data v_str type string.

loop at itab.

concatenate v_str itab-line into v_str.

endloop.

CALL FUNCTION 'RKD_WORD_WRAP'

EXPORTING

TEXTLINE = v_str

OUTPUTLEN = 132

TABLES

OUT_LINES = itab

EXCEPTIONS

OUTPUTLEN_TOO_LARGE = 1

OTHERS = 2.

ravi

Hi,

Did you mean "i will get some characters <b>from line2 of the internal table</b> to satisfy the 132 of the line1"??

Thanks,

Naren

Please try and use the below logic.

*itab is the table where you have the lines.

itab1[] = itab[].

Loop at itab1.

lindx = sy-tabix - 1.

check lindx > 0.

read table itab index lindx.

lstr = itab-line.

llen = strlen ( lstr ).

if llen < 132.

lvar = 132 - llen.

write itab1-line(lvar) to lstr1.

concatenate lstr lstr1 into itab-line.

modify itab lindx.

write itab1-line+lvar(132) to lstr1.

itab1-line = lstr1

lnindx = lindx + 1.

modify itab1 index lnindx.

endif.

endloop.

Alternatively, try this also:

loop at itab.

concatenate v_str itab-line into v_str.

endloop.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_STRING_TO_TABLE'

EXPORTING

I_STRING = v_str

I_TABLINE_LENGTH = 132

TABLES

ET_TABLE = itab

hi, ravi,

thanx for the function modules but i cant use them for there's an error coming when i run the fm's. first in rkd_word_wrap, ur textline is not valid to v_str.

in 'CONVERT_STRING_TO_TABLE'its the table that has a problem for when im making my internal tablt type 'table', this 'table' is an error for its a generic.

thanx, hope u can help me how to use this.

regards,
