Hi,

OPEN_FORM: This form opens the script. The module OPEN_FORM opens layout set printing.

WRITE_FORM: This form is used to write the content mentioned in the windows of the SAP Script.

START_FORM: This form is dynamically call a page in the script. The layout set can be changed in the current print procedure with START_FORM. This may also be used to trigger a new-spool id.

END_FORM: This form is used to close the current layout set.

CLOSE_FORM: This form close the current SAP script form.

You can have any number for WRITE_FORM, START_FORM and END_FORM, but for a script you can have only one OPEN_FORM and CLOSE_FORM

Reward if useful.

Regards,

Swetha.

The function module OPEN_FORM opens form printing. You must call this function module before you can use any other form function (WRITE_FORM, START_FORM, CONTROL_FORM...).

You need not specify a form name. If you omit the name, you must use the function module START_FORM to open a form before starting the output.

You must end form printing by using the function module CLOSE_FORM. Otherwise, the system does not print or display anything.

Within a program, you can use several OPEN_FORM.. CLOSE_FORM pairs. This allows you to write output to several different spool requests from within one program.

Hi,

OPEN_FORM

The function module OPEN_FORM opens form printing. You must call this function module before you can use any other form function (WRITE_FORM, START_FORM, CONTROL_FORM...).

You need not specify a form name. If you omit the name, you must use the function module START_FORM to open a form before starting the output.

You must end form printing by using the function module CLOSE_FORM. Otherwise, the system does not print or display anything.

Within a program, you can use several OPEN_FORM.. CLOSE_FORM pairs. This allows you to write output to several different spool requests from within one program.

START_FORM

In-between the function modules OPEN_FORM and CLOSE_FORM, you can use different forms. This allows you to combine several different forms into one print output. However, you can combine only those forms that have the same page format.

To switch forms, use the function module START_FORM. If another form is still open, you must close it first using END_FORM.

If you specify no form name when calling START_FORM, the system restarts the last open form. If after OPEN_FORM no form was activated yet, the system leaves the function module with the exception UNUSED.

OPEN_FORM->

To initialize the printing of forms via the Raw Data Interface, use function modules (OPEN_FORM und CLOSE_FORM) and a flag in the form (administration data). For this purpose, the function modules include the additional optional import parameter RAW_DATA_INTERFACE.
