i am not sure whether it gets stored in BDS (OAOR). if yes you can use FM BDS_BUSINESSDOCUMENT_COPY to copy .

the class name to use with this

FM will be 'GRAPHICS' class type 'OT' and object key will be <TDNAME><TDID><<TDBTYPE>

Hi Ester,

I can understand your concern about using SE78 for mere change of name.. I don't think there is a function module that does it.. Though the document itself is stored in BDS, it is linked to the BITMAP (TDNAME) in STXBITMAPS via the DOCID. So, there is no need to change anything on the BDS. One option could be to change the name via a custom program that updates the STXBITMAPS Table. here is piece of code.. just in case..

update stxbitmaps set tdname  = 'ZZDA'  "newname
                       where tdobject = 'GRAPHICS'
                         and tdname = 'ZZTEST'  "oldname
                         and tdid = 'BMAP'
                         and tdbtype = 'BCOL'.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
* name changed.
endif.

I've made a small routine....

REPORT ZZ_BB_STXBITMAPS .

Tables: stxbitmaps.

DATA: wa like stxbitmaps.

selection-screen skip.

parameters: p_co radiobutton group g01,

p_ch radiobutton group g01.

selection-screen skip.

parameters: old like stxbitmaps-tdname default 'LOGO ARBEITSAMT',

type like stxbitmaps-tdbtype default 'BMON'.

selection-screen skip.

parameters: new like stxbitmaps-tdname default 'LOGO ARBEITSAMT2'.

if p_ch = 'X'.

*update stxbitmaps set tdname = 'ZZDA' "newname

update stxbitmaps set tdname = new "newname

where tdobject = 'GRAPHICS'

• and tdname = 'ZZTEST' "oldname

and tdname = old "oldname

and tdid = 'BMAP'

• and tdbtype = 'BCOL'.

and tdbtype = type.

if sy-subrc eq 0.

• name changed.

endif.

else.

select single * from stxbitmaps

where tdobject = 'GRAPHICS'

• and tdname = 'ZZTEST' "oldname

and tdname = old "oldname

and tdid = 'BMAP'

• and tdbtype = 'BCOL'.

and tdbtype = type.

if sy-subrc = 0.

move-corresponding stxbitmaps to wa.

wa-tdname = new.

INSERT INTO stxbitmaps VALUES wa.

endif.

endif.

The best answer of all! I used a code inside a LSMW to copy a BMAP to another and worked fine. Thanks!

Hi

Use SE78 use for upload and download graphics.

Use transaction SE78 to inmport graphics to SAP.

In the form painter, you can either include directly to the form using menu Edit->Graphic->Create or using the INCLUDE statement in a window.

To use an INCLUDE stanment, goto into the woindow script editor and use menu Include->Graphic. The include can look like this for a bitmap:

/: BITMAP MYLOGO OBJECT GRAPHICS ID BMAP TYPE BMON

I know about se78 and its functionality..just dont feel like using it as i thought there might be another function just to change the graphics' name that have been stored in the STXBITMAPS.

My task it to rename whatever signature's bmp that has been uploaded to another names.
