If you want to read any long texts or standard texts we use the READ_TEXT FM. ANd to save them we use SAVE_TEXT. Normally these will be the free texts which wont be stored in Database directly. You can view the text ids in the STXH table which can be read.

Hi,

INCLUDEing a text is possible only in SAPscript editor. But in some cases it is required that we fetch the data stored in text objects and display in a report or print in a layout. To reterieve the data we need to use the READ_TEXT FM and in some case we may have to create the text object dynamically while a business document is saved. In such cases we use the SAVE_TEXT to write the data in the text object.
