SAP Script: Boxes and Lines appear on FIRSTpage but NOT in NEXT

Question

I have code to create boxes, lines and shade . This code is in the "Main" window of the "FIRST" page and "NEXT page.
The program prints boxes, lines and shade in the FIRST page. When "Main" window fills up with data in "FIRST" page, then "NEXT" page prints. The boxes and lines and shade do not print in the "NEXT" page.
Can some one please help ?

Vinay,
Where are the the "Boxes, lines and shade in the FIRST page"? The MAIN window is usually used to display lists. The length of the MAIN window dictates how many pages will be printed. If you have any static boxes, lines or shading (ie always the same spot on the page) then maybe you should not put them in the MAIN window.
If you must have them in the MAIN window, I would suggest that you find out which Text Element they are in. The SAPscript Print Program must explicitly call these Text Elements in order to make them appear (via the WRITE_FORM function).
If you want to print things like list headings and the like, you should pass 'TOP' into the TYPE parameter in your WRITE_FORM.
eg.
Let's say you want to display the "Header" Text Element as the heading (this heading has boxes, lines, etc) of your list.
call function 'WRITE_FORM'
  exporting
    element  = 'HEADER'
    function = 'SET'
    type     = 'TOP'
    window   = 'MAIN'
  importing....
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Pat.
