Printing space line when text is initial in Table .

[SrihariNerella]

Dear Abapers,

I am working on smartform . I am printing LONGTEXT in my O/P in Table .User entering @ after every line. I am spliting text at @ into different six text fields . when i am displaying the data if text is initial also it is taking space line . I donot want to display extra line when i am printing . I used the Initialization also ( &text1(i) ) it is not giving the result .

Please give me your suggestions.

Hi,

In smartforms, if you do not want to display any field which is initial then in the conditions tab use the condition as e.g TEXT1 # INITIAL for that text node.

what type of variable are they? if its char** variable then ofcourse it will keep the spaces. try by taking them as string.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply . I am taking those fields as string only. I think it is problem with table command . I am printing these fields in table .

ofcourse,

in the table you would have specified them in particular columns right?

even if text comes or not, the column has to come.

hi,

check if yourdata is initial before starting the table.

and do not start the table if initial.

Hi,

Under Table -> Row lines, you have a "CONDITIONS" tab. Key in your required conditions for having the table dispalyed. i.e. fieldname (XYZ) NE '@'.

This essentially checks of this particular line needs to be printed or not.

Let me know if this helps or if you need further assistance on the same.

Thanks,

HI VARUN,

Thanks for your reply . I am using workarea having 5 fields . When i am giving row condition like it is not equal to space . It is not displaying any thing .Because every time any one of the field should be space , long text not more than 5 lines and some times it be 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 . If i give condition of fieldname ne space. It will not work .

if @ is what is used to jump to the next line, try having the condition as the field Contain Pattern (CP) '@'.

If this doesnt help, please help describe your problem more explicitly, so that we could help you with the same.
