Hello,

CONTROL_FORM

Use CONTROL_FORM to pass SAPscript control statements to the form.

Function call:

CALL FUNCTION 'CONTROL_FORM'

EXPORTING COMMAND = ?...

EXCEPTIONS UNOPENED =

UNSTARTED =

Export parameters:

COMMAND

Enter the SAPscript statement you want to execute in ITF format, but without the statement paragraph attribute '/:'.

Exceptions:

UNOPENED

The current form function could not be executed, since the form output was no yet initialized using OPEN_FORM.

UNSTARTED

No form was opened yet.

Possible reasons:

The form processing was started using OPEN_FORM without specifying a form name, but no form was opened yet using START_FORM.

The last used form was closed using END_FORM, but no new form was opened using START_FORM.

The last filled page of the current form has no subsequent page. In this case, the system automatically terminates form printing after this page. You need no explicit END_FORM call.

In the current form, no page contains a main window, but a text element shall be output in the main window.

Long Text:

If it s Z text, then you can create it in SO10 Transaction code.

If it is related to a Standard transaction text, then you need to create the text in that transaction only. i mean, lets take an Sales Order example, if you want to create the text, then Goto --> Header -> Text or Goto --> Item --> Texts to create the Texts.

so follow one of the above way to create the texts

good

1->

The function module CONTROL_FORM can be used to create SapScript control statements from within an ABAP program.

Example:

call function ‘CONTROL_FORM’

EXPORTING COMMAND = ‘PROTECT’.

call function ‘WRITE_FORM’.....................

call function ‘CONTROL_FORM’

EXPORTING COMMAND = ‘ENDPROTECT’.

Hi,

Based on the Window size it will print the reocrds, you can resize the main window to fit N number of recrods in it.

You can use the BOX command to print the Vertical lines, use a Dynamic variable for the Height and increase it by 1 for every time for a Line item
