In SAPScripts there's two methods

/: IF &name1& NE &SPACE&

AS NAME: &name1&

/: ENDIF

Or

AS &'NAME: 'name1&

When using quotes inside the && the text only prints where there is a value.

Hi ,

if im right u r using SMARTFORMS .... goto the CONDITION tab of text element put the following ,,,,,

Field Name Relational Operator Comparision Value

name1 Not Equal to Initial

if u r using script

u can write

if &name& is not initial.

name : &name&.

endif.

hope this helps ...

hi,

In your form u code like this.

if &name1& is not initial.

/E NAME : &name1&.

ENDIF.

Then u will get name only when it has value.

Hi Rajesh,

Let us take a simple example.

You are printing vendor name as follows.

Vendor Name: &lfa1-lifnr&

print this as

if &lfa1-lifnr& is not initial.

Vendor Name: &lfa1-lifnr&

endif.

thanks & regards
