Increasing line size in program

Former Member — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 06:49:25 GMT

Hi,

Iam getting the following error that Literals that take up more tha one line is not permitted.

I want to give all the data in single line. But it is coming in the second line.

How to increase the line size.

Thanks.

HI,

see this code.

u can write the literals in more than a line using '&' symbol.


data :var(30) value '213213213423123412341'
      & 'abcd'.
write:/ var.

rgds,

Hi,

It could be because of the literal will overlap to next line as follows,

Text = ' ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRST

UVWXYZ'.

It will cause the problem.

So make it as

Text = ' ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'.

Reward points if helpful.
