Output length Problem

Former Member — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 07:53:25 GMT

I am displaying output in output list. Each record has a length 600. So in output it is displaying only 255. How can I display length 600 in output. Already I declared output field as u201Coutput type stringu201Du2026Even though it is not displaying 600 length..

Please help it out.

Thanks

You can split the text in 2 or three and display in three cols.

hi,

if your output list has a length of 600 characters,declare a variable with length of 600 characters.

eg:

data : v_length type char600.

once you declare this varible pass on the output list to this variable then you will get the entire output.

hope this helps.

Thanks,

Hi,

first, you should use "LINE-SIZE" value to your report declaration :

if you try this

REPORT my_report LINE-SIZE 600 .

DATA v_line(600) TYPE c .

TRANSLATE v_line USING ' .' . WRITE : / v_line .

{/code}

it will create a window 600 cols wide, but the dot line will stop at 255 chars. If you use F1 key on "LINE-SIZE", you will read :

"For very wide lists (LINE-SIZE > 255), you should consult the notes for using LINE-SIZE greater than 255. "

maybe an alv would be more suitable ?

if you are writing data on to a file the trailing spaces will be cut off.

Is that your issue now?

If yes

and if you want to have 600 characters

declare the variable with length 602

for the last 2 characters put cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.

clear the last but one character

and

TRANSFER record TO file_name NO END OF LINE.

outarea(5000),

END OF gt_outfile.

and move the record

for eg:
