Copying Text (SAP Library - Document Management)

Copying Text

Use

You can copy the following texts:

Import text files in a long text of the document

Export long texts of the document in a local file and save at operating system level.

Procedure

Select the Texts tab page.

Enter the language

Select

(Copy text).

You see the Transfer dialog box.

Select the type of text transfer you want to carry out.

If you want to import text from a local file to the long text you have entered, set the From local file indicator.
If you want to transfer your long text to a local file (at operating system level), set the To local file indicator.

In this second case, the local file is overwritten with the long text from the document info record.

From the Format dataset, choose the format of the long text you want to transfer.
Choose Continue.

You see the Import file or Export file dialog box.

Enter the required file data.

If you want to use the file manager to find a file at the operating system level (for example, Windows NT), display the possible entries for the File field.

Choose Transfer.

The system transfers the chosen text.

If you import text to an existing long text, the system inserts the text after the existing text. The system then goes to the long text editor, where you can edit the text as required.
Save your long text.
If you export long text to a chosen file, you see a message in the OK line after the text has been exported.
The local file now only contains the long text from your document info record.
