Increasing Table Span

Former Member — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 07:47:31 GMT

Hi,

I have generated a table maintenance screen for a view. This screen spans only half the screen, so I have to scroll to the right to see the last 3 fields. What do I need to do to avoid this horizontal scrolling?

Thanks,

Rohan.

Hi Thien,

I navigated to menu -> Environment -> modification -> screen, as suggested by you. But here I am not able to find any option to increase the size of the table control.

I see 'Lines/Columns' with 'Occupied' columns as '61 - 83'. These are not modifiable.

Hi,

If you can drag your mouse to increase size. if not:

double-click on table control -> change vis. length in attribute of your table control.

Hi Thien,

The visible length is shown as 83. But when I try to change it to 200, I get this error:

Screen limit exceeded (61 lines, 83 columns)

Hi friend,

Issue occurs because your back screen do not wide enough when you increase size of table control. So, In layout mode of screen, instead of select table control click on grey screen point your mouse to edge there will be an arrow to allow you span your screen.

hope it help,
