Hi Yuvraj,

One method to provide headings to each column in the table is like this.

First create the outer box with the following details(say)

BOX WIDTH 14 CM HEIGHT 10 CM FRAME 5 TW INTENSITY 1

Now give the headings to the columns using tabs in the paragraph settings or using spaces.

For eg: NAME,,INCOME,,DEPARTMENT

Now draw a horizontal line under the columns

BOX XPOS 0 CM YPOS 2 CM WIDTH 15 CM HEIGHT 0 CM FRAME 5 TW INTENSITY 1

Now give the vertical lines for separating the columns(<b>under the assumption that the first tab position is at 7.6CM second at 10.7 CM</b> )

BOX XPOS '7.6' CM YPOS 0 CM WIDTH 0 CM HEIGHT 5 CM FRAME 5 TW INTENSITY 1 " First vertical line

BOX XPOS '10.7' CM YPOS 0 CM WIDTH 0 CM HEIGHT 5 CM FRAME 5 TW INTENSITY 1 "third vertical line

Now you can loop the table and draw the remaining horizontal lines to create a table and fill the values.

Reward points if found useful..

Hi,

It is much easier to draw boxes using smartforms.

If the requirement has the flexibility to use either Sap script or smartforms, then opt for smartform.

Coding is not required for boxes.

Best regards,
