppose to modify the commented sections labled with #.
#1,2 are correct but i have doubts on the 3rd and 4th modification.
for #3 i changed so i serializes to the socket not to the "out" object:
from
XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(out, format);
to
XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(writer, format);
with "out" it prints out some of the results entered but it just hangs i'm thinking it might be the while loop that i added in #4. If i changed it to serialize the socket XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(writer, format); it doesn't print out nothing at all; just a blank screen where it hangs.
I can post the rest of the code (server thats in java and cdinput.html) but since i want to keep my post short and if required i'll post it later on i also omitted some of the code where it creates the DOM textnodes etc to keep my post short.

On your previous thread, why did you say the server was using http POST and application/xml content type when it quite obviously isn't, but a direct socket communication that abuses XML comments for message end delimiters?
The comments imply you need to wait for "" on a line by itself, but your loop is waiting for "QUIT".

Is there a way to have the iPad 2 "read" text from iBooks as with web sites or pages?

is there a way to have the iPad 2 "read" text from iBooks as with web sites or pages? A different App perhaps?

Isn't that you asking how to get it (undefined) back?
If you never had Pages '09, you can buy it from Amazon very cheaply:

Indesign CS3-JS - Problem in reading text from a text file

Can anyone help me...
I have an problem with reading text from an txt file. By "readln" methot I can read only the first line of the text, is there any method to read the consecutive lines from the text file.
Currently I am using Indesign CS3 with Java Script (for PC).
My Java Script is as follows........
var myNewLinksFile = myFindFile("/Links/NewLinks.txt")
var myNewLinks = File(myNewLinksFile);
var a = myNewLinks.open("r", undefined, undefined);
myLine = myNewLinks.readln();
alert(myLine);
function myFindFile(myFilePath){
var myScriptFile = myGetScriptPath();
var myScriptFile = File(myScriptFile);
var myScriptFolder = myScriptFile.path;
myFilePath = myScriptFolder + myFilePath;
if(File(myFilePath).exists == false){
//Display a dialog.
myFilePath = File.openDialog("Choose the file containing your find/change list");
return myFilePath;
function myGetScriptPath(){
try{
myFile = app.activeScript;
catch(myError){
myFile = myError.fileName;
return myFile;
Thanks,
Bharath Raja G

Hi Bharath Raja G,
If you want to use readln, you'll have to iterate. I don't see a for loop in your example, so you're not iterating. To see how it works, take a closer look at FindChangeByList.jsx--you'll see that that script iterates to read the text file line by line (until it reaches the end of the file).
Thanks,
Ole

Problem with reading text from .DOC files through java and POI

I have used a jar file "poi-scratchpad-3.2-FINAL-20081019.jar" and "poi-3.2-FINAL.jar" to read text from a .DOC file. I used the "getParagraphText()" function of the class "org.apache.poi.hwpf.extractor.WordExtractor" to get the text.
I am able to get the text in the .DOC file but along with that i am getting the following messages/warnings

Below the above messages/warnings the data is getting printed. Only the text part of the data is retrieved not the fonts, styles and bullets etc.
Can anyone explain me why I am getting above warnings and how can I remove them. Is it possible to fetch the text depending on delimiters.
Thanks in advance,
Tiijnar
Edited by: tiijnar on May 21, 2009 2:45 AM

The jar files which were used are downloaded from http://jarfinder.com. Those jars created the problem of displaying those messages on console. I downloaded APIs from apache.org and used them in my application. Now my application is running good.

Reading Texts from Infotype

Hi,
How can we read texts from the Infotype. There is this function module HR_ECM_READ_TEXT_INFOTYPE, but we need the Employee Number, Begin date and End Date as inputs.
I just want to check if a field with a particular value exists or not.
just like this works to check whether the field DAT35 with value 99991231 exits or not.
SELECT PERNR FROM PA0035 INTO V_PERNR WHERE DAT35 = '99991231'.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
ENDIF.
the same way for a text, but this text actually gets stored in a structure thats why we cannot use a select for infotype
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
What i am getting from ur explanation is that u are having a probelm in accessing a text field from the infotype, i.e: the value field in included in the infotype table (PA0035) but its text is in another table.
If this is the problem, u should first use select statement on PA0035 to get the required infotype record. Then use F1 help on the required text field on the infotype screen to get the table and field name. Then u can use select statement on that table by specifying the relavant value field from the previous select in the where clause.
Hope this hepls

How do I read text from specific rows and columns in a tree structure?

How do I read text from specific rows and columns in a tree structure? In a table you can specify the cell to read from but I have not been able to figure out how to do this with a tree structure.

You need to set two properties to activate the correct cell and then you can read it's string property.
The positioning properties are the "ActiveItemTag" and
"ActiveColNum" properties. With them you select the tree item by it's tag and the active column. The string can then be read from the "Cell String" property.

Read text from purchase order.

I have few queries regarding texts in a document.
1. How do i identify the id for a text of a line item in any PO document?
2. Secondly a pgm is using read_text to get this text. before which 'stxh' is queried. But when i debugged i found that for a particular document there is no entry in this table though there is a text in the document and hence doesnot perform a read_text. The text is auto generated through info records. How to retrieve this text?
Ans wil be appreciated and rewarded

Hi Ravikumar thanks for u quick reply.
This is wht is currently coded.
concatenate values to get item text for read text function
   invar3+0(10) = invar1. "PO number
   invar3+10(5) = invar2. "PO line number
   SELECT SINGLE * FROM stxh WHERE tdobject = 'EKPO'
                               AND tdname   = invar3
                               AND tdid     = 'F01'
                               AND tdspras = sy-langu.
   IF sy-subrc = 0.
     invar4 = invar3.
reading the text for the document items.
     CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
       EXPORTING
         id       = 'F01'
         language = sy-langu
         name     = invar4
         object   = 'EKPO'
       TABLES
         lines    = it_itab.
I have seen some PO's which have info rec texts in that, which gets pulled by the above code...first thing is its id is F02 which exist in STXH table also there is other text with F01 id, and hence the table it_itab gets both these text hence no pbm.
but i came across a PO which has only one text which is info rec text with id F05 and is not store in stxh and hence doesnot get pulled by read_text fm. How do i change my cod to get this text which should not hamper other PO's as well.
As mentioned in above msgs, this F05 could be retrieved by providing object name as EINE.
anyhelp will be appreciated and rewarded.
thanks

How to read text from PDF and HTML

I have got solution to read text form .txt file but did'nt get code for PDF and HTML.
I dont want to convert PDF to txt.
Please help me ...

reading from a file is always the same. using the same strategy used for a .txt will allow you to read a .pdf file.
Offcourse in itself it will be useless becuase pdf files have a special internal structure.
html files are identical to txt files.
What are you trying to accomplisch with the files you are reading ?

Read Text from HTML-Pages and want to solve "ChangedCharSetException"

Hello,
I have an app that connect via threads with pages and parse them an gives me only the Text-version of a HTML-page. Works fine, but if it found a page, where the text is within images, than the whole app stopps and gave me the message:

Then I looked at the web and found, that I have to add the line:
doc.putProperty("IgnoreCharsetDirective", new Boolean(true));"doc." is a new HTML Dokument, created with the HTMLEditorKit. I do not have much knowledge about that and so I hope, that someone can explain me, how I can solve that problem, within my code.

Reading text from a text file(what else!!!!!)

okay to save time here i've managed to read the text from the text file and display in the console
my question is - is there a way to read the text a character at a time, at present i read it as a string, the reason i need a character is that i have to check each character to check for brackets ({[ and [})
public void loadFile() {
          JFileChooser fLoad = new JFileChooser();
fLoad.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.FILES_ONLY);
int result = fLoad.showOpenDialog(this);
File file = fLoad.getSelectedFile();

          String text = new String();
try //exception handler

as listed i have attempted to fill a char array with the characters from the string but when i try to access the array with
public void checkFile(char array[]) {
     for(int i=0; i<array.length;i++) {
     if(array.equals("(")) System.out.println("(");//doesn't work
               System.out.println(array[i]);//works
the if loop gives me an error
C:\Documents and Settings\korbitz\Desktop\bracket\Bracket.java:168: char cannot be dereferenced
any help will be appreciated

if(array.equals("(")) System.out.println("(");//doesn't workinstead try
if(array.equals("(")) System.out.println("(");
You could also try the String methods myString.indexOf() (but you'd have to do one for each char you're looking for)
A better alternative might be using a StringTokenizer
StringTokenizer stk = new StringTokenizer(myString, "({[]})");
if(stk.countTokens()!=1)
// then you must have a bracket/brace dividing your string
}Good luck,

Hello,
Yes, you can use XmlDocument, XmlNodeList, XmlElement, XmlNode etc to read infopath file via code. Just add "using System.Xml" as reference in your solution.
Refer below link with sample code:

Read text from a simple PDF file

Is it possible to extract text from a simple PDF (Non-Interactive) in ABAP? May be using the class CL_FP_PDF_OBJECT ?
Let's say I have a pdf document with a couple of lines of text. How can I read the "actual" text in an ABAP program?
Thanks for your help!

Of course you can do this, but not using the standard SAP/ABAP/Adobe.
Check for the Java library called iText. Now you think you don´t need Java, of course. If you cannot use Java, at least you can check the coding of this library and do it in ABAP for yourself.
But there is no such a tool in standard SAP because why would one buy a Interactive form licence if it would be so easy?

Reading texts from Child's phone from somewhere other than the phone

Is there a way I can read texts my child sends & receives without having her phone (ie from my computer or table)? iMessage is not the solution because not everyone who texts her has an iPhone, not to mention iMessage uses a lot of data (see many scathing posts about this by other members). Technically, it is my phone. I paid for the device, and I pay for the monthly service. While I'm not interested in the mundane day-to-day conversations she has with her friends, it has recently come to my attention that some inappropriate information has been shared via texting. I'd prefer not to take the phone away from her, as it does provide a useful function (ie, my ability to get ahold of her when she is out with her friends), However, I am finding that part of my job as her parent is to monitor what is being sent and. I also have reason to believe she is deleting text messages she does not want us to see. I look forward to any recommendations that can be provided. Thanks!

Unfortunately, with a smartphone this would not be very helpful. For instance, iMessage normally uses data instead of texting for messages to other Apple devices. There are several other apps which ALSO bypass SMS/MMS capabilities alltogether. Blocking texting on a smartphone WILL NOT keep a user from being able to text, it would simply push them into a messaging type which bypasses the SMS/MMS infrastructure and works solely via data.
