HI ,

I am having some additional sales text to be printed under text tab in Sales order , i am using read_text and printing it sucessfully,

but the problem is in printing that in a format , i am printing the characteristics and its values like(e.g)

Size item : 13 inch

end of the operation  : 6 inch

method of ope : 188

Like above , user want this to formatted as below , means 1(30) after 30 print this ' : ', I did the formatting as + 30 , in debugging internal table looks good, but when ever it print in Sales text it is not aligned properly.

Size item                   : 13 inch

end of the opreration   : 6 inch

method of oper           : 188

will the default format in editor stops from printing ? and even i transported the content of itab to word and saw, again that problem arise in formatting..how will i solve this....this sales text again i am printing in output type of the sales order , even if this sales text is not aligned i need the output type to be printed normally with indenting please help.

Hi

I think i understood your problem as ':' this is not coming aligned. What you can do is create the a paragaraph format in style and define your tabs in it. In the text element you can provide a tab between  SIze item and '":"

Yes nabheet, i am using inlcude statement for printing this text now .by the way i created a paragraph and tried alighing but it is jsut indending in left , center and right...how will this tabs act ? i am not sure about tabs..

Set your tab at a specific location in the line, like 01 15.00MM Left  would put the first tab at 15 mm from the left margin of the window....then we would do something like this, assuming that the ZZ is the paragraph format:

ZZ some text as needed,,&fieldname&

The ,, (double comma) is the tab command.  Alternatively, in our text to be included in the output, we can embed our tabs and character formats there also...
