Hi,

Text Elements (not symbols) are used to print the exact

values in the correct place from the Program to script

We write

Perform Write_form using <text element/symbol> <window>

so the content of this is exactly printed in that Window and in that Text Element.

Delete the page window(which you don't want to display on that page) from that Page , so that it is not displayed on that page.

reward if useful

regards,

Anji

hi muttu,

There are four types of symbols available in script.

They are

1)standard symbol

2)program symbol

3)text symbol

4)system symbol.

we define the text symbol using,

/: DEFINE &CUST& = '21'.

symbols are placeholders for the values that are inserted during print formating.

Arun.
