I have a program with a selection screen. If i enter the program name and execute , that program should get arranged i.e. Pretty Printed.

Any Suggessions ?

Hi !

Write a BDC for SE38 where you click the 'Pretty Printer'.

Use this BDC in 'N' mode in your program. This way when you enter the program name and execute your report, Pretty Print will take place for the program you entered on the selection screen.

Regards,

Firoz.

Do a recording using SHDB...

Specify SE38...Program Name...Change button...pretty printer button....activate button....back button....

Now, place this code in your program and when program name is specified it does it...

Hi, I have even tried recording mathod, The ok code for Pretty Printer is =ED_PRETTY_PRINT. In recording, the code is not getting rearranged. Have a look at the code.

PERFORM BDC_DYNPRO USING 'SAPLWBABAP' '0100'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'BDC_CURSOR' 'RS38M-PROGRAMM'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'RS38M-PROGRAMM' P_PRGNAM.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'RS38M-FUNC_EDIT' 'X'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=CHAP'.

PERFORM BDC_DYNPRO USING 'SAPLS38E' '0400'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'BDC_CURSOR' 'RSTXP-TDLINE(01)'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'RSTXP-TDFIRST' '1'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=ED_PRETTY_PRINT'.

PERFORM BDC_DYNPRO USING 'SAPLS38E' '0400'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'BDC_CURSOR' 'RSTXP-TDLINE(01)'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'RSTXP-TDFIRST' '1'.

PERFORM BDC_FIELD USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=ED_PRETTY_PRINT'.

BREAK-POINT.

OPT-DISMODE = 'A'.

OPT-DEFSIZE = 'X'.

CALL TRANSACTION 'SE38' USING IT_BDCDATA OPTIONS FROM OPT.

IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.

ENDIF.

hi friend

the fct code for the pretty printer is '=ED_PRETTY_PRINT'

so with this u can code

just do like this

go to shdb or sm35 start new recording

give ur transaction name

i.e., se38

then just select a program by F4 help select the program which u have already done

and then click on prettty printer

and now save and activate the program

give back

it will take u to the screen consists of bdcdata fields of the recording which u have done.

and now save that recording

and now transfer that recording of the name given by you and transfer to the program

and in that program ur input is nothing but the program name

and if u want some coding u can enter that

and try it , it will work

I have debugged the standard code and adjusted the code accordingly.
