Spool output format issue

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am facing an issue when I run one of my custom ALV reports in the background.

There is a one line gap between each line of the output when we check the spool content.

I tried to change the number of columns in the existing printer format to 1023

and also set the SAP spool system settings check box which is

'' SP01:Number of columns from list display from format"

Request your suggesions.

there is a extended view as well in the spool(SP01). can you check that?

Hi,

Thank you for your response. I did choose that option before viewing.

But still the problem is there.

Run a search by 'ALV output background'. If memory serves, there is a 255 character limit for ALV when it runs in background. There might be a note on this too.

Hi,

What I was able to understand is that spool output cannot accomidate beyond 1023 characters.

I created a work writing the content on to Application server files.

Then created a new custom program which will download the application file content to Excel.
