Spool list output truncated after 255 char

Former Member

Hi,

I'm using ALV list(FM: Reuse_alv_list_display) in my report. When it is run in background, the output is sent to spool. The problem is the list is truncated after 255 characters.

Is there any way to display more than 255 characters in spool? So that it can be downloaded to a spreadsheet from spool.

Thanks

Hi,

We are running into this Spool list output truncated after 255 char calling ALV function module. Does anyone have a solution for this? We have looked install the output device with the format of X_65_1024/4 and we also set line-size 1023 in the report. After setting all of these features up, we still have the same truncated after 255 char issue. Does anyone know the solution to this issue? Please advise.

Thanks

Dear Besi,

if this is a general problem, perhaps it is worth to make an OSS call .

Hi,

in the report-statement you can define the line-size of your list. I expect, you haven set the line-size!

Try this one:

REPORT Zxxxxx line-size 300.

Normaly the program searches the the layout that fits to your selected printer (done by FM 'RSPO_LIST_LAYOUT_FITS').

Using spool, the character size limit depends on the format you configured based on printer. I have seen a format with 300 columns but the font will be very small.

This is the limit for spool requests.

Is there no way you can produce the list on 2 lines for each record ?
