With onli one form u cannot achieve this.. but u need to have two same forms .. one with Landscape orientation.. and second with Portrait orientation...

( Otherwise u can go for the SMARTFORMS , with smartforms u can achieve this in a single form )

There is a way to have first page in landscape and second page in portrait.

Use

START_FORM

END_FORM

twice one form in each having different page setting(like landscape....)

See this code:

REPORT ZTEST_LANDSCAPE.

CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'

EXPORTING

• APPLICATION = 'TX'

• ARCHIVE_INDEX =

For smartforms you can have two different pages and boh pages have different page sizes. Page -> output optiopn -> page format.

But this is not possible in scripts.
