Hi Irfan,

if you are validating it in a report just check for the 255 characters if it more than 255 characters display a message.

Logic.

data : ch type char255,

ch1 type c.

ch = field+0(255).

ch1 = field+255(1).

if ch1 is not initial.

display message.

endif.

if you want to do the validation in a screen.

do it on some button click event.

if it is in the selection screen you ahve events for that.

Award points if this is helpful.

Hi Irfan,

When you are uploading the file, u will be using an internal table. so make sure that the internal table field contains the char (255). so when uploading the text it will upload till the 255 characters only rest will be left.

Thanks
