On the header of the Smartform on the <Output Options> tab, I think you will be able to use the output format field.

Here is the help on this field :

SAP Smart Forms: Output Type

You can select one of the following:

Standard Output

during form processing, the output data is generated in OTF format.

XSF Output

during form procesing, the output data is generated in XSF format.

XSF is an XML-based language that is determined in the SAP Smart Forms DTD.

(for the definition refer to BSP page /bc/bsp/sap/smart_forms/smart_forms_xsf.dtd)

XSF Output + HTML

during form processing, the output data is generated in XSF format as well as any HTML data which the application can send to the browser for display.

XDF Output

there is no form processing, but the data from the interface is

converted to XML and written into a spool request. The parameters are filled with the DDIC type and the time stamp of the last activation.

Hope this helps.

If this fixes the problem, please allocate the points

Thanks

Colin

You do not need to do it in the ABAP code if you follow my last post.
