Use this piece of code.It will suppress dialog box & It will Print automatically.

REPORT z_forms NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING MESSAGE-ID zhrt.

* Variable Declaration
DATA : v_form_name TYPE rs38l_fnam,
itab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF pa0001,
w_ctrlop TYPE ssfctrlop,
w_compop TYPE ssfcompop,
w_return TYPE ssfcrescl.

SELECT * FROM pa0001 INTO TABLE itab UP TO 5 ROWS.
SORT itab BY pernr.
DELETE ADJACENT DUPLICATES FROM itab COMPARING pernr.

DATA: control TYPE ssfctrlop,
control_parameters TYPE ssfctrlop,
output_options type SSFCOMPOP.

control-preview = 'X'.
control-no_open = 'X'.
control-no_close = 'X'.
control-no_dialog = 'X'.
control-device = 'PRINTER'.
output_options-tddest = 'LOCL'.
OUTPUT_OPTIONS-TDNOPRINT = 'X'.
OUTPUT_OPTIONS-BCS_LANGU = SY-LANGU.

CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_OPEN'

hello,

as you said i can see the print preview for a range of documents without the dialog

box being pop up again n again,

but i am not able to take the print of the preview now

and also no spool request is generated

i am giving NEW SPOOL REQUEST option in the OUTPUT OPTIONS, but

still it is not coming in the spool SP01

also when i am tryin to directly print from the preview,

it is showing the error

Error in spool C call: spool overflow

the scenario is for a range of document printing i am looping the SMARTFORM function and for the printer request not to pop up many times i am using ur code.

everything is fine till the preview, but printing is the problem.

please help

i want a spool request to be generated

Yes you can do that.

The reason why that pops up is that we haven't passed the print parameters to it.

In the parameter SSFCTRLOP, pass X for NO_DIALOG and clear the value in PREVIEW.

In the parameter SSFCOMPOP, specify the printer name in TDPRINTER, set TDIMMED to X.

This should fix the problem.

Regards,

Ravi
