Hello All ,

I have a requirement to update the text field on table tcibd001. I used the standard function TEXT.REWRITE , but I found that the text automatically gets written with a "\n" character after almost 72characters.

As I need to see my data as a continuous line , I am currently retreiving the text again from the tttxt001 table and doing a search for the new line character and replacing the same. This works fine.

But I need to know if there is any other way to prevent this from happening , as i wanted to avoid this extra querying.
Is this part of the standard functionality of the text.rewrite / text.write functions ? Can we disable this in any way from the function parameters ?

Looking forward to your help! :)

Hi,

Check the Text Group (tttxt1110m000) which you are using to write to the file. You can try changing the window size.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply.
I checked the window size as you had suggested and YES if i changes this to 100 for eg , the new line character (\n) is added after 100 lines and the window shows the text line by line again , but now each line with max size of 100.

Anyway this will not solve my problem as I have more than 100 chracters in a line and I need them to be shown as 1 single line :(:(

Thanks for your help..

I think, but am not sure, what bhusan was saying was create a window big enough to hole what you neeed. Then do a text.write to a file using that window, then just do a text.rewrite to pull it back in. No searching for the new line character. Of course I do not know how many characters you are talking about.
