ABAP TEXTS Statement syntax, information and example SAP source code

OBSOLETE
The ABAP/4 key words used for text processing in R/2 have been replaced in R/3 by the following SAPscript function modules:

TEXTS : The text header and the line table must be defined
individually with include structures:

DATA: HEADER LIKE THEAD.
DATA: LINES LIKE TLINE OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.

READ TEXT - CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

INSERT TEXT , UPDATE TEXT - CALL FUNCTION 'SAVE_TEXT'

DELETE TEXT - CALL FUNCTION 'DELETE_TEXT'

EDITOR-CALL FOR TEXT - CALL FUNCTION 'EDIT_TEXT'

MOVE-TEXT : SAPscript does not require a function module for this because the formatted print lines are not returned to an internal table, but direct to the the print output. This is done with the function modules WRITE_FORM or WRITE_FORM_LINES .
