hi

split maktx-material description into two parts

of 20 char each ie. l_maktx1 and l_maktx2

then use the following code

l_maktx1 = l_maktx+0(20).

l_maktx2 = l_maktx+20(20).

Try this

Thanks a lot richa

if u are passing the material description from printprogram to the smartform, then split it in the following way...

suppose the the variable that u are using is

wf_desc.

insert a code line in the smartform..

and write..

data : wf_len type i.

data : wf_desc1 type string.

data : wf_desc2 type string.

wf_len = strlen(wf_desc).

if wf_len > 40.

wf_desc1 = wf_desc+0(40).

wf_desc2 = wf_des+40.

then use those two variables(wf_desc1, wf_desc2) now for printing....

hope it works...

You would have to get half of the word on your next line. Try this as a reference

&SPELL-WORD0(60)& This will print the words first 60 characters in the first line, in the next command you could write &SPELL-WORD61(40). This is just an example. You would have to check the total length.

this would work for sure.

Thanks
