'&' symbol is not printing in smartform output.

[thangam_perumal]

Hi experts,

                         I am facing problem while printing  '&'   symbol using READ_TEXT FM  in smartforms .

I have maintained header text in PO header in that text am using special characters like

"&"  , . While displaying this data in out put it is giving junk characters like 

>(>&<)<   .   if use same function module in SAP script its working well but problem is smartforms output.

thanks in advance,

hi perumal ,,

Replace '>(>'  '<)<' with spaces in the string you are trying to display after read_text...

Hi Thangam,

Please try with this code as a refrence..

DATA: V_TYPE TYPE CHAR10 VALUE '>(>&<)<'.     

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '>(>' IN V_TYPE WITH SPACE.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '<)<' IN V_TYPE WITH SPACE.

WRITE : V_TYPE.

Try with this after read text funtion module......

Thanks,
