Dynamic lne size in classical report

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I have a program where depending on the number of fields to be displayed in the report the line-size should be varied so as to avoid scrolling unnecessarily in the report. Is there any way one can change the line-size at run time???

Thanks,

You cannot change the width of individual pages within a list level. You can only change the width of all pages of a new list level. To do so, use the NEW-PAGE statement:

Syntax

NEW-PAGE LINE-SIZE <width>.

All list levels starting from the new page have a width of <width> instead of the one specified in the REPORT statement. If you set <width> to 0, the system uses the width of the standard list .

If you set <width> to SY-SCOLS, you can adapt the width of the new list level to the window width, even if the window is smaller than the standard window. The SY-SCOLS system field contains the number of characters of a line of the current window.

Within a list level, that is, if the next page is not the beginning of a new list level, the system ignores the LINE-SIZE option.

Hi,

You can try to use the system variable SY-LINSZ to change the list width at runtime.

Hi,

check this code,

parameters c_box as checkbox.

if c_box = 'X'.

sy-linsz = 5.

else.

sy-linsz = 256.

endif.

new-page line-size sy-linsz.

write:'12345678901234567890'.

Hi,

you can use the system variable LINSZ and modify the list dynamically.
