&SAPSCRIPT-FORMPAGES(CL)&

Former Member — Tue, 21 Mar 2006 09:15:19 GMT

Hi all.

we are doing some upgradation from 4.6b to ecc5.0.

I am fasing some trouble in scripts.

for getting the total number of pages ,they used

&SAPSCRIPT-FORMPAGES(CL)& in old system.But in new system while seeing the print preview it is going to dump.

Please let me know what is the purpose of that adding (CL).

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

The CONDENSE option cannot be used on the program icon SAPSCRIPTFORMPAGES

replaced with a value only after the form has been completely edited, since the

total number of pages of a form is first known in the program function

END_FORM or CLOSE_FORM.

However, the symbol size (number of characters) is reserved correctly when the

symbol first occurs, with the current page number. Therefore, only one character

is reserved for option C (CONDENSE).

C means COMPRESSION (it's like the statament CONDENSE)

L means LOCAL DATE (it converts a field date to locale date)

So it's very strange to use these two options together.

I believe the option L is wrong in this case.

Hi.

Thank you very much.

As you said I removed the 'L' from CL,It is working fine.

When I am using 'CL',it is going to dump while seeing the print preview.

But in the previous version(4.6b),they had used CL, working in 4.6b.

Thanks,

Sapscript is sometimes a strange object or has a strange behavior, i.e. no all errors can give a dump.

I think in 4.6B that error didn't give any dump, now in your new release you're obtaining a dump: you're using a best release...I don't know, It depends on your point of view.
