hello friends,

for the print program below.....

when i execute it i am getting only one record in the layout. (supposed to get 5 records).

so i looped the write_form for main window.

when i do this i dont get any thing other than header and footer contents.

hope i am doing it in the right way.....

plz suggest me.....

REPORT ZNEW1 .

TABLES: MARA.

DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 10,

MATNR LIKE MARA-MATNR,

ERSDA LIKE MARA-ERSDA,

ERNAM LIKE MARA-ERNAM,

LAEDA LIKE MARA-LAEDA,

END OF ITAB.

SELECT * FROM MARA INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF ITAB

WHERE VPSTA = 'KDALSBG'.

ENDSELECT.

CALL FUNCTION 'OPEN_FORM'

EXPORTING

*DEVICE = ' '

• DIALOG = 'X'

FORM = 'ZNEWLAY1'

LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 1.

CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'

EXPORTING

ELEMENT = 'HEADER'

• FUNCTION = 'SET'

• TYPE = 'BODY'

WINDOW = 'HEADER'

EXCEPTIONS

UNOPENED = 1

OTHERS = 2.

*LOOP AT ITAB.

CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'

EXPORTING

ELEMENT = 'MAIN '

• FUNCTION = 'SET'

• TYPE = 'BODY'

WINDOW = 'MAIN'

EXCEPTIONS

Your LOOP and ENDLOOP are commented out.

Hi,

Your loop should be like this:

LOOP AT ITAB.

CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
EXPORTING
ELEMENT = 'MAIN '
* FUNCTION = 'SET'
* TYPE = 'BODY'
WINDOW = 'MAIN'
EXCEPTIONS
UNOPENED = 1
OTHERS = 2.

ENDLOOP.

When writing multiple records, make sure that you have setup an element in your MAIN window of the sapscript.

/E  THE_ELEMENT_NAME
PF  &ITAB-FIELDA&,,&ITAB-FIELDB&

LOOP AT ITAB.


CALL FUNCTION 'WRITE_FORM'
EXPORTING
ELEMENT = 'THE_ELEMENT_NAME'
* FUNCTION = 'SET'
* TYPE = 'BODY'
WINDOW = 'MAIN'
EXCEPTIONS
UNOPENED = 1
OTHERS = 2.



ENDLOOP.

i am trying to say that, when i have not looped it i am getting one record in the layout. but when i looped write_form......i am not getting anything in the layout other than header and footer content.

my loop isn't working when i have uncommented it.

[RichHeilman]

That's because you are not adding anything to the internal table only the header line of ITAB. Change your select statement to be like this.

SELECT * FROM MARA 
     INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF <b>TABLE ITAB</b>
                WHERE VPSTA = 'KDALSBG'.

Get rid of ENDSELECT.

Then it should all work.

Please don't forget to award points accordingly. Thanks.
