The things which are already preprinted you don't have to print. you can delete that in your sapscript.

If the colums are preprinted then you must postion your data on a way it fits correct in the columns.

But that is SAP-script. You must know something about how sap-scripts works.

Success

Thank you very much i do know somthing about sapscripts. ......anyway is it possible to loop at the text elements in the form that is se71 or it can only be done from the print program?

In SAPscript your logic is all in the print program unlike smartforms.

As the previous responder suggested there is little difference between printing to a pre-printed form or plain paper other than you do not have to print the heading, labels and borders. This makes it a little more tedious because you have to line up your windows coincide with the form. The worst example of this is cheque printing,

The loop must be done in the print program. From within that loop you call the text element several times with the right data in the sapscript-variables of the text element. Sap-script itself cannot loop.
