Hello Janapathi
Within the function module you will find the following coding (on ECC 5.0):
FUNCTION dp_stretch_simple_table.
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
*"*"Lokale Schnittstelle:
*" IMPORTING
*" VALUE(COPY_LINES) TYPE ABAP_BOOL DEFAULT ABAP_TRUE
*" EXPORTING
*" REFERENCE(STRETCHED_DATA_REF) TYPE REF TO DATA
*" TABLES
*" DATA
*" EXCEPTIONS
*" DP_ERROR_MULTIPLE_COLS
*" DP_ERROR_NOT_CHARLIKE
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
...
* verify table first, whether it is a 1-column charlike table
PERFORM is_table_structured
TABLES
data
CHANGING
structured " not used!
charlike
field_length
structure_comp_count.
IF structure_comp_count > 1.
" Unsupported table type: The table is structured
RAISE dp_error_multiple_cols.
ENDIF.
IF charlike EQ false.
" Unsupported table type: The table is not charlike
RAISE dp_error_not_charlike.
ENDIF.
...
Based on this coding the internal table containing the text from the textedit control must fulfill two conditions:
(1) The itab must not contain more than a single field
(2) The single field of the itab must be character-like
Looking at method GET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE (of CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT) the text is exported as parameter TABLE (of type STANDARD TABLE). Thus a third condition is:
(3) The itab must be a STANDARD TABLE (not SORTED or HASHED)
Perhaps these comments may be helpful in finding and correcting the error.
