Output width

[Former Member]

I was trying to write a simple list with lot of headings.

For example:

WRITE: /6 'TitleA', 29 'TitleB', 55 'TitleC', 80 'TitleD', 106 'TitleE',

131 'TitleF', 157 'TitleG', 172 'TitleH', 198 'TitleI'...goes on..(maybe upto 350)

Is it possible to set the width more than 255? If so, how?

Thanks.

yes it is possible to write the data with more than 255 char. only problem will be you will not be able to print the output as the printer will not print anything after 255 chars. you can see this by creating an output in a spool (SP01).

also when u upload the same data on application server, may be you cannot see the data after 255 char but if you download the uploaded data it will be a complete data i.e. beyond 255 chars.

you can specify length more than 255 it gives no syntax error but it is not possible to view the data( more than 255 ) but you can download that data
