Okay, think I got it.

Let's see... You could create your "table" content as text in SO10 and draw outline box in form itself (e.g. a window), calling the text from this box. Another that happen to my mind now is to "draw" all this table as text in SO10 itself using special characters but it really doesn't sound as an usual solution.

Another one, once this table is static maybe you could upload your table as an graphic (SE78) and then show in your forms...

Sorry if I'm giving some inventive suggestions, it's quite late over here...

Thanks Edgar for your reply.

Yes we can use option SE78.

But in our case values should pick from BOM tables and display them in  SO10 table.If we use SE78 option i think we can't pick values from program.If we draw table in SO10 then we can use program variable to pick BOM data from program.Any suggestion would be great.

If you need more details please guide. Appreciate your help.

Hi Abhis,

Then your table content is variable, not static as I have understood...

At very begining I thought this SO10 approach wouldn't be the best one but wouldn't hurt if try but now I'm sure it's not the best way (once your data could change). Better to use regular data internal table/form table approach, SO10 using is for static texts. Please let me know if you need some directions about how to do this.
