Script Dynamic Box length

[Former Member]

Hi ,

I want to change Box length depending upon number of entries in it.

Am using the following code in script.

/E 102

/: BOX HEIGHT &N& CM FRAME 10 TW

/: BOX YPOS 2 CH HEIGHT 0 CM FRAME 10 TW

/: BOX XPOS 12 CH WIDTH 0 CM FRAME 10 TW

/: BOX XPOS 20 CH WIDTH 0 CM FRAME 10 TW

P1 ,,&ITAB-MATNR(R)&,,&N&,,&X&,,

Here N is my variable , and its value is 3 in runtime.

But am not getting desired result. Can any body correct me .

Regards,

Sandeep.

Hi!

SAPScript accepts in this case only character type variables.

So in your printer program you have to define "N" like this:

DATA: n(10) TYPE c.

So you have to MOVE the number into a character type field.

I'm using it the same way and it is working for me.

hi,

For determining number of entries in an internal table ... use DESCRIBE statement ..

i.e,

describe table itab lines v_lines.

based on that calculate the box length ..
