Query regarding alignment of data in Application server

Question

My requirement is to download data to the application server. To get an aligned output, i need to give offset position manually for each input.
For example :
      lw_outtab+0(15) = in_itab-matnr.
      lw_outtab+25(10) = in_itab-vkorg.
          append lw_outtab to i_outtab.
        Instead of manualy giving the offset position  
Is there is any function module to get an aligned output in the Application server directly.
And also i would like to know if color formating is possible for the downloaded data.
...Waiting for ur suggestions.
Regards,
Dhana...

Hi Dhanachezhiyan,
In order to get alligned data in an outputfile to application server you could do something like this:
Define your own types (of course you can add as much fields you need)
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_in_itab,
         matnr(15) TYPE c,
         buf01(10) TYPE c,
         vkorg(10) TYPE c,
         buf01(10) TYPE c,
       END   OF ty_in_itab,
Make sure that the length here is equal to length of ty_in_itab
       ty_outtab(100) TYPE c.
Define your own tables/workarea's
DATA:  in_itab   TYPE ty_in_itab OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,
       in_outtab TYPE ty_outtab  OCCURS,
       lw_outtab TYPE ty_outtab.
Logic to fill in_itab.
    MOVE CORRESPONDING VBAK TO in_itab.
    APPEND in_itab.
After this filling logic do your trick
  LOOP AT in_itab.
    lw_outtab = in_itab.
    APPEND lw_outtab TO in_outtab.
  ENDLOOP.
And afterwards download it
Hope this sample will help you along.
