sap script alignment

[Former Member]

Hi,

can we give empty spaces between two fields in the line editor?

ex, if we give 5 spaces (blank spaces) between matnr & maktx in line editor, then will maktx be printed 5 spaces after matnr?

so if we give like this:

&matnr& &maktx&

wat will be the result?

Hi Satish,

Use &SPACES(n)& to have n spaces between the fields.

&matnr&<b>&SPACES(5)&</b>&maktx& - will have 5 spaces between matnr and maktx.

&matnr& &maktx&- It will have the no of spaces in between them. If you give 5 spaces then it will have 5 spaces in between them.

Thanks,

hi

yes u can giv the spaces b/w the fields in the text editor of the sapscript form.

use the keyword for the spaces b/w the fields : &SPACE(N)& where n is the number of spaces.

eg:

&matnr&&SPACES(5)&&maktx&

HI Satish,

there r 2 simple ways..

1. use paragraph format using TAB positions.

PR &matnr&,,&maktx&

ur tab position in paragraph format is:

1. 10 PT so it provides 10 spaces

2. PR &Matnr& ________ &maktx&

PR is paragraph format

replace ________ with spaces sdn doesn't accept empty spaces. GIve the number spaces u want

given some empty space while writing the elements...

Pls Close the thread if ur problem is solved.

Hi,

Tabular points (,,) are used for alignment, that doesn't provide any spaces in between. Rather you can use the&spaces(no of spaces need)&.

Hi,

You need to maintain it in the Paragraph format, when creating the paragrapgh format give the Number of spaces for the TABS, and you need to mention ,,(2 commas) in the line editor .

&matnr& ,,&maktx&

HI!

You're right, if you place 5 spaces between them the gap will be larger.

Anyways the best and more accurate solution if you are using tabulators. SE71 - Paragraph formats.

You can access tabulators in the inline editor using ,,

For example you have a tabulator at 10 chars.

XY &matnr&,,&maktx&
