%2Cwhat+will+be+the+possible+consequence+
%3F&aqs=chrome..69i57.1206j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

--> it will display up to 3 pages after that it will not show the records.

13.what is use of folder in smartforms ?

--> It just use to combine diferrent node into logical groups.

--> It can be used for page protection by checking the page protect check box. So
that every thing in folder will be printed on same page.

14.scenario:
Let say i have three table type in smartform table header,item ,footer , and i
want to give page protection to all this
how i will do that.

--> Make a folder , move all the nodes then check the page protection check box.

15.have you done pre printed smartforms ?

https://www.google.co.in/search?q=have+you+done+pre+printed+smartforms+
%3F&oq=have+you+done+pre+printed+smartforms+%3F&aqs=chrome..69i57.423j0j7
&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

--> Pre-printed stationary means, already a standard format of the form exists and
 we need print data as per the columns, rows in the format of the form. This
form will be used as printing paper for smartform.

Steps :
------->
A) Upload the pre printed form in SAP as logo is uploaded in the smartform by
�SE78�.
B) Go to �SMARTFORMS� ->

Create smartform , then go to �Pages & windows� --> �page1�--> �Background

Picture� Tab
C) Select the pre printed form and select output mode as �Print Preview�
because we have pre printed stationary (as the printer paper).

�Blank� � It will display only smartform data.

�Print Preview� � It will display pre printed form uploaded along with
smartform data only in Print preview.

�Print Preview & Print� � It will display & Print pre printed form uploaded
with the smartform data both in Print preview & Print.

16.difference between smartforms and script ?

--> sap script is client dependent because it is executed through Text Elements and
Text Elements is client dependent
means if u made change in development client it will not replicate in testing
client you need to do SCC1 every time to replicate in testing client.

--> you need to capture the transport of development client(100) and in testing
client execute tcode SCC1 provide the source client,
Transport request, Including request subtask then start immediately then SAP
SCRIPT will copy from development client to Testing client.

--> sap smartforms is client independent because the system generated FM is client
indipendent if u made change in development client it will replicate in testing
client.
--> sap script can't be created without main window.
--> sap smart can be created without main window.
--> Sap Script cannot be excuted with out Print Program.
--> Sap Smartforms can be executed without print program by executing system
generated FM.

17. how to copy SAP Script form , Style and Standard Text from one client to
another client ?

In real-time scenario, we might have to develop a style, or a SAP Script form or a

standard text in sandbox and then move it to the development,
quality and production systems. During such instances, we can download those
objects from the sandbox system and then upload them in the appropriate systems.
This would help us in saving time doing it all again in the development system.

--> Execute Program RSTXSCRP.

--> Choose Form if you want to Download or Upload a SAP Script form Or
--> Choose Style if you want to Download or Upload a style Or
--> Choose Standard Text if you want to Download or Upload a standard text.
--> put the object name to upload/download.
--> To download, the mode should be EXPORT and To Upload, the mode should be
IMPORT. Execute it.
--> For a Standard Text you need to put in the Text ID and the Language to download
or upload.

How will you copy a Sapscript from one client to another client & from login
language to org language ?

--> if form is available in $TMP:

execute se71 in required client

menu bar--> utilities --> copy from client
provide form name,source client target form. and click on execute

IF FORM IS AVAILABLE IN YOUR OWN PACKAGE:

execute SCC1 --> provide source client --> Transport Request

and select the check box INCLUDING REQUEST SUB TASK --> click
on Start Immediately in application tool bar --> click on yes

18.can i use table in smartform without using internal table ?

--> Yes , we can use.

Reason is if you want to print Texts using a Table format , in that case ,
Looping an internal table is not needed, we can uncheck the check box.
The purpose of the check box is to avoid looping.
