Hi Bhuvana,

Inthe open_form there is one exporting parametr called OPTIONS in that pass the number of copied to be printed .

OPTIONS-TDCOPIES = '1' or '2' or '3' etcc

Hi ,

In the optins dont give value 2 directly . there are lots of parametres include in that.

thats why you are getting dump.

do as following.

Data: wa_options type ITCPO.

wa_optinos-TDCOPIES = '2'.

then call the function module.

CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'

EXPORTING

DEVICE = 'PRINTER'

DIALOG = 'X'

FORM = 'ZSAP'

LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU

OPTIONS = wa_options.

Hopes it will resolve your issue.

Hi Guru,

thank u very much.

i tried in this way, error will be corrected.

options-TDCOPIES = 2.

append options.

CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'

EXPORTING

DEVICE = 'PRINTER'

DIALOG = 'X'

FORM = 'ZSAP'

LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU

OPTIONS = options.

what abt my 1st question? did u know that.

the question is

i have to print 'duplicate copy' in the print copy, if i take print a paticular page more that once.

i did this using program, but i want to know is there anyway to print this automatically in the print out.

no, just i want to print text 'DUPLICATE COPY ' IN THE PAGE. thats it.

For this you need to set the flag or count variable in your program and based on this flag/counter you can print the text in your script.

To explain you deeply I need your development because I dont have such requirment and cant change the code for you in my developments.

But definately you have solution.

Hi,

use &SAPSCRIPT-JOBPAGES& in your script .

&SAPSCRIPT-JOBPAGES& > 1 .

I dont remember exactly what it holds . But I think It holds the number of copies to print.
