Add carriage return into a text field

[german]

Hi all,

I'm trying to write a text from a sales delivery in a SapScript window. I'm using the function READ_TEXT and the result of this function is assigned to a variable of type char.

The problem comes when the text is made up of different lines. What I would like is to see the text in the same way that it appears in the delivery, that is, divided into different lines.

How can I insert a carriage return into the char variable so it is divided into lines when printed through WRITE_FORM function?

I have tried definig a variable of type 'X' with value '0D0A' (using field symbols), but instead of carriage return, the '#' symbol appears.

Thanks in advance,
Germán

Hi Germán,

Did you ever get a solution to this problem? I'm having similar trouble at the moment and would appreciate greatly any help you could offer.

Best regards,
Noel.

Resurrecting a very old post !!!

Anyways, what do you mean by Assigned to a char?
I've always used the itab returned by READ_TEXT

Code: Select all

*"  TABLES
*"      LINES STRUCTURE  TLINE

Try using the INCLUDE command.
On the contrary, I am facing an issue with getting the same text format via a Text node, in Smartforms !
