How many characters can outtab-txt hold ?

Look at the internal table that you are using with FM GUI_DOWNLOAD

check your output definition....are you doing something like below? SAP will transfer 1024 bytes per line with GUI_DOWNLOAD. After you download, how do you view the data? Be sure you're looking at the data with something that will show all 1024 bytes, and not jsut 256 or 512.

types: begin of outline,

txt(1024),

end of outline.

data: outtab type table of outline,

ls_out type outline.
