check this exit EXIT_SAPLEINM_002  in Enhancement MM06E001.

there u need to call function and check whether internal table is empty and make your validations accordingly.

the texts  which are writteh in that type of editor...just as in case of item text:

u would not found them in any table.

Thats why i mentioned in my comment to use the function module 'Read_text'.

i hope u must be aware of how to use that function module and it will return a internal table

containing the texts written on item text.

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
   EXPORTING
 *   CLIENT                        = SY-MANDT
     ID                            =
     LANGUAGE                      =
     NAME                          =
     OBJECT                        =
 *   ARCHIVE_HANDLE                = 0
 *   LOCAL_CAT                     = ' '
 * IMPORTING
 *   HEADER                        =
   TABLES
     LINES                         = t_lines"this internal table m toking abt.
 * EXCEPTIONS
 *   ID                            = 1
 *   LANGUAGE                      = 2
 *   NAME                          = 3
 *   NOT_FOUND                     = 4
 *   OBJECT                        = 5
 *   REFERENCE_CHECK               = 6
 *   WRONG_ACCESS_TO_ARCHIVE       = 7
 *   OTHERS                        = 8
.

now after using this FM...u can validate that if the internal  table is initial...that means nothing has been written in item - Text.

Hi Zahaiqa,

Put a break point in the ENDFUCTION of the Function module mentioned in the Document.

Now Run Transaction ME51N, Do a manual operation of validating the Text Item. For each and every operation the code breaks and will give you the relevant BADI.

Now open SE18 and check that BADI has the Parameters that you need.

Hope this helps.

First use a now classic BAdi for check like ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST (Many threads, use search tool)

Then, remember ME51N is creation transaction, so no text available in database, you have to look/check for the texts in memory, look for FM like GET_TEXT_MEMORY to get a list of the texts currently being created, Of course if you actually want to check the text value, no "space" values,  use READ_TEXT for each of those texts, by default those will be read from memory.
