Hi All

I am designing an SAp Script and to place the fields in the window i am using paragraph tabs and for a single line i gave 10 tab positions.Now my problem is that the tab is working until 8 positions and after that the tab is not working.Also i checked the window length it is quite wide for accomadating the fields.Please suggest me if u have any ideas.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

The length of the fields might be the problem. For checking this use the fields with smaller length.

R u specifying the tab positions with starting position.?? otherwise default 5 spaces will be taken for each tab. Please check this.

Hi,

you may try to use formatting options, like i.e. &symbol(7)& causing the output to take exactly 7 spaces.

Usually the problem is that the output without formatting options will take the full output length of the underlying domain - including the sign and country-specific output formatting.

So, if the previous symbols output goes over the next tab position, this tab will not be processed - tabs are always found right of the actual text position.

You may see the output formatting and length going throuigh sapscript debugger step by step.
