hi kk,
text modules:
these r like global texts, which we created once can be used in any smartform.
u can create this in t-code: smartforms
select the radio button text modules, in the editor give the text which u want.
to use this in our form:
select the window -> create text
in genaral attributes -> text type -> select text module
give the name, language(generally en) which u created. then it gets the text which u gave in text module.
note: when using existing text modules, as we r not aware of text size, it is better to use them in main window. so that we wont lose any data.
hope it helps u. reward if helpful.

Text Module in SMARTFORMS

Hi ,
I am trying to append a text at the end of main window at any page ..when ever main window ends.for this I created a text module in transaction SMARTFORMS.and tried to add it into the form when I am doing it ..How should I select the options in the TASK KEY..there are 4 things to be filled
TEXT NAME :
TEXT OBJECT : ???
TEXT ID :??? (I am doing a print doc for deliveries)
LANGUAGE
Anyone help me out of this ASAP

If you created a text module that you want to include in your form, you don't refer to it like that.
Once you selected the area / window your text should be in, right-click on the window name, select Create -> Text. Then, in the 'General Attributes' tab, you have to change the type to 'M' (Text module). On the next screen, you just specify the name of your text module that you want to include and the language key. You can specify under 'Conditions' that your text should only be displayed before or after the end of the main window (or whatever your requirement may be).
Now if you want to include an already existing text (that you created via SO10, for instance), then you have to select the type 'I' instead. For SO10 texts, the text object will be TEXT, and you should know the other three parameters if you were the one creating the text. Obviously, the text object will change to another value if you want to include an application-dependent text - then, as it was mentioned, SE75 will help you find the proper object name.
I'm not sure where do you see the "options in the TASK KEY"... hope this helps a bit though.

What is the Use of Text Module Radio buton in Smartforms

Hi all,

Text modules
Text modules are used to centrally store texts that are used frequently in forms in the system.
Text modules are included in forms using texts nodes. The text node can either refer to the text module or take its text. You can then change the text or add to it to suit the form.
Text modules have the following attributes:
They are client-independent
They are connected to the transport system
They are connected to the translation tools in the system
The third attribute means that a text module can be uniquely assigned to a language using the logon language. When including a text module, you can also access translations of the text module, for example, to include an English text module in a German form.

for changing the smartform and scripts use there methods..
1. goto se63>translation->abap objects->other long texts->FS Forms and Styles---> for scripts use Forms
                                       for smartforsm use SAPSmart form
                                       for styles use Styles
2. goto se71->utilities->original language.---> source lang
(for scripts)                                                     target lang

How can I edit a Text Module in Landscape

Hi to all,
I would like to create a new Text Module in Smartforms and I would like to know if the graphic editor, similar to MS-Word, can be setup to display the page in Landscape?
My text is always edited in Portrait format and I would like to avoid calculating my characters to fit in a larger landscape presentation format.
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Best regards,
Sylvain

Hi,
Thank you all for your answers but I still have the same issue.
@ Hari,
I tried your procedure and found that I was using DINA4 as a default page format. In SPAD this format was defined for Portrait and Landscape. I created a new page format ZDINA4 with a larger width but the text module presentation remains the same. I only defined the landscape record and I have the same result by clicking Print Layout or Draft. Do you know if this page format has an influence on the Text Module presentation? I would like to put the ruler much wider that it is locked at 21. Any suggestion on how to enlarge the ruler?
@ Adrian,
Yes I know how to set up the page format in the Smartforms itself but I am talking about the text module. My key user will create the Text Module and I would like to have the same width as my landscape page in the form. If will make things easier for the user to make the data entry since it looks like MS-Word except for the Portrait/Landscape issue. Any idea?
Thank you in advance for your suggestion.
BR,
Sylvain

Text module

Hi friends,
Could any one tell me what is "Text module" in Smartforms.
How we use them in Standard Smarforms .
With Regards,
Ramesh.

Hi ramesh,
In smartform there are three text types:
Text element : to enter new text in the PC editor
Text module : to include a text module
 Include text : to include an existing SAPscript text
The texts are displayed in the form using text nodes. The only exceptions are addresses. This uses its own node. The predecessor node of the text node determines its use:
Predecessor node Used to
Sub window Position text on one or more pages
Main window Display text in relation to other nodes in the main window,
 it may cover several pages
Template Displays texts for table cells of a static table
Table Display table contents
Header and footer Display column headings and grand totals in tables
Event node Display subtotals in a table
Including text modules:
Text module of the text node is used to refer to an existing text module in the system. The text modules can be used in two ways:
STEPS :
1) Refer to the text module. The text then appears read-only in the PC editor and
 is included when the form is printed.
2) Copy the text module. The system then copies the text of the module and
 automatically converts the text node into an editable text element.
3) To create a text node , call the context menu for that node in the tree
 structure that shall contain the text and choose create->text
4) Enter a unique name for the node and a description
5) On the general attributes tab select the text type text module
6) Enter the name of the text module in the text name field

Problem related to language translation in Smartforms using Text Module.

I have done translation of text module from English (enUS) to Spanish (esSP) using SE63. In text node I have used this translated text module. Language of the node is selected as sy-langu. So when I logged into System in English language I should be able to see the output in English but it giving output in Spnaish. While debugging sy-langu value is 'E'.

hi,
You have a text in english and you have maintained the translation in Spanish, mention the original text in the SmartForm. in this way when your login lang is EN you will see that text in Eng and if the lang is Spanish you will see the translation in the output.
Thanks.

Smart form Text module translation and Standard text

Hi i have a requirement in smartforms in which i need to create text modules and transtale into diffrent languages.
I have created text modules they are in my transport,
when i am translating through SE63 into target language it is not asking for any transport request , Can any one help me regarding how i can assign Transaltion thing to my transport.
Another thing is i require to use standard text, i am not much aware of it also as per my understanding i need to create it through SO10 Transaction , and i can use it in include text please correct me if i am wrong, i need this standart text also in two language but while creating standard text it is not asking transport request, and how i would convert standard text in diff lang and how can i assign to my transport.
Surely i would provide points for the valid reply.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Gudia San,
To transport Standard text, use the standard Report Program RSTXTRAN, execute it, on the selection screen, enter your standard text name as
Text key - name, press F8, it will display a ouput list. Now press F5 key and it will ask for transport request number.

Abdul.
