why are you using start_form, it is not required. use open_form, write_form, close_form.

CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'
EXPORTING
FORM = 'ZTEST'
LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU
.
loop at it_mara.

CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
EXPORTING
WINDOW = 'MAIN'
ELEMENT = 'TEST'

EXCEPTIONS
ELEMENT = 1
FUNCTION = 2
.

endloop.

CALL FUNCTION 'CLOSE_FORM'


IMPORTING 
RESULT = 
RDI_RESULT = 
TABLES 
OTFDATA = 
EXCEPTIONS

UNOPENED = 1 
BAD_PAGEFORMAT_FOR_PRINT = 2 
SEND_ERROR = 3 
SPOOL_ERROR = 4 
CODEPAGE = 5 
OTHERS = 1.

. 
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.

MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO 
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
