hi guys,

what is the difference bt sy-uline and uline in sap scripts ?

Hi ,

sy-uline is a system field.

No-difference. Except that uline is used outside

the Write Statement

TO draw a line.

/: POSITION [XORIGIN] [YORIGIN] [WINDOW] [PAGE]

OR

Draw a horizontal line by setting the HEIGHT in a BOX command to 0. Draw a vertical line by setting WIDTH to 0.

/: BOX FRAME 10 TW WIDTH 0 TW HEIGHT '10' CM

Vertical line 10 CM long

/: BOX FRAME 10 TW WIDTH '10' CM HEIGHT 0 TW

Horizontal line 10 CM long

ALSO

You can draw a line by setting the Height or Weidth to 0

and add a frame. E.g. a horizontal line:

/: SIZE HEIGHT '0' MM WIDTH '200' MM

/: BOX FRAME 10 TW XPOS '11.21' MM YPOS '14.81' MM INTENSITY 100

HI,

If you use the ULINE then it will print the total page length, but you can use the offset eith the SY-ULINE, then that much of line will be printed on the page
