Printing and formatting data in word

[Former Member]

I am new to Abap and your help will be greatly appreciated.

I would like to dispaly data from my table in two columns in MS Word.

For example:

Net salary 500.

There should be a space before the amount. I cannot figure out how to do this. I only manage to output the info in one column. The information is stored in an internal table with one column. Evevn if I use a two column internal table, the resulting data in the Word document appears in one column. Also, how do I covert a number to string?

Thanks

Hi,

Now it all seems to work excpet that I can not print more than 50 columns in the word document. The rest is truncated. What could be the problem?

Thanks.

Hi,

Create an internal table with one field.

Save teh two column values as a string but comma separated and use the gui_download functionality to save the file.

Now when you open the file n excel it will be in two columns.

In word and text also the same file will appear in two columns

Thanks Subramanian,

I have done that but now facing difficultioes in saving a String type and Integer type into a string. I tried to cast the two using WRITE but that does not seem to work. The result is always the String part. I

based my solution on the SAP help example:

DATA: NAME(5) VALUE 'FIELD',

FIELD(5) VALUE 'Harry',

DEST(18) VALUE 'Robert James Smith',

OFF TYPE I,

LEN TYPE I.

OFF = 7.

LEN = 8.

WRITE (NAME) TO DEST+OFF(LEN).

Thanks in advance for your help.
