In some cases user will ask only specific number of records should be displayed per page, but based on space availability
of main window data will populate. To restrict manually the number of records displayed per page we can use
COMMAND.

above

2. Click on initialization tab, write the query and pass that internal table to output parameters

3.Click on main window and create table & also table line with 4 columns

4. Create assign table line for header and create text for each column

Cell2 = Customer No
Cell3 = City
Cell4 = Country Key

now. Create text for every column

7. In cell 5 i.e first column, create a code by right clicking on that cell->create->flow logic->programming lines

8. In that code, write the following code and pass variables to output parameters

Cell5 = &GV_NO&
Cell6 = & GS_KNA1-KUNNR&
Cell7 = & GS_KNA1-ORT01&
