Hello Bala,
I wouldn't SUBMIT the same program to get the Spool number. You can achieve the same by [NEW-PAGE PRINT ON|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_702/en/abapnew-page_print.htm#!ABAP_ADDITION_1@1@] command.
Check the code snippet i've provided below:
DATA: spfli_wa         TYPE spfli,
      print_parameters TYPE pri_params,
      valid_flag       TYPE c LENGTH 1.
START-OF-SELECTION.
  CALL FUNCTION 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
    EXPORTING
      no_dialog            = 'X'
    IMPORTING
      out_parameters       = print_parameters
      valid                = valid_flag
    EXCEPTIONS
      invalid_print_params = 2
      OTHERS               = 4.
  IF valid_flag = 'X' AND sy-subrc = 0.
*   1. Write the output to the output list(no spool is generated)
    SELECT carrid connid
           FROM spfli
           INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF spfli_wa.
      WRITE: / spfli_wa-carrid, spfli_wa-connid.
    ENDSELECT.
*   2. Write the output to SAP spool(no list is displayed)
    NEW-PAGE PRINT ON PARAMETERS print_parameters NO DIALOG.
    SELECT carrid connid
           FROM spfli
           INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF spfli_wa.
      WRITE: / spfli_wa-carrid, spfli_wa-connid.
    ENDSELECT.
    NEW-PAGE PRINT OFF.
    MESSAGE i000(zibi027) WITH 'Spool' sy-spono 'is generated!!!'.
    "You can use the spool number (SY-SPONO) to email the list output
  ENDIF.
Hope this helps.
