To Convert a Table Control into a Text Editor in Module Pool Programming

Hi SDN,

I am having a requirement that i has to convert a table control into text editor in modulepool programming.

so the user enters a long text in the converted text editor , it should be read from the editor and should be saved in a custom table.

i had seen some posts in SDN regarding my doubt, but most of them suggested to use custom control instead of table control, but i cant use a custom control because the requirement was given as table control only.

please help me , how to convert a table control into a test editor?

is there are any datatype that can store upto 2000 characters?

Thanks,

Phani.
