Yang,

Create a paragraph format in a smartstyle as a left-aligned and use this paragraph in the text editor of the script for all the variable which you want to be left aligned.

SMARTSTYLE is a tcode.

if it is a character filed use

condense data.

or use:

shift data left deleting leading space.

if variable is not character type, move the variable to char type variable and then use the above statements...

plz reward points if it helps

Yes, It's good idea.

I still want to know if it can be controlled in SAP Script Form(SE71)

Hi,

Use the statement &symbol (C)& in your script editor.

The C option replaces each string of space characters with a single space and shifting "words" to the left to close gaps. Leading spaces are completely removed.

Hope the above information will helps you.
