Routing long text editor change

Hi,
When we go to Routing long text and try to open it, it will open one word document.
My requirement is, I want to change that word document as Notepad (text editor) for particular user.
Please tell me is it possible to change that word doc to text doc, If yes then how to make settings?
Regards,
Chetan

  • How to open "change long text" editor on a button click

    Hi,
    I have 4 long text boxes alligned vertically and a button beside them on a screen.
    My client has the following requirement:
    -- When this button is clicked, a "change long text" editor should open, the user will make his changes here and when back button is clicked, all the information in the editor should get transferred to the 4 text boxes.
       (the functionality should to similar to the big custom control box and the "Create Text" button beside it (in the Subject block) in IW52 transaction except that the custom control should be replaced with the 4 Text boxes).
    Please help, How could I achieve this?

    Cheacked the SAP given programs / pakages and solved the problem.
    Thanks.

  • Long Text Editor displaying & incorrectly.

    Hi Experts,
                    Currently I am facing an issue that the & sign is not being displayed correctly in the Long text editor. It is shown as '<(>&<)>' in some places and '&' in others. I understand that the <(> symbol is used as protection for special symbols like &, however this is occuring in some places and not in others. Is there any package which fixes this  problem??
                      Please help.
    Thanks,
    Aditya.

    Hi Naimesh,
                       My problem is not with the display of variables in the editor. Consider the case wherein transactional data is displayed in Long text. For example if you go to IW22 and decide to change the text for the notification description. In case you give a & sign in the long text -  it will be converted to  - '<(>&<)>' , when I log on to see the changes I made the next time. However I want the editor to stop this conversion. Please reply.
    Thanks ,
                 Aditya.

  • Char. formats(Bold, Underline) in Long text editor not visible in ABAP WD

    Hi ABAP experts,
    Problem:
    I have created long text with using bold and under line formats in long text editor (FM TEXT_ EDIT). I am trying to show same text in WebDynpro using READ_TEXT FM. But FM READ_TEXT is getting long text with HTML tags as shown below for bold and underline and it long text showed as same in WebDynpro application with HTML tags.
    Long text shown in webdynpro:
    Type your message using the form below. When finished, you can
    optionally preview your post by clicking on the <H>"Preview"</> tab.
    Otherwise, click the <U><H>"Post Message"</></> button to submit your
    message immediately.
    Is there any function module available to change format and pass to WebDynpro context?
    Thanks
    Rajesh Yadla

    The normal text editor in Web Dynpro won't handle HTML tags (they get safe encoded as you described).  In NetWeaver 7.01 we do introduce a FormattedTextEditor that allows for such formatting. There are APIs to convert from SAPScript based texts to the XHTML FormattedText tags.

  • Long text editor - sign problem

    Hi,
    Currently I am facing an issue that the & sign is not being displayed correctly in the Long text editor. It is shown as '<(>&<)>' in the transaction once I input my value in the graphical editor , save and come back.
    Please help...
    Thanks

    Hi Sandra,
    I am also talking about the same issue in IW32 and the internal SAP program is not doing a correct conversion due to which the wild characters are entered into the long text window on IW32.
    I received an answer for my OSS note and they say it is how the system is ..please see the comments from SAP below ...
    26.08.2011 - 12:37:23 CET - Reply by SAP             
    Hi,
    I am sorry, but the behaviour which you describe is correct.
    I will try to explain the meaning of the special characters and
    why they have to be there: In Sapscript there are some characters,
    which have a special meaning. E.g. a '&' starts a symbol, a '<'
    starts a character format, etc. So if you use e.g. a '&' in your
    text, this Sapscript needs the information, whether the '&' shall
    start a symbol or whether it shall be printed as '&'.
    So if you want to print the '&' as '&', the character must be masked.
    This is done via the characters <(>...<)>. So when you enter
    a '&' (and when it is not sure, whether it may start a symbol),
    the Sapscript internally saves the character as <(>&<)>.
    Usually this should be no problem: If you process the text via
    the Sapscript, you will not notice the masking characters. The
    graphical editor will not display them. And if you print the text
    via a Sapscript form or a Smartform, you will not see them.
    Only if you look into the internal table, which is returned
    by EDIT_TEXT or READ_TEXT, you will see the characters.
    (and the old Sapscript editor displays them, too, because it
    is displays the text in the Sapscript-internal format).
    If you process the internal table yourself, you must take this
    into consideration. E.g. if you want to convert the
    Sapscript-internal ITF format which is returned by EDIT_TEXT
    into 'normal' text format, you can use the function module
    CONVERT_ITF_TO_ASCII.

  • Long text  editor called  from report

    Hi All,
    I  have a requirement of displaying long text editor(like the one used for sap script) for maintaining the details for each PO in report column.A similar example is transaction SO10.I will be thankful  if anybody can help in this regard.
    Thanks,
    Sanjay.

    Hi,
    You will have to use the FM: READ_TEXT, EDIT_TEXT, SAVE_TEXT to achieve this functionality.
    This will basically open the text editor as a pop up box ( size will be as sap script editor) for entering some comments against a Purchase Order.
    For this FMs, you 'll require Text id, text name, text object and language as parameters to be passed.
    thead-tdname = 'Purchase Order No'. " Name
    thead-tdid = 'ZQH1'.               " Text ID - E.g. To be created in your system
    thead-tdobject = 'VBBK'.   " Texts: application object
    thead-tdspras = sy-langu.       " Language Key
    Hope this helps.

  • Standard LSMW to load Routing Long text

    We are migrating data to sap for Routings. We are using SAP best practices to load the data into sap using idocs. But we dont have idoc structure to load Long Text.
    Do you know a LSMW standard direct input to upload the routing long text.
    Please help me out.

    Yes, you can upload long texts to pretty much any application, routings, boms, material masters, etc.
    In LSMW select the following direct input method:
    Object               0001   Long texts
    Method               0001   (No selection)
    Program Name         /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_IMP
    Program Type         D   Direct Input
    You can define the following as constants in field mapping and conversion rule.
    TDOBJECT C(010) Text: 'ROUTING'
    TDID C(004) Text ID : 'PLKO'           <<< if you're uploading to header
    TDSPRAS C(001) Language : 'EN'
    TDFORMAT C(002) Paragraph format for text line : '*'
    If you want upload to operations etc look at the following table
    ROUTING     PLFH     Long Text
    ROUTING     PLFL     Long Text
    ROUTING     PLFT     Long text
    ROUTING     PLFV     Long Text
    ROUTING     PLKO     Long Text
    ROUTING     PLPH     Long text
    ROUTING     PLPO     Long Text
    internally SAP stores, routing group with zeros padded on the left. For example if your routing group is 200 it will be stored as 00000200 so in your flat file either you have to pad the zeros or in the LSMW you need to use the conversion exit function module.
    You can following link below if you want to deeper understanding on this subject.

  • Routing Long text not populated using LSMW

    I need help with the ROUTING LONG TEXT using LSMW. I'm using the standard LSMW direct input program /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_IMP . I'm confused with NAME field while loading the data. I have tried to create the routing long text manually after successful creation i opened the Longtext at header screen and opened GOTO--> HEADER there i have seen TEXT NAME is constructed based on CLIENT || N || GROUP || GROUPCOUNTER || INTERNAL_COUNTER (CLIENT||N||PLNTY||PLNNR||PLNAL||ZAEHL - field names)  I used the same logic to construct the test data for another routings which were created and doesn't have the long text. I have run the lsmw program and executed successfully but when i open the routing in CA03 i dont see the long text populated.
    Test data used looks like this:
    OBJECT   NAME TDID SPRAS TEXTFORM TEXTLINE
    ROUTING N500000890100000001 PLKO E * THIS IS A TEST1
    ROUTING N500000890100000001 PLKO E * THIS IS A TEST2
    ROUTING N500000890100000001 PLKO E * THIS IS LINE3
    ROUTING N500000910100000001 PLKO E * LONGTEXT1
    ROUTING N500000910100000001 PLKO E * LONGTEXT2
    My question here is do i need to construct the NAME as i have mentioned above or do i need to just send the Routing Group number into the file for the NAME field. Help me understand what do i need to populate into NAME field.
    Please help with the mistake i have done.
    Pretty much appriectiated for your replies.

    You asked the same question in two different forums multiple times:
    Standard LSMW to load Routing Long text
    Re: LSMW : Long text not visible after the import of data
    Please use same one thread for one question.
    I gave you most of the needed information assuming you know how to do LSMW in the first thread itself.
    You need to have the following fields in your source structure in addition to other fields like long text
    MANDT
    PLNTY
    PLNNR
    PLNAL
    ZAEHL
    In the step Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules  assign the source field MANDT to the variable NAME and then again place the cursor on the variable NAME and assign variable PLNTY, (now you have two source field assigned to same variable) similarly assign all the remaining 3 source fields PLNNR, PLNAL, ZAEHL. (now you have 5 source field assigned to same variable).
    Now select the variable NAME by placing the cursor click on Rule (Insert Rule) and select the radio button Concatenation .
    Make sure that in  your input file you have leading zeros for PLNNR PLNAL and ZAEHL etc. like below
    50000089, 01, 00000001
    Also, you don't need maintain the value of OBJECT, TDID, SPRAS, TEXTFORM as source fields. You can directly maintain them as constants in Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules by click on the push button Rule .

  • How to use long text editor in Webdynpro

    hi ,
    I want to use text editor in webdynpro.  I want to save the data in  long text.
    My requirement is the format of data should remain same(It should not get changed).
    Thanks
    SK

    Hi,
    use text editor uielement and bind it with a attribute of type string.  convert this string into a table using function module
    fill another internal table which is type compatible with table of SAVE_TEXT function module.
    CONVERT_STRING_TO_TABLE. Call the function module SAVE_TEXT to save this text. 
    you need to find proper tdobject and tdid value which is to be passed in importing parameter "header".
    similarly use FM "READ_TEXT" and convert the returned data into string using FM CONVERT_TABLE_TO_STRING.
    Bind the returned table to an attribute of your context. The data will be displayed in the same format in which you entered it.

    I am not preety sure why on saving teh typed text it chnages to this format.
    I would like to have my program save it as is typed. Is this possible to do so
    and how?
    Thanks.

    Hi Aarav,
    Check the internal table used to store the text is having line length 100. Change that to 200 or more . You can see the difference . If still the problem persists, enter each line in the text editor and conclude each line with a carriage return( ENTER ) 
    key press.
    Hope this will help you.

    Excellent Eitan,
    Here is what I am trying to Achieve.
    In Create Notification IW21 , They need 5 Long Text in Custom Tab ( Say Tab Name is MBR ).
    TAB1 NOTIFICATION Standard Information , TAB2 REFERENCE OBJ , TAB 3 MalFunction , Breakdown Standard one...... TAB 7 ( Custom Tab ).
    In Custom Tab , I added 5 LONG TEXT ( its 5 WHY Concept ).
    When the User enters data in 5 Long text , it should store long text along with Notification number when save.
    But Notification number will be generated @ the time of SAVE , but before that its just shows as
    %0000000001 ( and Number will be generated 1000065479) at Save.
    How to achive this .
    I did this:
    Added 5 Custom Container. and In PBO / PAI
      PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
    MODULE STATUS_0100.
    PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
    MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100.
    IN PBO
       CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR1 ,    CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR2,    CREATE OBJECT TEXT_EDITOR3 like wise 5
       CALL METHOD TEXT_EDITOR1->SET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE ,    CALL METHOD TEXT_EDITOR2->SET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE .. Like wise 5 , So when the user Click on Custom Tab ( MBR ).
    It give 5 Long text.
    When he click tab1 or tab2 or tab3 .. and again tab MBR , still data is available.
    How to store this data for future retrival ( IW22 or IW23 ) ?
    Its working fine when I enter first time and goes here and there and finall save .
    IN SAVE BADI , I imported the Long text and created Standard Text SO10 with Notification Number with LONG1 , LONG2 .. means 1000065479LONG1 as standard text.
    But not working when I entered first time and go to tab1 and tab2 and then to MBR tab and added few more lines , its not exporting full lines and in IMPORT ( SAVE BADI ) giving ZERO Lines.
    Please help and thanks for your quick response.
