Smartform - Template & dynamic texts

Former Member

Hi,

I have a smartform, with each page containing many dynamic texts.

At 1st, I created a Main Window containing the dynamic texts. The problem that I ran into was

that if the main window continued into the next page, the frame around it was missing on the

continuous page.

I have tried working with templates, but her are my problems:

1. In templates, you cannot handle dynamic text. Since each line of the template is created, the text

inside the line cannot expand it. For example, if I had text longer than the line, it would

be cut off - which is a reasonable situation to consider, since the include text might change.

2. If it continues to the next page, the frame is also not retained.

Please help - I really need a solution for this problem.

Thanks,

John

Use Template for only the BORDERS or FRAMES.

Put this TEMPLATE window ahead of the MAIN WINDOW.

User TABLE to print the data in the MAIN window.

Hi,

1. I am unable to separate the Template and the main window. Do I put the template at the end?

2. How do I create a data table in the main window?

Put template before the MAIN window.

Like:

 > TEMP_WINDO
   > TEMPLATE
 > MAIN
   > TABLE
     > HEADER
     > MAIN
       > LINE TYPE 
     > FOOTER
