Error "Table row is larger than 176 cm"

When trying to print out a service order I get the above message. The long text I'm trying to print out in a smartform template is 545 lines and causes the above error. I've searches OSS and found note 690836 but it's already implemented as part of a support pack in our system.

Is there any way around this error? Can I limit the number of lines I print out in include text? Or if it's too long, omit it from the print out? Should I just make the text smaller and hope for the best?

Any suggestions welcome.

Hi Gill,

If i understand your problem correct, you can split your include text into text_tab

and you can loop on it , by this way you can limit the output of lines also from your text tab.

For splitting string to text table please check the following link

After investigating further, according to OSS note 690836 outputting this amount of text inside a table on a smartform isn't possible. They recommend:

"you must switch to a normal text output in a loop before outputting the table"

Unfortunately I have no idea what this means, any ideas?
