Hi Senthilkumar,

It is one of the problems in SAPScript where you cannot draw lines or boxes dynamically.

However, you can use Smartforms to do this easily.

The other solution may be to draw the table to the maximum possible height of the main window. Other than this I think there is no such posibility in SAPScript.

Box command is used to draw a table with single column. If you have multiple columns, you need to use those many box commands.

For BOX command

/: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]

need to pass x position, y position, width, height.

In your case you can use variable sfor the same. After each record display update height variable with the height of each row. In this way you can display dynamic boxes/ tables.

Hi Ashish,

You can draw boxes only statically like.

BOX XPOS '3.4' CM WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT '8.2' CM FRAME 10 TW

But you cannot pass values in BOX command like:

BOX XPOS <b>&xpos&</b> CM WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT <b>&height&</b> CM FRAME 10 TW

HI senthil

you have to use the BOX command in the SAPSCRIPT using which you can draw the table in script.

in the starting of the MAIN WINDOW draw a horizontal line and then display your vairables

in end again draw a horizontal line to close the table.

the height of the vertical line will the number of records in the internal table.

the vertical line can be drwan uisng

BOX XPOS 10 YPOS 20 width 0 CH hieght <rowcount> CH.
