Fields in sapscript

Former Member — Tue, 12 Jul 2005 10:16:15 GMT

Hi,

I have some fields in the sapscript but when one of them is empty the others fields move. So how can I set the length of the field so the others fields don't move.

Thanks

This may help you (from SAP Help).

&symbol(length)&

If < symbol> has the value 123456789.

&symbol(3)& -> 123

&symbol(7)& -> 1234567

You can combine an output length specification with an offset specification. The specified length is then counted from the specified offset position.

&symbol+4(3)& -> 567

If your problem is solved please assign points.

As Svetlin mentioned you can control the field position with tabs which can be defined in Paragraph.
