Hi,

<b>MAIN window</b> in which continuous text is printed. This is the window used by dialog users of a print program and form. For example, the body text of a letter would be entered in MAIN. The text in the main window can extend over several pages. If the text fills one page, output continues in the window of the next and subsequent pages, as long as MAIN has been defined for these pages.•

<b>VAR Window</b> with variable contents. The text can vary on each page in which the window is positioned. Variable windows are formatted for each page. To every window you can assign text, which is printed in the corresponding window when the form is formatted. To assign text, use text elements, which are stored with the form. To create and maintain text elements with the SAPscript Editor, choose Text elements. Should the text selected for the window exceed the window size, then the text is cut off.

Regards

Sudheer

Hi Rohan,

Main window means where u r displaing Item level information. The main window is a continous window which can extend over several pages. If the text in the main window fills up a page, a new page is created.

Constant,Variable windows are the same except the contents of the Constant window processed once and printed on each page where as the info of variable window processed for each page. The content of variable window is regenerated on every page. This window can have the variable contents displayed on them. The contents of the window cannot exceed the window size. The content can be formatted for each page.

Regards,

Priyanka.
