As length of selection screen comment is 83 char.

I have a situation where comment after 83 chars should appear in next line.

i.e comment should be continued to next line automatically.

Hope i'll get solution.

Thanks.

Selection screens are for the purpose of data selection, and not exactly a word-processing page, with features like word-wrap, etc. Thus it's better to split your comment, to make it appear in multiple lines.

In case you're (for some reason) displaying dynamically generated text as comments, I'd suggest to use a some alternative way of displaying it, instead of sel-screen comments. Otherwise, write program to detect the length of the text, and split it into multiple lines of comments.

Why not use two comments? And why do you need to do this anyway?

if you can change to dynpro, try the text editor.
