creating tables in sapscript

[Former Member]

Hi folks,

I have an issue related to creation of table in the MAIN window of the sapscript form. I need four columns for the table with the column headers attched to it.

Here is the code that I wrote in the text editor but it gave a different result. Could anyone help me in correcting the code?

/E - HEADER - column header of the table

/: BOX WIDTH 6 MM HEIGHT 10 MM FRAME 10 TW

/: POSITION XORIGIN '+6' MM

/: BOX WIDTH 20 MM HEIGHT 10 MM FRAME 10 TW

/:POSITION XORIGIN '+20' MM

/: BOX WIDTH 40 MM HEIGHT 10 MM FRAME 10 TW

/:POSITION XORIGIN '+40' MM

/: BOX WIDTH 35 MM HEIGHT 10 MM FRAME 10 TW

/:POSITION XORIGIN '+35' MM

/E - EMPLOYEE - body of the table

/: BOX WIDTH 6 MM HEIGHT 10 MM FRAME 10 TW

/: POSITION XORIGIN '+6' MM

/: BOX WIDTH 20 MM HEIGHT 10 MM FRAME 10 TW

/:POSITION XORIGIN '+20' MM

/: BOX WIDTH 40 MM HEIGHT 10 MM FRAME 10 TW

/:POSITION XORIGIN '+40' MM

/: BOX WIDTH 35 MM HEIGHT 10 MM FRAME 10 TW

/:POSITION XORIGIN '+35' MM

it created all the columns in one line. How can i correct this? Also in the columns headings I need to enter standard text (column names) how can i do that?

Any help is really appreciated,

thanks,

Hi ,

You have to declare Y original also as you have declared x origin.

/:BOX XPOS 2 MM YPOS 11 MM WIDTH 185 MM HEIGHT 7 MM INTENSITY 0 FRAME 20 TW

Thanks for the quick reply. Even then it is not working. it is not differenciating the two text elements, HEADING and EMPLOYEE it is appearing as text in the print preview.

I think the problem lies there. How can I create multiple text elements in the MAIN window?

I highlighted the main window and choose Edit -> text elements it created one and in the text editor I wrote the code that i pasted here.

Am I doing something wrong here?

Thanks for the quick reply,

Hi,

We need to call all the text elements in the print program itself. See any standard print program for example.
