Input Screen fields are not showing the description

[Former Member]

Hi

I have copied a program, generated using SQVI, to a Zprogram, say Ztest, and when I execute this Ztest the description of the fields on selection screen are coming as SP$00001, SP$00002 and so on.

however if I execute the query made using SQVI the field description are the field descriptions.

Can anybody help me resolve this, to show the field description in ZTest also.

Thanks in advance!

Edit your screen texts via GOTO->Text Elements->Selection texts

Thanks for your quick reply, however I dont have Text element option in the Goto Menu.

I am using SAP 4.7 version, donno if that makes any difference.

I am checking this after executing the Ztest program in Se38. Hope thats where you meant!

Kindly revert back

Thanks in advance

BP is talking about your Z program (from SE38), before execution.. Once you are in edit mode for your z program, you can go to text elements, go to -> text elements -> selection texts.

Hi Khnna,

when you copied the program you did not copy the texts.

In original and copied program, menu Goto Texts Selection texts. No difference?

Thanks BK, Kris and Clemens

I can see what need to be done as you guys told, in addition can you please let me know-- can I copy texts via SE80, as when I am copying the text in Se38, it needs a separate transport.!! Or is it the standard way using SE38!!

Thanks in advance

Hi khanna_rahul,

since quite a long time (10+ years) I do not use SE38 any longer - partly to avoid such errors as you are confronting now. In SE80 object tree, right mouse click on report, copy, in the popup mark everything, give new name(s) and that was it.

For you it will be easier to just copy and paste between two sessions of report texts. Don't worry, system will ask for transport.

N.B.: who does have much time and is willing to use it for useless tasks, will stick to SE38 until SAP removes it.
