aligning an amount field in script

[Former Member]

Hi,

On the output page i want to print the amount value. I want that amount to be printed in right alignment. But it is not working.

I used the code as &itab-amount(R)&.

if i do not put R it goes to left alignment. I also tried compressing it too does not works . can anyone tell me what could be the problem and how to solve this one.

Thanks,

Rose.

Hi,

You can use the SET SIGN command to output the leading sign at the left or right.

/: SET SIGN LEFT

/: SET SIGN RIGHT

Hi Rose,

You can define tabs in the paragraph format you are using for the amount field.

Use these tabs and you can place the amoutn whereever you want.Also you can define the paragraph format as RIGHT aligned and use the same.

Reward if helpful.

Thanks,
