Hi All,

Pls let me know how can i display the full long text in a column of a report display. I am getting the long text from the function module READ_TEXT.

This is very urgent

Thanx in advance

Do you have a fixed column width. If so, do you want to break the text up into lengths of that fixed length.

Example...

<b>Sales Order  Item  Material  Long Text</b>
123456       10    6000000   This is the long
                             text of the material
                             6000000 for the 
                             sales order 123456.

If this is what you want to do, then you can try using the function module FORMAT_TEXTLINES to break the text into specific column length. The text will be returned format per line in an internal table.

itab will have matnr, TDLINE.

loop at itab.

write :/1(18) itab-matnr,

40(40) itab-tdline+0(40).

write :/40(40) itab-tdline+40(40).

*--Like that use TDLINE to print.

endloop.

Is the column part of an ALV report or classic report?

May be you can provide a button like any standard SAP transactions do for long text, and show the text in a seperate pop-up screen.
