Hi,

It is very easy to create any BOX in script, Below is the command for same,

Create Boxes in the SAPscript using the BOX command specifying 
the x,y co-ordinates and the width and the height

/: BOX XPOS '0' CM YPOS '0.5' CM WIDTH '9.2' CM HEIGHT '3.5' CM FRAME 8 TW

Try with this I know handle a BOX is difficult.

2. You can create a Static Window and can call it on Last Page.. I will work..

1. you can not split a box in its middle or somewhere else, you need two boxes then.

Try F1-help for BOX-statement, it is really a good one and contains all info you need.

2. try to work with text elements (those /E thingies). If you have a static window with something to print in it, which is not referenced to a text element, it will get printed no matter what.

To be able to decide IF and WHEN to print it, use a textelement which you can then call in your driver program.
