Hi,

Set the IMPORT parameter 'OPTIONS' for this FM and make DIALOG as space in the import param.

Hi Edgar,

There is a structure called as ITCPP - SAPscript output parameters and ITCPO - SAPscript output interface.

With the function modules PRINT_TEXT and OPEN_FORM, you can set output formatting and print control using the parameter OPTIONS. The data you pass to this parameter must have the structure ITCPO. The fields of this structure come from the areas SAPscript, the spool, and SAPcomm. Some of these fields can be changed by the user on the selection screen, if you requested it using the parameter DIALOG with the above function modules. The print program evaluates these changes using the corresponding fields of the parameter RESULT.

For e.g

CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'

EXPORTING

FORM = SPACE

LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU

DEVICE = 'PRINTER'

DIALOG = 'X'

<u><b>OPTIONS = ITCPO</b></u>

............................

So in the options you can pass that structure, so that all the values to be changed can be done through that.

P.S. Mark all helpful answers for points.

Regards,

JLN
