Converting SAPSCRIPT Styles to SMARTFORM Styles?

[Former Member]

Three questions:

1) How do I find the SAPSCRIPT STYLE that was used for an older original SAPSCRIPT that I converted to a SMARTFORM?

2) Once I run SMARTSTYLES conversion will all the text output in the new converted SMARTFORM be automatically formatted correctly?

3)Should I have converted the style before converting the form?

It seems too easy, but I am having trouble finding the style of the original SAPSCRIPT form to convert to SMARTFORMS. Of course a lot of my output is misaligned.

Thank-You.

1. Only way is to check the SAPScript.

2. You need to check all the texts by going through the SMARTFORM.

3. You can do it after converting the form also.

Hello Amit and Thank-You. I am beggining to believe that converting SAPSCRIPT to SMARTFORM may not always be worth the effort. We have many old SAPSCRIPT programs, that are full of unstyled character and paragraph formats, that would all need to be checked. because it looks like the formats do not always migrate, because they are not defined i the new SMARTFORM?

Would you agree?

Migrating styles at time do give problems if the scripts are created in the eralier versions on SAP. Its always better to create a new one based on your requirement and use it.
