Hi

You cannot provide line size as more than 255

If you want to show output more than 255 characters, you can use horizontal scrollbar

Use SCROLL statement

Thanks Radhika,

can you explain me how to use scroll.

Thanks

The [SCROLL LIST|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPSCROLL.htm] statement is used to force the position of the display of a spool in an ABAP report.

In the first Line itself..

Declare line-size 800 etc.

The field SY-ULINE is defined as 255 characters long (check via SE11 on SYST structure or read [ABAP System Fields |http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABENSYSTEM_FIELDS.htm]), so you cannot use the first 265 characters (that is what SY-ULINE(265) means), try to WRITE: SY-ULINE(255), SY-ULINE(10). (The maximum line size of a report is 1023 - [LINE-SIZE width|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPREPORT_LIST_OPTIONS.htm#!ABAP_ADDITION_2@2@])

HI Sam,

USe this code...

WRITE:/1 sy-uline(254),

254 sy-uline(18).

this way you can extend the uline

I hope this helps you.

Since [Note 454462 - ALV print: Printing width over 255 columns|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/454462] you can print ALV list til 1023 character, you may need to force [print parameter|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABENPRINT_PARAMETERS_OVERVIEW.htm]
