Filename length in Selection-Screen Parameter

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

Got to know that the maximum length of the Parameter in Selection-Screen is 132.

I've also searched in the SCN forums but none of the thread was related to Filename.

I've a requirement where in I'm passing the Filename in the Parameter. The length of the Folder path is more than 180 characters.

I'm unable to add the Default value to the parameter.

How can I do this? Please advise.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

I think you can split it into two parameters!

1. folder path

2. file name

Finally you can concatenate these two into a string!

The Folder path itself is longer... kiran..

Even you need o bifurcate the folder path and concatenate!  or

need to do with call screen ( I mean module pool )

In the report call the screen and design folder name with the required length! Check program

Hi Sowmya,

You can declare the parameter for File name with some data element asTEXT200 etc, on screen it will look small but it will accomodate whole file/folder path and than you can use this paramenter further in program.

Hi,

As Ganesh Mentioned try that way, or create  the parameter of type string, it will solve ur purpose.
