Quantity field length is 13 before reducing just confirm whether its always suits

your reducing length

if its have leading zeros then remove those &EKPO-MENGE(Z)

else

check entire row what are lenghts of those coloums and positions in the table/tablelines

or reduce the font of paragraph format or allign every column that fits to your requirement

you can do this if the length can be reduced

&ekpo-menge(10)&

Hi Gaurav

Before u display the quantity try to condense the variable so that it will definetily fit

condense it as following

&EKPO-MENGE(C)&

If u r using Smart Forms create a program line before it is displayed and call the Funtion Module conversion_exit_alpha_output .

Reward points if solved u r prob.

Gaurav,

I'd suggest u do the alignments according to the field lengths. The quantity will rarely have all 13 characters but u better consider all field lengths while displaying them. BTW Wats going wrong with the display. Cud u be clear?

due to this field my next field printing goes to second line. which i dont want. i want all data to be printed in single line

[former_member189629]

Gaurav,

Check field lengths of all fields in that line. If needed, reduce the font size or increase the line size to accomodate all in 1 line

Hi Gaurav,

Try to reduce the font then.

i already reduce the font size to accomodate all fields but that quntity field doenst alline wiht its header

[former_member189629]

What's the line length u r displaying. Is it long enough to accomodate all fields? if not try increasing it... Or reduce the font size to a smaller size that u did...
