Hi Lalit,

In SE11 declare a domain with CHAR with size 1000 characters and then declare it in your program

You can use this domain type:

CHAR1024_WAO Its length is 1024.

Hope this will help.

types: begin of t_order,

order type aufnr,

end of t_order.

data: it_order type standard table of t_order,

wa_order type t_order.

parameters: p_order type SELSTRING_WAO.

start-of-selection.

split p_order at ',' into table it_order.

loop at it_order into wa_order.

write:/ wa_order-order.

clear: wa_order.

endloop.

Hi Lalit,

Try with select-options instead of parameters.

Because If the length of the parameter is greater than 132, the content is truncated from the right.

Hope this will work.

PARAMETERS: p_test type string. 
DATA: w_i TYPE i.
w_i = STRLEN( p_test ).
WRITE: w_i.

hii

select option will have same problem as if type is character then it will take 132 characters in input field..

so it is better to use type as STRING as it can have 500 char.so try using string type for input parameters.

Hi Latit,

It may not possible to get 500 char input in selection screen.

You can do this way ... take it in two parameters and concatenate that in at selection screen event in to a variable and use it whereever necessary.
