How can I dispaly the total number of records that is in my internal table in the form?

hi,

use <b>describe table itab lines w_line.</b>

before calling write form.

print the same variable in script &w_line&

Hi Shaheen,

That is the way to do it(Ananth's).

Make sure you are doing it in the correct text element.

If you are calling the write form with text element 'MAIN1', then yo umust have populated the V_lines using the describe statement before the call to the write form.

Can you show your coding?

V_LINES TYPE SY-TABIX.
DESCRIBE TABLE IT_TAB LINE V_LINES.

YU can use the Describe statement to find the numberof lines in the itab.

describe table itab lines v_lines. "V_lines wil have the number of records in the itab.
