SAP script issue

[Former Member]

Hi friends,

we have 3 columns headings as "Name" "position" "Description".

we are displaying the details under them with the help of variables in the MAIN window.

The space allocated for display is 30 char each, but the contents of variables can be 40 chars.

Hence whenever it excludes the "description" length , the values are being displayed in next line.

But we want to display them under current line .

for example.

name position description.

consultant

Instead we want in the below mentioned way.

for example.

name position description.

santosh sw engr SAP ABAP

space--

---

consultant.

Is there any command in script to display under current line.

please help.....it's urgent.

Regards.

santosh.

Not that I know of. I have just tested the length and split it over several lines in the past. Make full use of tabs.

Hi,

I tried the tabs option, that is creating other problems.

Can we not try creating 3 more MAIN windows & displaying the 3 columns seperately?

You can indeed but that can present it's own problems.

Hi Ian,

theoretically i read that we can create 99 main windows in a page.

Is it feasible ? will it work properly in realtime?

Hope u might have created more than 1 windows in a page.

I am supposed to start code changes from tommorow, hence want to know the feasibility ahead of time.

Regards.

Hi Santosh,

I feel in SAP Script no command will do the required action but this problem can be solve if you use table form. In SAP Script by Box command you can design the table.

Box <xpos> <ypos> <width> <height> <frame> <intensity>
