Dear Guillermo,

To give a clear answer to your query.

I have the following.

when you are in one window and then go to the contents of the window in change mode.

There you can see that in the command editor i.e the editor where you are writing your code.

_ ______________________________________________

_	______________________________________________

as illustarated above your editor looks like.

in the left box you give commands like /: or /* or a paragraph format which you have defined like 'P1'.

By defining this paragraph format you want to tell that the text which is written on the right box will use the font defined whether it is BOLD / Italic etc. whether it is justified or left-aligned etc. and also in the same paragraph format you will define your tab stops.

So when you write ,, then it is equivalent to one tab stop. i.e how much margin you want to leave for this paragraph line to start from you page starting.

the symbol <Z> represents a character format only catering to the characters defined in between <Z> and </>This character format is defined through the push button charcter format in you form editor.

the </> indicates the end of the character format.

&BSID-HBKID&.

& represents that the value will come dyanmically which has been defined before in the Driver program or in the script itself through the DEFINE command.

The BSID-HBKID represents that the value will be got from the table BSID and field HBKID during runtime.

I Hope things are far pretty clear in this way.

If you still have any more clarifications please come back with any further queries, but not forget to reward appropriately.

Thanks & Regards

<Z> is a character format. Go to SE71 and look at your form. Click the Character Format button. Double click on the one labeled "Z" and its attibutes will be listed on the screen.

Hi Guillermo,

The ",," stands for tab. If there are tab stops defined for the paragraph format then the text will print at the next tab stop, otherwise, it will tab five spaces. The "<Z>" means that there is a character format defined as Z and the variable will print using that character format. The "</>" means to stop using the character format.

Hope this helps,

Becky
