Data Type CString mismatch in Smartforms

Former Member — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 08:19:01 GMT

We have created a Smartform and for printing the BOL details .

For getting the HU details we have used a data type

huident_str TYPE string, ( it is a string type ) .

The intention is that in the Smartform output we will have a final internal table where in all the Handling Unit Details ( HU Details ) would be displayed . But in the output of the smartforms we have a window to display all the Handling unit details .

But what is happening is that we have nearly 100 HU details to de displayed in the same column and each HU is of 10 Char in length . So if we have nearly 52 Items in a single column the expectation is that it needs to display all the 52 line itmes .

So i hope it would require 52* 10 = 520 char in length but since we have declared a data type of string the value is getting truncated . Is there any soilution to increase the data type or else is there any method to display all the details .

Would be great helpful if we could get the necessary information .

Thanks in advance .

Hi Nadesh,

I am giving you some example regarding your string truncation issue u can refer the link also whcih iam giving below.

*Input string

ipstr = '<FT><H><T> Line Clearance </></></>'.

*Removing only "</>"

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '</>' IN ipstr WITH ' '.

*Removing only "<"

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '<' IN ipstr WITH ' '.

CONDENSE ipstr.

*Length of Input String

len = STRLEN( ipstr ).

DO len TIMES.

*Char by Char

ch = ipstr+pos(1).

pos = pos + 1.
