<u><i>Here's the code snipplet:</i></u>

<u>MENGE1, MENGE2 & G_DIFFERENCE contains the asterisk marks.</u>

FORM WRITE_OUTPUT_LEVEL_0.

TOGGLE G_LINE.

case G_LINE.

when 0.

format intensified color COL_NORMAL. "grey

when 1.

format color COL_NORMAL intensified off. "bright grey

endcase.

G_Difference = I_OUTPUT-menge2 - I_OUTPUT-menge1.

if I_OUTPUT-DMBTR_IN ne 0.

G_Percentage = I_OUTPUT-DMBTR_OUT / I_OUTPUT-DMBTR_IN * 100.

elseif I_OUTPUT-DMBTR_OUT lt 0.

G_Percentage = -100.

else.

G_Percentage = 100.

endif.

new-line.

If not I_OUTPUT-EBELN is initial.

write: SY-VLINE, (11) I_OUTPUT-EBELN.

else.

shift I_output-vbeln left deleting leading '0'.

concatenate 'S' I_OUTPUT-VBELN INTO G_VBELN_OUT.

write: SY-VLINE, (11) G_VBELN_OUT.

endif.

some times it may happen for the field length. i.e. your displaying length is shorter than the field content legth. Suppose your field ITAB-NO contains the value 55555 but you are displaying length 2 like WRITE : / 3(2) ITAB-NO. here you can get a * before 5. Because you are specifying length 2 for displaying the itab-no. Just check the length of those fields which are giving you * and increase the displaying length.

hi,

it might be that u had declared as a field of n length and in the output the actual value of the field might be less than n.

i.e

data: suresh(10) type i.

suresh = 123.

the remaining space is filled with 0's. so check ur declaractions and debug them where u r getting * to ur fields.

or use clear statement if required to clear all the header data.

if helpful reward some points.

with regards,

Hi,

actually this happens when we declare a numeric field of length e.g 10 and the value in that field exceeds 10 characters. so, you need to increase the length of that field.
