Summary :
In an SAP R/3 environment, users encounter an error with the message "Unable to initialize ABAP control framework" while trying to utilize the long text editor on Turkish language settings on Windows 95 or 98. Investigation reveals that the SAPGUI's guilib.dll from release 4.0B cannot properly manage the ActiveX controls required. A workaround involves disabling the ActiveX editor via SE71. Additional steps for Turkish systems include configuring SAPGUI to use specific codepage files to accommodate the active language environment. This approach prevents the system from using the incompatible graphical editor, thus bypassing the error.
