How to use English and Arabic both

[former_member1193316]

Hi SDNers,

I would like to use both Arabic and English in a smart form. I have seen so many threads and they were giving clues to display form either only on language. But I need to display both the languages when i logging into either English or Arabic. How to achieve this, Please guide me.

I am using SAP_BASIS - 731 and GUI 7.30 version.

Regards,

Venkat

Hi,

You can maintain STANDARD TEXTS in SO10 these will help you to display message in any language you want. Now as languages have special characters and formats often some characters cause issues in display. But in your system it should be ok as its UNICODE.

Also check if these are the two languages(English & Arabic) that are active in your system.

Cheers,

If Arabic texts are Static texts you can hardcode it else prgramatically you need to translate !! Which might be a tough task indeed!!

Mine is unicode enabled. If I maintian text at SO10, can I see both english and arabic in same smartform?

Arabic Text is static text only...

If Arabic texts are Static then no need to maintain in Standard texts. Even you can hard code it. Declare a character type variable in Global definition and default the Arabic texts.

Use this variable in Texts blocks of Smartform windows.
