Hi experts,

I have recieved a code which I was told to just copy paste. The problem that occurs is that my code wrap when I paste it even if I have the setting "Disable Word Wrap". Any ideas how I can solve this problem? See pictures below:

Example: Code before copy paste:

Example: Code in the system after copy paste:

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

Hannes de Richelieu

Hi,

Please change the settings in the abap editor; remove the line constraints of 72 characters.

Deselect the check-box: Downwards-Comp. Line Length(72) .

Just be warned, there are still utilities that assume the 72 character limit.  Running code through them will tend to induce syntax errors because they will force word wrap.

This is the solution. Also you can activate the 72 lines limit again after paste.
