Hello Everyone !

In between this statement I want a pause.

Hi Vaibhav,

The output screen's are passive in nature and cannot be refreshed, if your intention is to update the user with a message or something, you could use the status bar and issue the messages to the user, or use the FM SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR below is a code snippet using the same.


CALL FUNCTION 'SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR'
 EXPORTING
*   PERCENTAGE       = 0
   text             = 'Hi.........'
          .

WAIT UP TO 5 SECONDS.

CALL FUNCTION 'SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR'
 EXPORTING
*   PERCENTAGE       = 0
   text             = 'Hi22222.......'
          .

WAIT UP TO 5 SECONDS.

Regards,

Chen

Hi,

The FM SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR'

, would give a processing clock and text on status bar, not on the screen. I dont think this could help.

Please verify.
