How does one populate a variable longer than 255 characters?

I have an itab with one field, tdline(132) which is like tline-tdline. The itab contains 10 -25 rows. Each row is really a max of  72 characters of text. I have a vairable V(2000) which is character of size 2000. I want to concatenate all of itab rows into V.
concatenate table itab into variable V separated by space
or similar does not work for me, because, it is putting only the first 255 characters. All characters thereafter are ignored.
The reason I need V(2000) is because I would download it as one of many columns related to a task. Each row of that extract is a set of columns plus this last column which is really an itab of texts.

Hi
U can not display more then 255 char in one cell
u should use condence to remove extra spaces comming in your string and then it'll become of less lenght then u can show it by splitiing it in multiple columns using offset.
Hope it will solve your problem..
Thanks & Regards

  • Excel 2007 to Sql server table. Column with more than 255 characters.

    Hi there,
    I am facing a problem while converting data from Excel 2007 to SQL server 2005 table. I am using BIDS 2005.I have an excel file where one particular column has more than 255 characters. I use OLEDB connection for excel file as there is no driver for Excel
    2007 in BIDS2005. I am using Microsoft Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider for Excel file.
    Next, I changed advanced properties for the column to DT_NTEXT. But when I am getting errors on execution. They are:
    [OLE DB Source [1949]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR.  An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21.
    [OLE DB Source [1949]] Error: Failed to retrieve long data for column "action".
    [OLE DB Source [1949]] Error: There was an error with output column "action" (2046) on output "OLE DB Source Output" (1959). The column status returned was: "DBSTATUS_UNAVAILABLE".

    (2046)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.  There may be error messages posted before this with more information about the failure.
    Please advise on how can I deal with columns having more than 255 characters in Excel file.
    Thanks!

  • More than 255 characters in a table text field

    Dear experts,
    i am facing a problem (in WD Alv too) that i can not display more than 255 characters in a single text field.
    I want to display a table containing a description field without a limitation of its length. As soon as providing a (formatted) string longer than 255 characters of length, no interactive form is shown on screen.
    Debugging a while, the following error message occurs;
    ADS: com.adobe.ProcessingException: com.adobe.ProcessingException: XMLFM Exception - PDF render operation exception, reason code: 0 : InvalidXDPException: Xml parsing error: reference to invalid character number (error code 14) ...
    Does anybody have similar problems to mine?
    Did anyone resolve the issue to show more than 255 characters in a table in interactive form?

    This is how i get the text with format (line feeds).
    zz_description is type string.
    My table is on a page, wrapped in a subform. and zz_description is type text field.
    Yes, i maintained "allow multiple lines" and did not limit length somehow.
    The problem arises in portal, pressing the preview button of a zform. providing a string <255 characters of length, everything works fine.

  • SQ01 Output fields having more than 255 characters

    Hello,
    I need to show query output more than 255 charaters but system is not allowing
    Here is the Error message:
    List is wider than 255 characters (generation not possible)
    I used SQ01 as t-code to create query.
    How can i show my output more than 255 characters
    Thanks

    Refer SAP Note 857823, ALV grid cannot display more than 128 characters per field and will truncate all the characters beyond if it's an ABAP program
    From my experience it will not display the field at all in SQ01.
    You need to write an abap program and split the field into two fields of length 128 and display side by side.
    Work around:  If you cannot write abap program uncheck (no display in query) that field in SQ02 and generate it. Execute your query and copy the key field use se16n to input in the key fields and use import to excel sheet function to get the required data.

  • How does one make CC the default out of ACR rather than CC 2014?

    I installed the updates for PS CC and PS CC 2014.  Now, when opening a file out of ACR, it defaults to CC 2014.  How does one set things so that it opens in CC rather than CC 2014?

    GB has two "modes": In "musical time" the units of the timeline are bars and beats, in "real time", they're seconds. You can switch between them by clicking the clock/note symbols near the play button.
    "Snap to grid" only works in the musical time mode.
    An Apple Loop is always supposed to be an integer number of measures long. So if you're in 4/4 it can be 1, 2, 3 ... measures (which is 4, 8, 12 ... beats) long. Since the concept of loops is to be in rhythm with the beat of your song, this makes sense - so it is assured that the "one" of a drum loop, e.g., always sits on the "one" of a measure.
    If your loop is only half a measure long, you can double it to make a full bar. If your loop is not in rhythm at all with a beat - well, then it probably doesn't make sense to turn it into a loop that adjusts to the tempo in the first place. You can still turn it into a "static" kind of loop.

  • HT1918 How does one organise the apple ID so that one uses the same email address to have an account on both the UL and Belgian itunes stores?

    I have in the past created an Apple ID for use with the UK itunes store, because I want to read in English.  If I sign in it seems that this ID will only allow me to purchase from the UK store.  But I live in Belgium, so I can't download from the UK store.  So I tried to create an apple ID for the Belgian itunes store.  But I want to use the same email address as I used for the first apple ID I made (because I'm fed up of having to remember which email address I used for which account).  When I tried this, I just get a message saying that the email address is already in use for another account (which I know, because it's me who made that account).  Does anyone have a workaround for this?
    cheers
    Andrew

    I have tried again using the same password. and it still doesn't work.
    I'm presuming you went ahead and set up a new Apple ID, yes? Using the same password in more than one Apple ID has worked for me in the past, but I haven't tried it in a while so the tightened security may have changed that. You could use the same password but add "-UK" and "-BE", or something like that, to make it easier to remember.
    I understand what you mean about losing the ability to deal with UK purchased stuff, but this is becoming so inconvenient that I do want to delete that UK apple ID account.  I have looked everywhere I can think of on the apple website (apple id, itunes, support etc) and I can't find a link/eplanation/contact point that deals with deleting apple ID and itune store accounts.  Surely this must be possible?
    It's possible, but Apple is very reluctant to do it, and it's not something a user can do on their own. It would be better to just stop using the UK account rather than trying to get it deleted. Just remove your payment information and there should be little reason to have the account deleted. If you really want to try, though, you'll need to send a message to iTunes support specifying that you want the account cancelled.
    On a completely different matter, I have bought my son an ipod touch.  But since he is younger than 13 years old, how does one go about using the itunes store to get music onto his ipod touch?
    You would need to buy tracks for him; he's too young to have his own iTunes Store account. To control what gets synched to his iPod, this should help:

  • Firefox update installs, but does not apprearon screen, or task manger yet is running what is going on and how does one fix it?

    I installed the update Mozilla Firefox 28. It was suppose to launch upon completion. it did not appear on the monitor screen, nor the task manager, but was running; for when I attempted to install the older version again it, it said that Firefox was running and needed to be turned off.
    I restarted the computer and tried opening Firefox, with the same results.
    After restarting again, I attempted to reinstall the update, with the same results taking place.
    I attempted to uninstall Firefox and install the new version. The same results took place.
    In the past, I could install Firefox 27 update, only now I can't for the same thing takes place. Past a certain version (19), this event takes place, but 19 and older can install it with no problems.
    I checked Firefox troubleshooting information. All was normal. I checked my firewall. Again, all was normal. Tried Firefox reset. Did not help. Tried with my firewall disabled. Did not solve the problem.
    Ran a virus check (deep) no viruses. Checked my computer system. No errors.
    I can install updates for my other programs, even install new programs; just not Firefox.
    What is going on and how does one fix it.

    Hi Amseeking,
    Thank you for your question. From your description, you tried to install the 28 update from a version 19 installation. Did you install a fresh install of 28 successfully? Where the name of the file is"Firefox Setup Stub 28.exe"? This is what is sound like happened. When going to about Firefox and searching for updates it installs over the current installation. However if Firefox was already running, there are more than one installation.
    Updating from version 19 to 28 would not be a problem. However the user data from your previous version would have to be imported to the new installation if you have more than one install on that computer.
    An easy way to tell is to search for Firefox in the Start menu to see if more than one icon shows up in the search results.
    I hope this helps.

  • How does one continue to use Mail on the early MacBook Pro, Model 1,1, that is not upgradable to Lion?  I have been running iCloud on my iPhone (OS5) and iMac (Lion) along with the MacBook Pro (OS Version 10.6.8)

    How does one continue to use Mail on the early MacBook Pro, Model 1,1, that is not upgradable to Lion?  I have been running iCloud on my iPhone (OS5) and iMac (Lion) along with the MacBook Pro (OS Version 10.6.8) since November until now.  Mail will no longer download on the MacBook Pro and keeps asking for my password.

    Mail should still be usable with your machine - but you'll need to update the settings to conform to the requirements of your system. Check with your ISP (like ATT, etc.) for the settings that will work with your Mail. Once you've updated this, you should be able to email like before.
    For example, my ISP required that I go to Mail Preferences/Accounts and make sure the details conform to your email settings.
    I have no idea of what your ISP is or what the settings might be, but this is likely the source of the problem.

  • HT201991 How does one write a review for an app?

    I would like to write a review for an app I bought from the App Store.
    "Locate the item that you would like to write a review for."
    Where? In the App Store via the internet (e.g. on my iMac), OR via the App Store button on my iPad Mini?
    "Click "Write a Review" in the Customer Reviews section."
    How? I could find no active link associated with the Customer Reviews section once I had located the item for which I wanted to write a review.
    So the question remains "How does one write a review for an app?" … and, so far as things stand, the instructions provided in the page <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3928> are, as far as I can tell useless. Certainly, the Apple website and associated instructions have become, for this long-time user, more akin to Microsoft Windows in their impenetrable lack of intuitive, user-friendly ccharacter.
    Oh yeh. To add to my 'disgruntledness' … How come there is no iPad Mini option in the Product drop down below?
    Where is Steve Jobs when you need him?!

    I have been having this issue for months, now--at least 3-4.  I updated my credit card info on my account, thinking maybe that would do it, but NOPE--can't review a single thing I've ever purchased in iTunes--not from my iPhone 5, PC or iPad 2.  Ridiculous, at this point...just remove the ability to review at all, if this is how it's going to be. SO frustrating.

  • How does one add a personal recorded M4R file to the ring tones in the UK system for iPhone 3GS

    How does one add a personal recorded M4R file to the ring tones in the UK system for iPhone 3GS.
    I have tried all sorts of ways of adding my personal M4R file but can't find the place (within the UK versions of iTunes} to transfer this file so that I can select it as a ring tone.
    I've tried also changing to the US version of iTunes and still can't find a way of doing it, although I have heard that it can be done.

    You should be able to just drop it into the library within iTunes.

  • How does one rename or even delete templates in Pages?

    How does one rename or even delete templates in Pages?

    At the top of this page, click on your name or avatar to go to your profile page. You need to have more than one product listed in My Products and the one you need to edit can't be set as the default. So, add a product if you only have one & set this second as default. Then back to your profile page where you can edit the settings, including your OS version. Then back again to set this one as default. This is just one of many, many things that the current forum software makes very difficult. I have to go "hunting" for the setting each time, it's that difficult. If I were invited to test changes or a new version, this is one thing I'd mention.
